https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/ar...r-pete/602755/ i got to it with this article https://www.theatlantic.com/internat...oomers/602680/ i'm somewhat depressed after reading that. i have trouble seeing any outcome other than the one depicted in Hunger Games where the rich get richer, the poor poorer, and eventually the poor used for sport...

what we are seeing in the US right now is what happened to india in the 80s, only their economy didnt go through a sort of depression or.. what do you wanna call 2008? recession? and their government doesnt have the flexibility ours does to cope with its own market. I like to find faith that we can still pull through and make it. also.. i ate way too entirely much for being on shift.. we got food left over for the nights folks... im also completely full on my eggnog intake for the year |

The news reports that the biggest group moving to Treasure valley are people from other parts of Idaho, then Oregon, Utah, ... Cal is like 5th, but I guess Californians are an easy target. I knew there would be some emotional challenges with such life changes. I'm all better now. |

Had an excellent thanksgiving. Got a couple USDA prime ribeye steaks, did them in the sous vide, then seared on a red hot charcoal grill. Best steak I've ever had. It was like cutting room temp butter. So good.
Hope you all had a great thanksgiving, and you Canadians had a good Thursday. |

The fact that going all the way back to the Neolithic and extending to the Normans much of the population of what would eventually become England were wiped out by the next group to move in does not seem to be common knowledge since people think that the world started sometime around 1400. There is likely not one square inch of land on the planet that is occupied by the people that originally settled there. To expect everybody to just leave everybody else alone is just not something that will ever happen.

I figured as much. It's still a big deal for those of us that have experience being the outsiders. Moving to a new place involves traumatic loss as strong as any other. I counter with humor the same way I do with most shitty things that I have to endure.
