This is one of the biggest problems. The top conversation about women being whores misses the point completely. A good chunk of those women tend to have several babies, all unwanted and by multiple fathers, in order to get government assistance. They're keeping the numbers up.
It's the educated, working millennial and Gen Z crowd that's bringing the numbers down. The so-called DINKs (double income, no kids). That is the trend right now. Adults in their 20s and 30s refuse to grow up and evolve past video games and sports and social media, and they never settle down to have kids, even when they're married. By the time they decide to do it, it's too late and they have fertility issues, if they even make that decision.
I'm in a DINK marriage, but not by choice. I had some medical issues and lost two pregnancies and could not have a baby. It's something that actually affected my belief in God for a long time because I couldn't understand why God allows so many unmarried, immature women to have multiple babies, but so many married women can't. I'm in my 40s now and have accepted it, but there's something to this. So many women who actually want to be good mothers are not able to have babies.
It is. It hurts me to see how even our smartest kids can't do things that were normal for the average person just 20 years ago. I really hope that part of the Great Awakening will be an end to technology addiction and dependence.
I teach high school. My students have asked me several times about my opinions on certain issues, and I won't give them. I tell them that it's not my place to talk about politics or ANY other sensitive issue. If they want to debate each other, I allow it to an extent, but I won't tell them what to think. It kills me to see these teachers who use their classrooms as platforms for activism. And there are so many these days. They should be fired, but instead, they're propped up as heroes. This is why America's kids are so poorly educated and so mentally ill. Half my kids can barely read and don't know their multiplication tables at 18, but hey, they know what genderqueer means, and that's what matters.
Thanks for this post. Yeah, I am an animal/nature lover and hippie frog.
Interesting. Rambo must be getting famous because I just started watching her a couple of weeks ago and now she's popping up places. My favorites are Rambo driving to "In the Air Tonight," "Dreams," and "Regulate."

My husband and I have done the exact same thing over the last couple of years. Fruit trees, nut trees, vegetable gardens, chickens, guinea fowl, and beehives. We're fixing our fencing so that we can get a few goats this summer, we hope. It's such a satisfying feeling to produce your own food and to live off the land like God intended.
Maybe plant some pecan trees. Those are nice to have. And some grapevines, too. You could also get a couple of beehives, depending on your space. And if you get some goats, you could have your own milk and cheese and sell any babies the girls produce.
This isn't a criticism, but maybe some encouragement. My husband and I both work full time and both have commutes over 35 miles. We have fourteen chickens, some guinea fowl, beehives, a few rows of fruit and nut trees, and a garden. We've spent two years getting to this point. Yes, we're exhausted, but yes, it's worth it when you have your own eggs, fruit, honey, and vegetables. There's also a lot of potential to meet like-minded people and also to be able to help your frens and neighbors.
This is the official explanation: "The flag consists of four colors: red, white, green, and black, inspired by the poetic verse of Safi al-Din al-Hilli, a 14th century warrior poet: 'Our actions are bright, our battlefields are dark, our lands are green, and our swords are red with the blood of our enemies.'" It's an interesting connection, though.
Howard Stern made a deal with someone, I'm sure of it. He sold his soul to the Deep State and Democrat overlords to protect himself. That's the only explanation for why he hasn't been canceled a thousand times over and why he's such a cheerleader now for every single Democrat agenda. What a sellout hypocrite and phony. He'd do anything for a dollar.
I have a family member who does rail maintenance for a living. He works an insane amount of overtime because the company won't hire new workers. The stories I hear sound very unsafe for him and for all of the railroad employees.
Update: Update on the King's health is "imminent."
I just found out this morning that one of my coworker's kids lost her baby at eight and a half months earlier this week. Horrible. But, with the current state of the world, it's not shocking anymore. There is so much poison out there.
I used to enjoy his show in the early 2000s and found him kind of charming. I quit watching after I got sick of all the liberal, anti-American messages he jammed into so many episodes. The one that broke the camel's back was when he was moaning about how Americans want to send so many of NYC's (illegal) cooks back to their home countries. Yes. Yes, we do. I'm sure he had a few working in his own restaurants.
These school boards are full of cowards. They never take action on anything of real importance.
Chuck Palahniuk wrote Fight Club, by the way, and is gay and also half Ukrainian. His books should not be in a high school library. On the other hand, as a high school teacher, none of my students will touch a book voluntarily and it's doubtful most kids that age ever notice these things. They're getting all their filth from TikTok.
I had to come back to add that it's nice to see employees who take some pride in themselves and their jobs. They look neat and presentable and pleasant. It's so rare these days. I'm hoping we return to a time when ALL workers are treated with respect when they work hard and not just those with so-called "important" jobs and master's degrees.
Exactly. I teach high school and have spent the last couple of weeks building this into my lessons for my juniors and seniors. They don't realize what kind of world they're about to walk into as young adults. They will not be able to move out on their own for a LONG time. And yes, this is absolutely by design.
