Who knew we would make it here....? That's pretty crazy if you think about it. I thought we were so over in 2012 I won't lie

What does the rest of 2024 have in store for you? I for one am hedging my bets and becoming a christofascist in case things don't go well. I can always just say it was a joke if they do

I don't know if there's a way to quantify how different people feel or perceive time. I think my perception's skewed. 2024. Rewind stuff. It all feels like lifetimes ago. I can't even put into words what living for another seventy years feels to me.

But for now I'm just trying to beat the clock on a lot of things. I found a 9000 watt generator in the garbage and I decided to make that my focus on electrical output for my house. I've found the way to make it run without gasoline, but the challenge is all the mickey mouse shit I have to put up with. Salvaged parts and not enough tools. Essentially what I'm doing is making a large scale, fast running version of a grandfather clock to power the thing. Hopefully before winter, or before my money runs out and I have to shut off the power to my house.

I'm dumping a lot of effort into making big mc thicc paintings and selling them with an art brokerage, hopefully for some bursts of income every now and again.

I made a battery run off of water vapor, I proved a theory right that I could build a battery cell with pure carbon dust from wood ash, and I've managed to rip gold out of scrap electrical circuits to make one battery electrode that's almost indestructible to whatever I throw at it or pair it with other than carbon.

That all sounds like a lot, but I figure it's just bullshit fueling innovation. I'm building machines with the intent to outlast me in the event that my heart gets me. I'll be gone but what I built will still assist my family members.

My cat's also probably facing her last year. She's 23. Last personal connection in my life. Dunno how I'll take it or what it'll do to my morale.

So I dunno. Let's just be fair about it and call the year 50/50.

It's been a hell of a ride since 2012.  My country has endured hard time since 2016.  Still hoping to get into a house and raise a family.

I know what it's like to force put on airs to fit in with the Christian Nationalist crowd, day in and day out. The job I was working when I bought my house more or less depended on it. I got a huge promotion because I went on a rant about the WEF and the Great Reset to impress the owner.

It drove me crazy trying to be someone I wasn't and it will be an enormous source of dysphoria for you. You shouldn't wedge yourself into that shape, even to save your life. There are other ways to get out of a bad situation. I don't have any suggestions for what you might do, but don't go full Maga just to make it in Trump's America, please.

The tone in OP is obviously one of jest, don't worry Solonoid. I hope you are doing okay  :)
