  • and SOOOOO much trust was broken globally by the Trump administration

    Trump 1.0 was kind of forgiven because well, they made an oopsie and wont do that again…

    Crimean invasion was still ignored

    and then Trump 2.0

    I do blame much of the rest of the world though, Trump 1.0 was time for them to come together and yet we had Brexit, Meoni, the rise of the AfD, Le Pen in France, Obe Nation in Australia and on and on. Sure, people point to Orban but we went from far right nazis to centre right, not exactly ground breaking and Ukraine is still being hammered by a despotic nation led by a bully and the rest of the world cowers behind their own timidity. Then we have the Gaza shitshow, Iran and the mighty hammer of climate change that seems likely to collapse civilisation being ignored.

    Trump’s not to blame for all that, even though he had his finger in the pot.












  • same way we live now? ( m and f couple)

    debt free

    electricity cost is near $0 (have a solar systems that grid feeds surplus electricity we’re paid for)

    have an ecar and ebike we charge of said solar, so make our own fuel

    live in a small rural community, lots of people DIY and grow their own food and swap/sell

    have a free bus once a day to the nearby bigger city, use it on occasion for dentist/doctors appointments, or a day out in town

    have a small acreage on the edge of town and get as much free beef as we want for letting the local farmer use it

    have dozens of fruit trees around our house

    my gf is a Chef who loves growing her own veg and fruit and cooks superb meals

    have three years of expenses as cash

    pay for water and local government taxes which is fine, get clean drinking water and the roads etc are repaired and we get a “free” library and “free” swimming pool out of it
