Years ago we had the kids at the zoo. My son noticed something and called his little sister over (10 & 8 at the time). He said "look, those kids are about to get in trouble" while pointing at some kids chasing a swan on the other side of a river. Sure enough, their mom noticed and started yelling at them. Which made my kids erupt in laughter like it was the greatest thing.

Clearly you have never experienced fried cheese curds on a veal parmesan sandwich with ranch dressing.

Ok, neither have I but where I live in Wisconsin I'm pretty sure I could get that within thirty minutes or less.

Also poutine on a bun.

But an insane president will bluster about things he doesn't want to actually do (like Canada and Greenland) as a distraction to keep us focused on this nonsense while he raids the government coffers for all the retirement money he can get his grubbly diseased hands on.

I got a silent Gen dad, and a boomer mom, and I am a younger Gen x. No, I'm definitely not. Most of Gen X had silent Gen parents. Most millennials had boomer parents. Obviously there is some bleed over.

I think that went right over your head. No one is blaming millennials here. That's just the string of events that led us here. I didn't say anywhere that millennials did any of that. Seriously you guys are just as easy to trigger as boomers.

Ok.

If teleportation gets invented, countries will cease to exist. Instead you will have Polities (polity). Boarders and location would have nothing to do with what polity you lived in.

Late Gen X. I'm an outside watching boomers and millennials duke it out like a drunken bar fight.

I can't argue with that. But as a late Gen X, I graduated highschool at the time when my age was the wealthiest generation in human history. The politics that led us here is not just Boomers fault. Millennials, Gen X, and even the Silent Gen have blame here too. We were all too happy to see Clinton continue Reagan's pandering and then felt shoehorned into most of this by the 911 attacks. The economy collapsed and then Bush's policies totally saved us... for a few years. Then the recession hit and the Bush era legal changed wrecked our ability to regulate our government officials leaving us vulnerable to corporate slavery.

As an American, I absolutely love this.

Chains are easy. A simple pair of bolt cutters can get through fairly thick chains. A parent of wiser care giver is often the reason they get returned.
