There are times I find myself (was I ever lost? Ohhhh yessss) wandering the shopping aisles, perusing about for goods&services for fam and self and ultimately leaving the store/marketplace with nothing. How nice. Don’t spend. If spend, spend wisely. No better advice. thank YOU!!! If I’m still thinking about the whatever thing on the seventh …

Career, Cats & Companionship
Tucker got puckered (how has no one used this?!?) re sum of the Dums (see, e.g., fumble-tongued Stacey Adams—gonna lose this one too Boo) suggesting that the solution to inflation is to (drum roll, please) … not have kids. Many folks are waaaayyyy ahead on this. Recent report from somewhere someplace says that more young …
Failures of the Modern Age
One of my monkeys is being fed a very strict, very regimented diet … same feeding time, portions are weighed and measured before serving … the entire process is actually automatic, so I don’t have to look at that monkey anymore because it disgusts me. The plan was to feed that monkey its minimums on …
Where’s My Monkey?
Feeding the monkey pretty regular … nothing major, but every banana helps. Recently saw (but did not read, a’cors) an article about some person not paying $1 more than the minimums on debt, because reasons. If the electronic words don’t vanish into the ether, never to be seen again, might update on exactly what those …
Ding Dong
Half always thought she was a vampire. And I saw that Matrix glitch that made her eye look black. Not the surrounding tissue, but the actual eyeball. With a red gleam in the middle. David Icke (“ike” to Other Person You) said she was one of those reptilian extraterrestrials from the lower fourth dimension that …
Reassessed
After reviewing the poopshow that was spending in July, methinks me now knows … Wow! I spend a lot of money! Which means, I have a lot to spend. Which means, I can arrange a spending plan (budgets suck! budgets don’t work!) to spend less. Following instructions. Don’t spend … and when spend, spend smart. …
Can’t Afford v Can’t Pay
Methinks I should fully acknowledge that without Half and steady income, homelessness (houselessness? unhousedness?) is a very real possibility. There was some statistic somewhere that claimed nearly half of Americans are a single paycheck away from the street. Really? Just one? Not quite there yet … got some assets to pawn, some goods to hock, …
End of Month
Well that was a bummer … onto debt! May have mentioned around these parts that Half and the other half have an … untraditionally traditional lifestyle. See, Half handles the life/life-sustaining obligations (mortgage, lights, heat, cable/internet — which, funnily enough, is the highest bill after shelter … go figure who knew) and me, the other …
Infotainment
Not a big fan of the news these days. Too much opinion, not enough fact. And it’s sad that it’s both sides … and that there are even sides, I mean, what happened, happened, right? Not necessarily. Faux News claims the treasonous insurrection of Jan 6th was just ‘Murricans exercising their rights to “Stop the …
Soil & Water
I knew I didn’t need to worry about it! Debt concerns are so cliché passé … Found a fun little sciencey fact …in about, oh say, 60 years the human population will starve to death, or turn Soylent Green, because the dirt in which we grow our food won’t have enough nutrients in it to …
