And for screwing with the Horde's expectations. We need to be adaptable.

I'll fetch them.

5 “What to do if you find yourself stuck in a crack in the ground underneath a giant boulder you can't move, with no hope of rescue. Consider how lucky you are that life has been good to you so far. Alternatively, if life hasn't been good to you so far, which given your current circumstances seems more likely, consider how lucky you are that it won't be troubling you much longer.”
― Douglas Adams

21 Do you guys realize that when the UK eventually fully falls to the Caliphate, we are going to have to change our maps in the US?

New Hampshire becomes Hampshire
New York becomes York
New Jersey becomes Jersey (Isle of Jersey so that one won't be changed until the Muslims find that Isle)

And, the region of New England will become England

I say, it's about time. They're 250 years old. There's nothing new about them. And, come to think about it, that's a great troll move we could do right now to wind up the Brits.

Thanks for another great one.

Um, is there some clever hidden joke in the historian meme, or is it just the "learn something old" bit? (Always gotta be one I'm not sure I fully get.)

37 Thanks for the ONT and the memes, Weirddave!

Job progress:

It's not going to pay the bills but it will slow the bleed, soon (not quite yet) I will be a substitute teacher (gives me more flexibility for interviews, and probably slightly better pay, than an entry-level retail/fastfood 'hey I moved you to X shift, be here in 10 minutes' or 'I know you're off today but I need you to cover for Silent Bob').

Today's interview was more of a screening call as were the others this week. Praying that:

1) The others 'waiting for client response'/'deciding if we liked your interview *well enough*' get back to me soon....

2) That if any of these is 'the right job', it come through soon....

3) That any of these that are 'not the right job' fall away and, not to put too fine a point on it, say so instead of ghosting me....

4) That if all of these are 'not the right job', the right one show itself aggressively, so I don't miss it!

Again, thanks to the Horde and to the folks at church for prayers and support.

There are a very limited number of jobs and a LOT of applicants vying for those jobs. Plus, almost all of them have been overrun by liberals- even 30 years ago. Entry positions anyway.

Actually, I'm running for State Rep in CT. My (liberal) brother, on the other hand, is actually running for Congress in NYC.

I just got my numbers from my campaign treasurer a few minutes ago. I'm $1,180 short of my $6,700 money target, and 39 in-district contributors short of my 150 target. If I can reach both by Sunday at midnight, I'll get about $25,000 from the CT State Election Board to finance my campaign against one of the most progressive (a/k/a DSA-adjacent) members of the CT House.

I know that several Morons contributed to my efforts already. I can't thank you 'rons and 'ettes enough. Thanks to Ace and CBD as well, for putting me on the sidebar.
