Yes, I also meant to imply that previously. It could be one reason that introducing massive election fraud didn't really raise any eyebrows. Yes, well, the fact that Donny was so divisive, and that his term was so consequential, cuts both ways. The irregularities certainly raised many eyebrows, but anyone else paying any attention either deliberately looks away or unconsciously looks without seeing, precisely because of those consequences. I suspect Donny has spent his whole life running away from the dark passenger he has feared and, having reached the degree of world power that he has, he is now going to run into himself. Could get interesting. Let's see what happens. |

I don't know nothing about that, but I have learned a shit ton about plumbing in the last two weeks.  .. oh well, hope it wasn't too bad guy. On the off chance this ever happens again in your lifetime, preparation is: valves are your friends, drain what you can and drip what you can't. At least you've got push-to-fits these days! Purddy good synopsis, but I did enjoy old school soldering.  |

(Welcome... nice to see you back.    It would take some time to tell, but let's just say that the 40+ years of hodge-podge plumbing fixes (on 30 units) all came to perfect "fruition" with a full week of unexpected sub-28F/-2C temperatures. Being without power for 4-5 days did not help. Luckily, we were equipped with off-the-grid living skills. |

How do you guys reconcile all of this with SR? Having spent months researching and going in and out rabbit holes, with this new recognition of svp my interest has waned. Seeing that it all just ‘is’- perfectly perfect. ‘I’ still don’t like it but am no longer frustrated or feeling powerlessness about it. Even the mandated vaccines, I don’t want it at all but am kind of in a ‘let’s see what happens’ place now. Feels somewhat lighter. More compassion towards those that are on the other side of this yet realising that there is ‘no other side’. Yes, perfectly so, and let's see what happens. The drama moves in/as Consciousness, and it feels much lighter not being born. |

Yes, I see what you mean, but appearances are often deceptive, and it's best - especially in times of such polarized, information warfare - to remain cognizant of our own biases. My bias has been that of an ultra-cynicism about anyone who seeks power. This led to a certain schadenfreude at the dust the Trump character kicked up in those circles.  |

At least you've got push-to-fits these days! Purddy good synopsis, but I did enjoy old school soldering. Yes, it's far more labor intensive, but can be worth it. I've found the push-to-fits are susceptible to temperature changes over time, and with pex they can take the lazy man's "plumb" out of "plumbing", with the two phenomena conspiring together for leaks.  |

I do reckon we share a similar degree of cynicism about the power game. |

I had only read/heard bits and pieces of it, but did not know it by name. Hopefully, it will provide more transparency on elections and electors. But, alas, it will likely just promote more bickering. I know, that's hard to imagine.
Forward through the fog!!
