my best friend is a carpenter and woodsman type guy, n is planning on buying a small piece of land in oregon that has this river going thru it and hes going to just quit his job and move there and do odd jobs and grow food he says. he says whats the pt of working all the time, for what? what are you saving for or doing this for? to live? when you're done? which is when? never? when you're super old? why not just live now, while you're alive. i think hes got a good pt. i hope he succeeds, and i will miss him.

I'm sure if you ask nicely he'd let you join, you can even start a commune down there.

they aren't required to treat non life threatening issues. a tumor that may kill you in 6 months isn't mandatory but a bullet would is

my dad had a hunting camp at one point

at one point some new guy moved into the area and camps started being broken into. mostly city people's who only came up to hunt, but people were pissed cause he was also doing dumb poo poo like leave doors open so weather and animals get in which was viewed as a dick move even when robbing city folks.

one day the guy everyone knew was doing it came back and his house after a hunting trip out of town and well had been blown up with friggin dynamite. (this was back when you could be like "uhhh i have a... uhhh... tree stump" and buy the poo poo with cash if it was under a certain amount)

weirdly nobody heard or saw anything :shrug:

he moved away

you gotta have seniority you can't be the new guy on the mountain complaining about how your neighbor stole your fridge and shot your dog, that guy's been around for 40 years and anyone you could possibly complain to about it is his cousin and getting invited to come have a dog burger at his new fridge party

you can take care of him yourself but that's how Hatfields and McCoys poo poo starts and honestly, who has the energy

Wyden is definitely way better than the average Dem Senator but the ways in which he’s good are different from Bernie.

And in terms of a potential presidential bid- have you listened to him speak? His oratorical skills are a definite liability.

I haven't heard him speak to a large crowd, no.

And to be clear I do not think he's some kind of socialist wunderkind, but if the Republicans are smart and put up some weirdo libertarian rather than doubling down on the Nazi poo poo, he'd make a much easier to stomach compromise candidate than Biden or Dick Suckerberg.

I'd vote for a big friendly labrador as president as long as it promises to have a tough looking bulldog as secretary of defense, a very loyal belgian malinois at the DOJ and a funny little chihuaha as the press secretary.
