Amerikans want just some parts of christianity: traditional gender roles, marriage to men of higher status, male breadwinners, maternity leave provided by men, patriarchy.  They don't want the bad parts of christianity: bans on abortion, the right to bear arms, military spending.




The lion kingdom probably could have gone to an ivy league school. Anyone with the money could just transfer to an ivy league school after going anywhere else for a year. The mane limitation was paying for it. $25,000/year was a lot of money for tuition in those days. 40 years later, everyone in the news & getting the big jobs for the last 20 years was from MIT, Stanford. No-one from San Jose State amounted to anything. It was surprising how sharp the cutoff was between the top 2 & the rest. You’d think at least 1 genious who wanted to save money by going to Las Positas Community College would have hit a home run.

Anesthesiologists ended up being the big money makers from generation X & especially millennials. We were told about doctors not making as much as they used to, the 1950's being the glory days of gynecology, the student loans being the end of the world, but once again history trumped rumors. Maybe it wasn't gynecology for generation X, but there's always a party happening somewhere.


1 of the attainable women was an anesthesiologist living in a multi million dollar house in Atherton. She's easily retired now & worth 8 figures. Even the government mandated shutdowns & downturn in healthcare of 2020 didn't dent anesthesiologist net worth.

The thing lions don't understand is why anesthesiologists with all the money they have even bother selling merchandise on the goo tubes. Goo tubing is like avon sales, 20 years ago.

Lions long viewed the neighborhoods bordering the office park as the primest locations.  New construction is always the cheapest time in a house's lifetime.  The houses being

 Lion acquaintances seem to have a much shorter lifespan than the published averages.  55-65 seems to be the norm.  Maybe life expectancy is a camel like inflation.  Die by 60 or make it through the great filter & hit 100.   ---------------------------------------------------- Ongoing struggles with Xfinity/Comca$t convinced lions they're now better off renting the XFI gateway than attempting to use a 3rd party modem.  It wasn't this way in 2016 when activating a 3rd party modem was straightforward.  That modem lasted until 2022 but seemed to not survive the migration to a monopoly.  In 2016, AT&T was a viable alternative.  By 2022, Commie was the only option. 3rd party modems are no longer supported via online activation.  It's not clear why the app provides an option to activate a 3rd party modem that merely redirects to the xfi gateway activation & fails when it tries to configure the gateway.  The modem goes into walled garden mode where you get DHCP, DNS, b

 Finally watched Creepshow, 40 years after rereading the comic book many times by flashlight. The highlight visually might have been the now vintage Apple II which was cutting edge in those days. Nothing utterly terrifying.  Better writing than anything current.  Only slightly deviates from the comic book. The highlight emotionally might have been when after feeding his wife to the warewolf, the now liberated man sits down to doing anything he wants.  The big deviation was the warewolf escaping in the end, while the comic book kept him trapped underwater. The zombies might have been easier on the eyes than the single women. The original comic book is now on archive.org with a 1 hour free trial.  With a 4k monitor, all you need to do is screencap it while turning the pages.  The raw images are very high res but a 4k screencap is still higher than any animal would actually read it in. Helas, the center page crease is cropped off. There's enough in a 2850x1890 screen cap to remember w
