Because of tariffs and recession fears, Americans are more likely to buy a sedan instead of a pricey SUV or truck.
But Detroit doesn’t offer any sedans. Foreign automakers do.
In Fast Company, I explained why car bloat leaves the Big Three uniquely vulnerable to Trump’s economic chaos.
In 2016-19, the Brexiteers obtained Brexit, and then didn’t know what to do.
In 2024, the Labour Party obtained power, and then didn’t know what to do.
In both cases they were the proverbial dogs that caught the car.
The absolute last thing I want to end up with is being homeless, with no place to go, and boarding with some fam carries some risks of loss of privacy. But, like I said, in a storm, any port has to do.
In any case, my struggle continues. Any help in donations you can give would be highly appreciated and welcomed. Some decent vibes and/or prayers wouldn't hurt, either.

I wish North America had Krampus parades like Austria and Germany do.
In related news, I would like to file an official complaint with my ancestors for abandoning this tradition. They should have included their descendants in that decision. 😛
(But, seriously, this is refreshing when compared to the social pressure to always be happy and sugary sweet as Christmas stretches itself out over multiple months).

It’s an absolutely bonehead response. And I realize that every politician is and must be a product of their electorate – and who knows what this guy’s electorate is like — but dammit, you find find a better way. You just do.
In the meantime, Democrats in Minnesota were selling a trans flag Minnesota shirt front and center at the State Fair. It’s not like it’s impossible for a major party to publicly stick up for queer people. Can be done, folks!
The most important thing I've learned in 8 years is this: Authoritarianism causes people to think and do things they never anticipated they might think or do.
In 2016, every GOP senator despised Trump. Now, almost all of them would gladly kill or die for Trump.
Your MAGA neighbor, parent, or spouse, who loves you, might one day murder you. As unthinkable as it seems now, any of us might one day commit murder for our führer.
