  1. Yeah I get how it’s tied to poor and rural citizens. I was curious about the structural and environmental racism part.
  2. I know. But you do know where you are posting? I got to witness what a couple hundred grand worth of aggy engineering degrees and fall back does to the mind this weekend at deer camp. When one ME PE brother woke up the entire camper (other CE PE brother and kids) at 0415, because maths iz hard* Very nice and delightful at 0515 when I strolled into the camp house for some coffee. *we did drink a bunch of whiskey tho, so partial pass given. Then again that extra hour was money.
  3. Buddy at ranch had a cordless one that works with his full dewalt cordless set. It lasts a surprisingly long time, and I watched them fill a 35” tire this weekend and then another 15” camper tire no issue. Don’t forget to replace the spare when you do the other 4 as well.
  4. Because maybe it’s not their #1 pet political priority? Maybe they see the folks saying I vote with them, but do not associate me with or call me that name (examples all over the board) causing them pause? Maybe their industry is better under one ethos vs the other, and that it’s more important for their business to grow than worrying about their great great great grandkids ability to have a decent tax/interest outlook. Dozens of reasons, really.
  5. Everyone understands it. They’d rather the govt tighten their spending than take additional money out of their pocket. Especially if they disagree on the way it’s being wasted.
  6. Shot a mgt 11 I’ve been watching for last few years. Those hogs that were messing my hunt up this AM going to be hurting in AM.
  7. I would fully expect you to lol if I started spouting hilariously bad takes about tech from YouTube or wherever you get them.
  8. Am I? What rules? Wah. Insurance isn’t fair because it affected me personally. Wah, a company bought back stocks. Wah, investor class. Dude gets some TikTok finance learning and comes over here to cry and get his dick put in the dirt on the reg. High entertainment that rarely disappoints.
  9. I have neither the time or inclination to find that cocksuckers tears about someone making a dollar. Feel free to leave it; I couldn’t give a single fuck
  10. How about we meet in the middle? Boats with granite countertops.
  11. Are you not familiar with the posters I was speaking about? Because one thinks any profit amount is price gouging, and posts as much about every fifth post.
  12. A classic capitalism is eViL and the root of all our problems vs proponent of tax cuts for the ultra wealthy no holds barred cage match.
  13. I made a drive thru there a couple weeks ago during golden hour. The amount of antlers just off the county road was impressive. Got ~15 pigs outside the pen, can hear turkeys and some coyotes close. No deer yet. Huh.
  14. I mean sure they are laws…blah blah Headed to ranch to hobby my hobby. Try and enjoy your weekend captifa.
  15. Diversion, which my understanding is the old Jokas Wild. It was a nice boat. Great owner, great 2nd capt, great 1st mate. Deckhand…left a bit to be desired but whatever.
  16. I do too. Won’t name them but there is a group in west matty that has kept (literally) 10’s of thousands of trout. For what? A bunch of photos? I don’t do the guide thing often but did a “trophy trout” trip about a decade ago. It wasn’t even on the table to keep. Iirc, he either gave a discount if you kept nothing, or had an adder if you did want to. We caught loads (13) of massive trout (every single person sans guide set new PB, several broke it again and again that weekend) and took tons of pics and everything went back in the water for next year. No one went hungry. Ever notice we don’t have a bull croaker run anymore?
  17. For sure. I’ve also eaten a lot of 3+ yo deer sausage. I learned a long time ago who likes what and who’s happy to take some of the excess.
  18. I don’t know a single person who participates in wanton waste, no worries there. I’ll have a fish fry in a week or two with the neighbors, and we sent a bunch home with some guys from Fl who can’t keep trout. Me and my partner, at MOST we’ll keep 3 trout every other trip (before last years freeze)…our trout fishery is in poor shape. I don’t fuck with reds but we’re in good shape there. I don’t catch many flounder because I’m a spook junkie, but will keep when I do because they are delicious and they are in good shape. Now, for the paradise. Most of these were pics I took of our partnering skiff. Hope I’ll get some from my buddies snapping some of our skiff. I can only recall a few fish out touts, everything else is spooks and skitterwalks. Big ass bull on spook jr Back to doing what bulls do This was first 4 hours. Final tally for the AM was 88 trout, 14 reds, 9 flounder and 2 pompano. I think our 2 skiffs made up for all but a handful of the fish. We didn’t keep under 15” unless the fish was in bad shape. You were either on them or it was tough, tough fishing. Wx went from 0 to 10 out of N at noon, to 22 out of N by 1600. Moved to Cat island that afternoon and fished around there. Picked some fish up here and there but wasn’t anything like Chandy, though that pressure spike probably had them on lock. Left a deposit for first week in Oct ‘24. Overall was a good trip. Sucked we only got to fish about 25% of what we should have, and once you were on them there wasn’t any stopping. I’ve been wanting to make this trip since I got a copy of plugger when I was a teen, but can’t fight Wx. It’s hard to imagine how much pressure these fish are under out there and still so plentiful. While a good day for our 2 skiffs, this wasn’t anything for overall charter. Mind bottling.
  19. I’ll doctor some of them up and share some better individual fish pics. 4 out of the 10 guys (my little college/tournament group) crushed it. The rest of the group did OK, but was slow. The best thing was the lack of “little” fish. I think I only threw back 4 that were “LA fish”.
