  • People realize trump, elon, and the magat cult want the government shut down? This is exactly what they wanted. They want it shut down until trump is in. Go listen to what Victoria Spartz, one of the 38 repubs that voted no said on fox news. They want Johnson out as speaker and elon in. And every other Republican is blaming the dems for shutting the government down, not those 38. THE CULT GOT EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANTED.













  • IT was particularly oversaturated, but STEM as a whole has been hit pretty hard. There’s no startup money left so you either got established and are no doing government contracts, are somehow still convincing other billionaires to give you money because you’re a billionaire(the last place I worked at), or just shut down. The tech bubble burst. With interest rates up and the economy on the edge, money is “better” put into buying real estate. Buy single family homes and rent them. Buy franchises for the land, sell the company, the lease the property.


  • Polyurethane, a pretty common plastic, which is usually in a volatile solvent but can also be water based. Its very cheap and easy to apply. It adds new material to the surface every time and is often pretty thick. Oil soaks into wood and doesn’t protect the surface from mechanical damage. Its also expensive and difficult to apply. The low spots are where the decades of plastic have chipped away revealing the original wood. If you got a sample from the high spots you could count the layers like rings in the wood and figure out when the put the bench in.
