When paypal started refusing donations on ideological grounds, I closed my account I had had for 20 years, and I told paypal my reason. ICCF (International Computer Chess Federation) is now accepting payments other than Paypal, I can play in their tournaments again!

This can be our new line, forget going against my religion we can just say they don’t follow our values, we can discriminate against who ever

Quite correct, sir! We need to be pushed farther before we start risking our jobs, but it is coming. About 30% of truckers are independent owner-operators who have had good times lately because there simply are not enough truckers to move all out goods.

Even the company truckers need to be paid a premium to go into NYC (delays, congestion, tolls, danger, etc) and those premiums will only go up. At some point, people will say "screw it, simply isn't worth the trouble" and the rates will start to go higher. At some point, regularly supplying the largest cities becomes untenable just as it did to Rome around 470 a.d.

A friend’s brother took a job in Chicago. The Weekend before starting he drove into town. At the first stoplight a car full of black men pulled up beside him and they pointed guns at him. He turned around and went home. Monday, he called in and quit.

Are you saying a bakery should be forced to make a gay wedding cake?

I’m rooting for the Muslims now.

I’m not really. I’m just disgruntled.

I’m slowly removing myself from things that bother me.
I’m getting back into daily meditation and reading books.
Tv, most movies, and sports have been near completely eliminated.
Last is weaning off of all news.
I have an addictive personality, so moderation isn’t a strong trait for me.

Used to be a big fan of sports. But most of them suck now. Not all movies are bad. If they are able to stay to the script like Tom Cruise, it's still entertaining.

Last is weaning off of all news.

Easy to do when Fox News fired Tucker Carlson. Now just have to stop reading the news online.

I don’t watch any news. I only read it on here.
I stopped for 5 months or so recently. Time to do it again.
We’ll see if tomorrow is day one…

Not much is happening anyway. The election is not for another year. Good luck sir.

Money is money. Money managers should stick to managing money. Artists, however, should be free to create or not create in accordance with their respective values. So if a cake decorator doesn’t want to decorate a cake for gay weddings, that’s his prerogative. Find someone else.
