Why food costs aren’t done climbing yet

This is troubling more so for the pace that inflation is raging at the moment.

The idea is to trigger this collapse by massive spending under the guise of COVID recovery. It will not fool the markets, it will not fool the holders of US Treasuries and it will not fool folks who have a grasp of basic mathematics. Texas was a dry run provided by my good friends at Raytheon..I will suggest folks begin..AGAIN..looking seriously into survival training and preparation before all the lights go out once we go completely broke.

And if you’re thinking..well, I’ll get a big ass generator as backup for the home just in case. That’ll be fine for a temporary outage..but as far as when there’s significant damage to grid infrastructure (blown transformers, incinerated substations, etc..) it’s not viable for the long term. You will attract the desperate and not only that..you’re gonna get the fukk up out of those homes. Most homes connected to municipal water and sewage will see intentional reverse flows to a majority of homes as some of these plants and sewer lines struggle to handle waste..that means your house will get flooded with shyt when it’s gets to the nitty gritty.

Here we go, at the dealer hoping I don’t get raped on the repair cost, but I really don’t trust anyone else to look at this.

What’s the issue?
Check engine light code P200A. It’s a part that needs to be replaced but they still have to “diagnose it”. The part is like $200, and I estimated the labor at 4 times the part’s price. I hope that’s sufficient.

Dealer definitely had me fukked up. Talking about $1200. The problematic piece is only $216, but the entire lower manifold which includes the VCM is $350. I'm going to buy this part, print this picture out of the engine, book mark these youtube videos and find me a mechanic. I wish my dad was alive :mjcry:

Rock bottom. I was hurled to the ground by a big girl. Not too long ago, we were fukkin'. I could smell the distinct smell of poo when hitting it from the back. This whole past weekend made me revaluate my life on many grounds. Just what the hell am I doing.
