The first few days will be a fucking train wreck

That will end up in a dumpster fire then later another train wreck.

And with exception of having to recalculate my retirement plans, I simply will not give a fuck.

The asshole voters wanted cheaper eggs and what we are getting is "it's going to be hard times for a while and then it will be great" bullshit.

Since I would rather get some freedom and die early than wait forever only to be too old to enjoy any of it in a destroyed country.

I’m glad I retired 3 years ago. At least I’ll have gotten 3 years of rest before having to have to go back to work.

It's going to be an ongoing train wreck and on top of that the oligarchs will be smashing everything with a sledgehammer.

Anybody have any nuclear threats on their bingo cards, yet?
