This is the actual analysis the infographic should present. The ratio of income to debt is more revealing. All of Alabama can be up to their eyes in debt and this would miss that fact simply because their average income is lower.

Simply having dollar figures means practically nothing other than for a few smooth-brained people to look at the state where they live, see a number that isn't as much as they owe, and sigh that it could be worse.

It's such a weird movie, but so are all the Christmas movies from around this time. This one really is the Christmas equivalent of Manos: Hands of Fate.

Lucky or biased?

The UK betting market has been more accurate than polls for more than a century. It called the 2020 and 2024 winners a week or so out. The only misses have been Dewey vs. Truman and 2016, which polls also missed.

What if we just re-name breakfast "Wokemeal"?

Ugh, sorry they're being so difficult about this. That's a special kind of complaint.

But if you had dug the hole first, they probably would have complained about that being traumatizing, too.

Been right there with you. Have dressed my own livestock many times.

It's never a happy task. It's often a somber task, but practical and rational. Doesn't make it any easier. It's easier for those dong the dispatching to also distance yourself emotionally in order to get the job done and process emotions later.

In helping your ex, you also need to absorb her emotions as well. She's acting out based on any and pain and loss. Let her.

You're dong everything as right as can be done. Trust your gut. You'll be OK on the end.
