The Untold Harm of the "Transgender" Movement on Wives and Families

Image
  The burgeoning "transgender" movement in the United States shows no signs of being curtailed yet. Every time one visits social media...or just about any media...there is a plethora of propoganda promoting the "transgender" lifestyle.  However, any comments or articles that seek to point out the numerous health, psychological and emotional problems with this movement and lifestyle are usually squashed pretty quickly under the banner of "tolerance." We are told we must accept and enable this behavior or we are intolerant haters for having thoughts outside the box of politically correct thought control. We know we shouldn't enable alcoholics or drug addicts in their behavior, but this one we MUST accept and enable because "it doesn't hurt anyone."  Believe me -- it hurts plenty of people, but no one wants to talk about that.  Let's talk about the harm of the "transgender" movement. As political pundit Matt Walsh explains, wom...

This Build for PC Computers Will Save You Money--a Review

Image
Great computer build for modern video games on PC computers will save you money If you have been wanting to get one of the modern 3D video games with intensive graphics and slow load times, you may have checked prices at your local computer store or online. They aren't cheap! Writer Mark C. has put together a list of computer components that work together effectively to build your own PC gaming computer for about half the cost of buying one. The list is easy to follow and links to the appropriate parts on Amazon. When possible, he has provided optional links to allow readers to build a i5 non-streaming build or an optional  i7 streaming build. While he was researching the article, some parts became unavailable and others shot up in price, so he redid it to be up to date for publication. However, the prices and availability are subject to change at any time, so if this idea appeals to you, it would be best to act on it right away while prices and parts remain the same.  Check o...

Apples to Oranges: Comparing Phone and Internet Services

Image
Comparing phone services used to be simple. You just compared landline carriers. Easy peasy. But now in the age of television, new phone, phone service and internet bundles, it is getting increasingly harder to compare the deals. For instance, the fast talking foreign speakers at Sprint tried to convince me I had to decide on THAT CALL whether or not to accept a deal on their new iPhone + extra iPhone free + phone service + plus a phone hot spot for my internet connection.  They talked over me when I tried to ask questions and finally disconnected when I asked the second guy to hang on for a minute while I thought about it.  At least the two people I spoke to at AT+T spoke better English and spoke slower and actually listened, but I still got disconnected when the guy named something like Jamai put me on hold to check rates. At least I wasn't getting a bunch of fast talking jibber jabber about setting up my second free phone for a with a hot spot RIGHT NO...

Pyramid Schemes: How to Identify & Avoid Them

Image
Pyramid Schemes: How to Identify & Avoid Them There really is something called a pyramid scheme, and I will get into that in a minute. First I want to clarify that the term "pyramid scheme" has been misapplied by many as a term to describe all multi-level marketing businesses (as well as big government and capitalism -- see t-shirts below), and the purpose of this lens is to clear up some of the confusion the term "pyramid scheme" brings.

Farmers Insurance & ServiceMaster - Two Companies That Fail Their Customers

Image
My mother's vintage eyelet blouse, packed wet in a box of gardening tools and dirt by ServiceMaster I am so tired of dealing with Farmers & ServiceMaster, and their cozy little relationship. They turned me over to a new women 2 weeks ago perportedly to help make progress with SM. She is supposed to be over their vendors. I think she must be an attorney, because all I am getting now is double talk designed to cover BOTH Farmers and SM's respective backsides. Here is my story: After a washing machine hose broke in the night and flooded my house with water, I called ServiceMaster as soon as my adjuster gave me their name and phone number. Of course I called ServiceMaster -- FARMERS INSURANCE RECOMMENDED THEM. Westmoreland china that belonged to my aunt and antique pottery my mother brought back from Greece in the 1940s SM showed up over 24 hours after I called them even though they were supposed to come in the 1st 4 hours; broke a toilet and sink; ruined my kitc...
