"Everybody knew Trump was lying when he promised to lower grocery prices and end the war on day 1, especially his supporters"

Trump says a lot of exaggerated things that most of us realize it political BS.

I don't know about eggs but you posted about gasoline too late. Since that article the national average went to $3.13 last week and $3.17 this week. The President doesn't really have much to do with that anyway.

It the summer and people are moving around more so it goes up. That's pretty typical and for what it's worth, I know it didn't happen because of the Trump changes. 

They have been supplementing the farmers who killed all of their chickens because of supposed bird blue. I say "supposed" because apparently it didn't affect any other birds.

Nobody expected any of this to happen on day one.  Not even the extreme Trump haters.

Trump was supposed to end the war in Ukraine on day 1 presumably with the strategy you just mentioned - let Russia have whatever they want - but that was just another lie, like his lie about lowering grocery prices on day 1.  It turns out that the only day 1 promise he actually meant was terrorizing brown people and fucking over the working class.

[By the numbers: The average wholesale price of a dozen eggs was $3 Friday, down 8% from $3.27 on March 21, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data released Friday.]

Apparently you haven't noticed but egg and fuel prices have gone down so that's something. BTW ... just last night Trump said he was upset with Putin and may put tariffs on Russia depending on how things move on from here.

Peace just means surrendering and letting him keep the land, right?

Are we still talking about 1933?

Yeah.  Does this remind you of someone else?

The international order has a multitude of 'bad actors'. Best we can do for now is peace, IMO.

But, there is that line from "Dead Man Walking" where Penn's character indicates that, despite the calm expression on his face, he will still feel enormous pain as his heart is stopped by the killing drug. So, I don't know that there is an actual "humane" way to do it if "humane" in this context means pain-free.

That's what I'm asking.  In both the case of my colonoscopy and my kidney stone stuff, I had zero awareness and was fully sedated.  They could've thrown me off a building, blown me up, whatever.  I just don't get how there could be pain -- I was unconscious.

It seems like a 3 step process would make this super easy:
- sedative/relaxant
- make them unconscious
- lethal dosage
