The best thing you can do in the current environment is a) vote for change, vote.gov to register. b) pay down high interest debt to and maintain an emergency savings account to avoid future debt, the debt trap will put you behind for DECADES if you take on high interest debt. c) save 1-20% of your income in a tax deferred account like a traditional/Roth IRA, 401(k), HSA, whatever you qualify for. d) buy a starter home in a decent neighborhood the moment you can afford to do it and talk to a mortgage broker about how to get in good shape to own a home.

You may not like the system we're in, but that's how you start to succeed in it.

AI profile pic detected. Opinion discarded.

But I have an AI profile picture because I couldn't find a nice enough Communist aethethics spaceship image around...

That’s at least… interesting. There are still other options you could have taken. Why not a painting or drawing of Vostok?

A generic ai filter cat? Booooo

lol

And actually, I wanted a Soviet, or other Communist country's dirigible as a profile pic but I couldn't find anything that would look good and neither the AI made anything I liked so when I managed to have it genarate this I took it.

But thinking about it now I could probably try making/editing something myself as well, like I've done in forums long ago. Just need a good idea.
