Word to the wise: If you only need a clean/professional hair cut, that’s wonderful and I can do just that. There is no pressure, only comfort in hair care maintenance and in a crumbling economy.

A good haircut can simplify hair care by reducing the need for excessive styling and maintenance. It can also help improve hair health by removing split ends and damaged hair, which can lead to healthier, stronger hair."

My boys aren’t little anymore.
Pray for the farmers, we need them. Amen.
President Trump's recent $12 billion farm bailout offered some relief but largely fell short, acting as a temporary "Band-Aid" because it didn't solve core issues like high input costs or lost export markets due to tariffs, with many farmers feeling it barely covered losses and wouldn't prevent future struggles, according to numerous agricultural economists and farmers
. While some found the cash helpful to stay afloat, the aid was criticized as insufficient and potentially favoring large farms over smaller ones, failing to address the root causes of the farm economy's slump.
Why it didn't fully succeed:
Late Arrival: The aid came after farmers had already sold crops at low prices, meaning some losses were already locked in.
Band-Aid Approach: It provided short-term cash but didn't fix the long-term trade disputes or create new market access, which farmers say they need more.
High Costs Ignored: The package didn't significantly address rising operational expenses like fuel and fertilizer, squeezing already tight margins.
Market Dependence: Many feel the money just offsets losses from trade wars, rather than building a stable, profitable future, making them reliant on government aid.
Farmer & Economist Sentiment:
Grateful but Concerned: Many farmers appreciated the acknowledgment and money but felt it wasn't enough to secure their future.
"Pick Winners and Losers": Some politicians argued the aid structure unfairly benefited large commodity farms over smaller operations.
Long-Term Instability: Economists note this type of one-time aid doesn't solve systemic issues, potentially leading to long-term inefficiencies and continued hardship.
In essence, the bailout provided a temporary financial buffer but didn't heal the deeper wounds in the American farm economy caused by ongoing trade disruptions and high costs, leaving many farmers wary about the next year.
Today’s weather report:
Let’s go on a road trip, back in time. (12 minutes)
Who doesn’t like a good deal? Temu has been on time and I’m satisfied! So far, so good!
I want to kill what’s killing me. No more dry prayers! I’m done playing church. Strongholds require sacrifice!
Flesh v. Spirit
It was God who was betrayed by his creation of freewill. God’s pain and suffering is now known and established within boundaries. His perfection in freewill is through Jesus Christ at the beginning of creation, now and forevermore. Amen.
Did you know that Jesus Christ was created before the angels were created?
