Changing Tracks isn’t Starting Over from Ground Zero—from Graphics Design to a Hairstylist

Totally different career choices this man pursued, and, yet he was able to tap into his skills he’d acquired from graphics design, and put it into his new line of chosen career path, hairstyling…translated…

When He Was Lost, the Line from “Ladybird” Moved Him, “Don’t You Think Love & Focus are the Same Thing?”, He’d Started Contemplating on, When He’s at His, Highest Level of, Concentration………………

“That very first day of class I’d, cut my, hand.” Tai Huang recalled five years ago, when he was in that very first barber course, he sounded, very, hyped up, like the injury was, a medal that marked his, adventurous, journey.

That was the year he was, thirty-three, he’d worked in graphics design for nearly a decade before, and decided to switch tracks to become, a hairstylist, to now, his fifth year since his switch.  Although these two paths are related to aesthetic, but, in graphic designs, you work with a computer, and in hairstyling, you’re dealing with the heads of your clients, no matter it was the techniques, the laboring of the body and mind, the necessities of social interactions, the two are, completely, opposites.  I’d known many graphic designers in my circle, but this was the very first time that I’d heard that one became a hairstylist, so I was more than curious of the turns in his life, and I’d, admired the process of his career, switch.

The Enlightenment from a Dream

Tai loved doodling and art since he was a young child, in his technical high school years, and university, he’d studied in the design related majors, and so, naturally after he’d graduated, he’d found a job in graphics design; after working for four years in a famous designer studio and publisher, he’d taken the cases on his own for three more years.  The three years of taking the cases on his own, he’s schedules are freed up, but, there’s this lack of reliability of his source of, income, and, as he’d begun jobhunting, he’d selected a tech firm, and, was put in charge of the designs of the companies Cloud sales pitch.

It’s quite busy, working in the tech industry, despite he’d felt fatigue from the repeated communications, but, the wages were so much higher than the creative industries, so the upsets from work he’d felt, would quickly, simmer down.  By 2021, the pandemic messed up his original balance, the designing part usually takes more of the graphic work than the production, for the social media groups to use.  Although, he worked from home then, he was forced to work overtime a lot, plus one time, his higher up manager questioned his performances, it’d made Tai doubt himself, that he may no longer be fitted for this line of, work. 

Tai wanted to quit his job then, but didn’t know what his next steps in life was.  He’d realized, that for the past decade, he’d been trapped in the vicious cycle of “job hunting, getting the hang of his job, feeling the pains, because the work didn’t fit to his interest profile, quitting”, although finding a graphics design job for himself again wasn’t difficult, but he couldn’t imagine himself ten years from then, doing the same job.  “The job description of designing is basically solving problems for others, you basically had to satisfy your managers, your managers’ managers, along with the needs of other departments in the firm, until all who are related to the project is completely, satisfied with what you put out, and yet, all the initial passion I took into the designing all got, abrased through this, whole, process.”

There’s the two options of the top of the ladders for graphic designers, you either open up your own work studio, or you make it all the way up the ladder to a brand company as a manager or a director.  And Tai clearly knew, that neither was what he wanted, as he’d felt lost, the line from the movie, “Ladybird” touched him, “Don’t you think love is the same as focus?”, he’d begun thinking, what he’d done, that’s kept him focused at the most?  The morning following, he’d had a dream, that he was barbering someone’s hair in a space.  The day following, he saw a poster in a café that had, “let it come, let it go, let it flow.”

The Hundred-Day Record Refresher Course

Thinking back to it now, the heavens had, delivered his exams in his life to him one right after another.  I curiously inquired, how long before he took action.  “I’d immediately looked it up!  There’s the offer of ‘Making you into a professional hair stylist in a hundred days!”, he became motivated, but, as he’d checked into the details, he’d found that the courses run from Monday through Fridays, from 9:30 in the morn to 5 in the afternoon, and the program is for a whole of, six months, that registering meant he’d had to quit, what’s more awkward for him was the closest time was in December, and if he’d signed up, he wouldn’t be receiving the year-end-bonus from his graphic designs firm.  But the next time the courses start is in June of the, following, year………he’d situated himself down, calculated the funds that he currently had, if he pays for the nine hundred thousand dollars of tuition, could he still have enough to pay for his rent, his life, for six more months without working.  After two months’ worth of considerations, he’d signed up for the course at the end of the year.  “Later I’d found, that the June session the year following didn’t make, and the same course that came afterwards never made ever again.”

There are many industries that are related to the aesthetics, why would Tai consider hairstyling as he was contemplating switching tracks?  Tai thought for a while, and recalled something in his past.  When he was studying in the university in Yunlin’s countryside, he’d not known where he can get a haircut, so he’d, gave himself his own haircuts, those were the days without YouTube videos, and he can only go by his feel, but, nobody noted that something was up with his, hairstyle.  Until a bit later, a classmates asked Tai if he could trim his hair for him.  “He was too shy, and felt uncomfortable, having to tell the barbers at the salons what he wanted.”  And Tai had been trimming this classmate’s hair since college, to now.  “I’d thought back then, this classmate was willing to be my client for over a decade, there may be more like him.”  Tai viewed this classmates as a godsent, and promised that after he received his barber certification, he will have his haircuts free of charge for the rest of his, life.

As Tai became a student again, he’d made two decision that changed his life in the future.  “That very first day of class, I’d opened up an IG account, to document these, hundred days’ worth of, course I was taking.”  The records he’d kept her simple, what day is it, whose hair he’d trimmed, how he’d felt trimming the hairs of the clients.  The second decision came, a bit after he was into his course, and needed live clients to practice his hairstyling skills on.  Other than asking for volunteers on his social media, he’d also contacted all the friends, classmates he’d made along the way, and asked if they would be willing to let him practice his hairstyling skills on them.  “During that time, there were forty, fifty friends I knew who’d come, some of whom I’d lost contact for many years, and soon as we met, I’d begun, patting them on their, heads.”

As the hundred day came to an end, Tai received the private message from his current boss, asked if he were interested to work in his studio.  His boss came from the same system as he, through the courses, finding Tai’s IG account documentations. “Those friends who’d allowed me to use his head for practice for free, became my new clientele for the first few months I’d begun working as a hairstylist.”, Tai smiled and told.

What was Missing in His Career Switch Was the Skill Set He Needed for His New Career of Choice

As he started working, he didn’t have that many clients, the first year, his monthly pay was only a little over $30,000N.T.s  “The first two years, I’d still taken the designing cases.  Before I go to work, I’d made the drafts at the cafés, and after my work is finished in the salon, I’d returned back to the café to continue working on the designs.”  The café my interview with him was in, was where he’d worked on the drafts for two years, Tai looked around the walls and the surrounding environment, seeming to be recalling his ten-plus workday from before.  It was his editor who’d gave him a case who’d introduced him to me, and the man sighed and told me, that it was such a shame, that Tai didn’t take the graphics design cases anymore, Tai told me, with the clientele of his hairstyling increasing, he’d begun taking less and less cases in graphics design.

Why does he love hairstyling?  Tai thought for awhile, then told, that as he begun trimming the hairs, he would get into that flow of mind, and the sense of achievement is immediate.  “The moment I’d trimmed the hairs for a client, I would immediately know if s/he loved the style I gave her/him, if I trimmed seven clients in a day, there are five who are satisfied with my work, then that would be, awesome, and if I had a good time in conversing with three out of these five, then, I feel, extremely, achieved.”

A new experience that came with hairstyling for him was that he got to interact with people from various walks of, life.  for guys, they come in for a trim once a month, there was a client who was healthy, who’d become his returning client, to falling gravely ill, and the medical professional told the client that he only had two months to live, “at that time, I’d thought, will he show again?” he’d paused, then told, thankful the man made his full recovery.  And there would be the clients who’d shared the stories of their lives with him.  There was a client with tattoos over his body, in the midst of the dragons, phoenix flying, there was, a cute Peppa Pig, that was the favorite character of his daughter who’d died.  Tai told, in that small studio of his, everyone who was there all listened in silence, as this man shared the loss of his daughter.

To the end of our interview, Tai presented him with a small present he’d, designed, that was filled with the stickers, the cards, the good luck charms……………he’d told, that he would present the good luck charms to his clients on their, birthdays, during Christmases, he’d given them the fortune cookies with the blessings, the slips of red for the Chinese New Year.  From when he worked in design, he gotten into sales too, and so he’d known to estimate the costs of these items, finding the manufacturers of these items, and the timing of gifting all of these items out to his clients.

First day of work in the salon, the owner asked his goal, “I’d told him I want to start my own studio one day”.  Then, I’d had to, start building up my clientele right then and there.  As some heard, they’d felt he’d wasted ten years, that had he gone into hairstyling right after he graduated, he would’ve owned his own, salon by now.  But Tai doesn’t believe there’s the time well wasted.  “I’d heard of a stylist who took the courses to learn to take shots of their clients’ hair after they’re done cutting them, but, I’d already gotten my foundations in what other hairstylists aren’t used to, sales, packaging, and photography, changing track isn’t starting from ground zero, what I’d needed was only the skills in hairstyling.”

So, this still showed, how there’s NO useless skills you’d learned, everything has its place, you just hadn’t found a place to put what you learned to use is all, like for this graphic designer turned hairstylist, he is a perfect example of how we should pursue our dreams if we have them, to learn as much as we possibly can, and, if we do all the preparatory work completely, then, opportunities will eventually present themselves to us, and by then, all we need to do, is to, grab these opportunities, and become whatever it is we’re meant to be in our lives.

The Breadcrumbs that Marked My Path, Home…

The breadcrumbs that marked my way, home, they’d gotten, lost, and they’re never to get found back again.  So I’m now, lost, without a home, I’m, homeless, because I don’t know how to get back to before, to that, home of comfort of, mine…

The breadcrumbs that marked my way, home, wish I could’ve, snuck out late at night, like that last time, but my stepmother locked all the doors, all the windows, to prevent me to go out to collect the rocks!

with their, LIMITED, “resources”…illustration from online

And now, how do I, get back, home???

The breadcrumbs that marked my way, home, they don’t exist no (so???) more, they NEVER had, and yeah, I may have been, delusional, dreaming all this SHIT up, because my daddy shouldn’t have listened to my STEPMOTHER, who is so EVIL (as that’s how the stories painted them all???), and dumped me (and I don’t even have a baby sister, to FATTEN me up as I made it to the Witch’s Candy House either!!!)

One Nation Under a, PSYCHOPATH…

And no, still NOT talkin’ ‘bout G-O-D (wouldn’t want to get charged for BLASPHEMY here!!!), I’m talkin’ ‘bout the most powerful man in the world, that’s slowly becoming, DERANGED, that felt the absolute necessity of making HIS media presence known???  Yeah, that one.

The DST is governed under the PSYCHOPATH, Trump (and he’d still checked ALL the marks too!), and, you the ENSLAVED, still got ZERO clue of how he’s leading the DST, straight to, hell, because you’re all in your, ignorant bliss, too DEAD in your comatose to wake the HELL up!

and, this is what you, and the rest of the world is, “faced” with…artwork from online

With what???  ‘bout a month before the U.S. mid-terms now (this IS October 16 today???), the situation still doesn’t look, that, optimistic one bit.

And, if the Republican continues to control the U.S. Senate and House, then, Trump will keep on, abusing you the slaves, because, he got his free pass from congress, to implement whatever FUCKING laws he sees that would put more cash into his own, pockets (and, how many billions of dollars had he already, SCAMMED from you guys over there again???).  The nation had been ruled under PSYCHOPATHS, lots of U.S. presidents had fit the “tab” (don’t believe me, go search it online), it’s just, that the Tyrant doesn’t HIDE his psychopathic tendencies, he “wore” it proud is all.

Trump wants Americans to ignore his fraud history and pay him $10 billion for charity – YouTube

And you’d still allowed him to MANIPULATE you guys, and in the very end (of what???  How the hell would I know here!), you are still NO victims of his TYRANNY’s ABUSE, but ENABLERS!

The Values of Progression Shouldn’t be Used as a Protective Cover for Criminals

How the DDP manipulates the people, proposing human rights advocacy of the MURDERERS, instead of getting REAL justice for the victims, this is a HYPOCRITICAL political party that is running this “country” (stopped being one a long time ago???) right now here, with WE the SLAVES’ consent!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The murder that occurred in the early morning hours of October 11th in Bade, Taoyuan, a twenty-five-year-old woman, Lu was returning home late, the thirty-six year-old assailant who was high on drugs, Lin tailed her into her rental place, slashed her neck, murdered her, then, set her corpse on fire.  The suspect had priors in theft, illegal substances, as he was arrested, the police confiscated etomidate, his drug test showed positive, he was in a daze, and refused to tell the motives of his murder to the police.  The preliminary investigation suggested that the perp didn’t know the victim, that because she’d come across his path, she was murdered right outside of her home.

This isn’t an isolated case.  In recent years, there were the frequently occurring news of murderers under the influence of illegal substances, vehicular manslaughter due to illegal substance abuse, and the new age drugs such as etomidate are found all over, with the lowering of age of use by the year, the line of defense against illegal substances is getting broken through right now in Taiwan.  It isn’t until June of this year did the Justice Department of our country raised the substance, etomidate into a level one illegal substance, it’d already made its way into the school campuses, the younger generations’ social circles already.  When the illegal substances are “packaged” into “medical prescriptions” by the politicians, when the addicts labeled as “patients”, the line of defense against illegal substances isn’t just broken, it’d become rotten to the, core.

What chilled the country more wasn’t the substances, but the justice systems.  Last year, a man, Hsieh murdered his wife, his younger sister-in-law brutally on the streets.  The first trial sentenced him to life term, he’d escaped the death penalty, reason for him escaping the death penalty being the eighth interpretation of the constitution from back in 2024, “the number of murdered victims need to be more than three” for the crime to constitute as “the most severe in criminality”, and so, murdering two isn’t enough to get the man to serve the death penalty.

Toward the raging public discussions on this matter, the Constitutional Court only explained that “the victims can seek out legal redress based off of court proceedings”, when the justice systems clearly stated to the people, “killing two people doesn’t constitute as a severe crime”, how does it expect the murderers to fear the law, the society to follow the orders of the law?  Since the eighth Constitutional explanation that raised the standards of implementation of the death penalty, the courts don’t dare to sentence, the justice department doesn’t enforce the laws, there’s no majority of popular votes, the death penalty got abolished.  The kneeling in front of the camera of the victims’ families, isn’t seeking revenge, but the most basic forms of, justice, while the response from the courts of this country was, “he didn’t kill that many people”, is there a more absurd justice system than ours in the world?

There’s the, whole set of hypocritical “values of progressiveness of democracy” that’s backing this “murdering someone won’t get you the death penalty.”

The DDP mayoral candidate of Taipei, in the past, spoke by the claims of the libertarian group of Taiwan.  He’d promoted the equating of illegal substances with prescription medications, taking the bad name from the illegal substances, decriminalizing the abuse of the substances; he’d claimed “I’m against the death penalty”, packaging abolishing death penalty into progressing in human rights.  Although Shen had now changed his claims, but the claims of his past days, weren’t they from what he believed to be “progressive in value”?

Some of the DDP members used the beautified claims of “reducing the injuries, decriminalization, human rights” to promote their hypocritical “values of progression”, and it’d caused “more and more who are abusing the illegal substances”, “the murderers becoming less and less fearful of getting punished for murders they commit”, and the “victims of the crimes can’t get justice served”.  As the claims of decriminalization in drug abuse get louder, those who are against the death penalty have the stage in political policy implementation, the law enforcement will only get softer in the drug busts, and the scale of sentencing for the crime will only become more and more slanted and tilted.  “addiction is medicating, murdering someone we escape the death penalty”, the costs of crimes became lowered more and more, and the criminals will only, get bolder and bolder in committing the offenses.

The value of progression should not be a cover for the criminals, nor should it get used by politicians as a motto to con the votes.  When the society can’t even implement “a life for a life”, then, it will always be us, ordinary citizens who are, going to get, victimized.  The woman, Lu in Taoyuan, the sisters who were murdered in Tucheng, all of these deaths, are the harsh price that were paid, for the DDP’s, hypocritical values of progressiveness of society.

So, this is not even about the death penalty being cruel AND unusual, it’s how the DDP, for the SAKE of promoting its beliefs of “abolishing the death penalty”, manipulated the judiciary branch, as all the grand justices were all from the party, and naturally, the dogs would, obey their, owners, and what got sacrificed isn’t just these individuals who got murdered by the perps who escaped the death sentence, but their families, and the entire justice systems, there’s NO sense of right and wrong, this had become a lawless “country” (stopped being one more than a whole DECADE ago!), where you can murder less than three, and escape DEATH, because that’s how the DDP runs this SHITHOLE, based off of their ideologies, disregarding the moral responsibilities or right and wrong!

Voting Doesn’t Do SHIT!!!

Don’t be STUPID, if you still believe, that hey, my vote matters, then, you’re, way too, god DAMN, unsocialized, NAÏVE, or not EDUCATED ‘nough (take your pick!), but we the STUPID (that’s what we all are!), all get into the MISBELIEFS that hey, our votes matter, that when we vote, we’re, voting FOR democracy (democracy my ASS!!!), you’re not…

‘Cuz people are easily MISLED, and, with all these, FUCKING (and your point being???) bad TYRANTS that RUNS these individual countries of ours (to WAY below SIX FEET under!!!), we got NOTHING inside of us, to start, REVOLTING (I mean a full blown, rifles firing, submarine, missiles firing kind), because we got, ENSLAVED by our own false beliefs of hey, we elected our officials into office, we must be, a democracy.

With the BLIND SPOT of NOT realizing, that hey, we’re all, NOT intelligent (feel free to call me out on this!) enough, to KNOW what’s good for us, we think we may know what’s good for us, but, do we, really, KNOW what’s, actually, good FOR us?  Hell NO!

and, look at us, we’re still, oh so, proud…photo from online

Which leads to my NEXT “casing point”, we need someone, to TELL us what’s best for us (like we don’t know that already???), and we look to that dude or woman with the top hat (and it’s the hat of the court jester that we misperceived, unfortunately…), and we automatically all go down on all fours (good doggies, now STAY!), and allowed these IDIOTS (that’s what they are!), lead these individual countries we live in, straight to hell.

And, those god damn leaders of the world that proclaimed, “I’m doing this for all of your benefits!!!”, are still, bullshitting us, and we must believe them, because it’s human nature, to have the need, to follow that, one leading, IDIOT down that cliff!

So, to sum all of this shit up (yeah, I know, I could’ve, skipped all of the above, and just get STRAIGHT to this point!!!): we are stupid, because we don’t have a mind of our own, NOT on the major decisions in our own lives, when it’s OUR lives that WE are each, individually responsible of, and if everyone in this FUCKING (your point being???) world can’t even keep her/his LIFE intact, how the HELL do YOU (not one of you!!!) expect this planet can turn, FUNCTIONALLY???

So, point proven here!!!

We are the culprits of what’s causing our selves the miseries, because: 1. We need someone to tell us how to live OUR own lives best.  2. We are in that follower state of mind, needing someone to lead us. 3. We are, generally, an UNINTELLIGENT species, I mean, at least, DOGS and other LOWER orders of LIVING organisms have a SET pecking order, and we don’t, we’re all, competing, stepping on top of each other, so we can get to the, very, top of that, “mountain”…

You DO see, that this is, a BIG, problem, right???

And so, voting became, a FAÇADE of how WE believe, we’d, EXERCISED our freedom of choice, and yet, do we really have a choice, and you do realize, that this IS, the problem with bipartisanship, party A and party B, switching back and forth, and NO, SUICIDE is still not on the “table” here, so, option C is, O-U-T!

Another BLONDE…

Seemed that the TYRANT that RUNS the DIVIDED STATES of Trump LOVED, blondes, take a look through all the press secretaries, they’re all, blondes, and you have to wonder, WHY???

Is the FUCKING (your point being???) TYRANT so desperate, with lust, desires, urges even, that he needs the women with the large TITS, hourglass figures (maybe, maybe not!!!), to SERVE him hand and foot, to surround himself with them, so he can feel like their KING, to see them, hanging on his every word?

the latest…photo from online

All of Trump’s Press Secretaries, from Karoline Leavitt, to whatever, whatever, whatever, to this current one, Katie Zacharia, they’d all been, blondes, in case you hadn’t, noticed, and I wonder, WHY?  Why does the president have a thing for BLONDES???

Or maybe, it’s the, dumb blonde BIMBO stereotypes that Trump’s fallen for, that he misbelieved that if he hired all blondes, he can, dominate them, to make himself, feel, that much smarter than they all, are?  And, what’s worse, is that these ladies, they all, allowed him, to live out his, DELUSIONAL, fantasies, letting him dominate over them…

the second to “last”…photo from online

Another blonde, and another, and another, these are, the “prototypes” of the PRESS SECRETARY of the WH under the TYRANT, ‘cuz that’s how he liked ‘em, to see them bimbos, with the hourglass figures, parading in front of his eyes, and these dumb blondes (blondes aren’t really dumb at all, or so I’d, heard…), still ENABLED him, and who knows, maybe, as his dementia progresses (he is, deteriorating???), he might lose his inhibitions, and, start getting “inappropriate” with them, and, they probably still won’t SUE their KING, (b/c he’s their, daddy???) for SEX crimes!

along with ALL whom he’d, FIRED…”collage” from online

Trump’s Throwing Money Around Campaigning for the Mid-Terms Elections, the Unions: there’s that Hint of Despair

Are you sure, that it’s just a, “hint”?  Trump’s finally getting that WAKEUP call that came too late, that the Republicans ill LOSE in the midterms, causing him to get NEUTERED, for the remainder of his, term in office, and covering his ass this late in the game won’t do SHIT!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

It’s less than a month until voting for the mid-terms elections in the U.S., the U.S. president, to help raise the popularity of the Republican Party candidates, had gone from lifting sanctions of Russian oils, reducing the tax on diesel fuel, to handing out cash straight, to attempt to reduce the upset of the citizens in the rising costs of things that they need to live off of.

Last week, Trump started mailing five hundred dollars to close to a million citizens in thirty states in checks, as refunds of his Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act, he claimed that the U.S. government collected the surpluses during Biden’s term, and there was also a letter included with the check, detailing out Trump’s achievements as, president.

Immediately after this, Trump announced giving more than twenty million elderly sixty-five and over ninety-dollars U.S. each, claimed that this was from the allotment of “Medicare Improvement Fund”, which directly goes to the elderly’s medical care provisions.

At a campaign in Nebraska on the fifth, Trump signed an executive order, for the red-dyed diesel fuel highway use through December 31st.  Currently, the cost of diesel fuel is at an all-time high in the U.S., the primary reason for this is due to the fuel shortage caused by the Iranian war.

the woman is wrong, this doesn’t “sound” like a bribe, it IS a BRIBE!!! Short from YouTube

Voters on Trump’s $5k checks: I don’t believe a word he says – YouTube

After Trump signed the executive order, he’d told the Republican incumbent governor Pillen and the Republican Senator of Nebraska, Ricketts, “This will ensure that you win the election, I guarantee it!”

On the nineth, Trump also loosened the restriction of Russian diesel export, hoping to lower the cost of market by providing the supplies needed.

The Washington Post points out, the newest poll result from Pew Research Center showed, that the issues of the U.S. economy had always been the what the voters cared about the most, with the prices of things rising because of the war in Iran, the voters became more and more anxious over the U.S. economy also, and are really upset over the Republican government and Trump’s performances.

Tim Burga, the chair of AFL-CIO of Ohio stated, all of Trump’s proposals seemed to be for the relief of the voters’ economic worries, to lower the people’s upset over his policies, to attempt to “buy the votes”.  Burga added, “this showed his despair.”

Trump had always leaned toward giving the voters direct assistance in checks, including the relief check for CoVid in his first term, the bonus of “government’s depart of efficiency” that’s currently being discussed over, the bonuses from the tariffs, along with the warrior bonus for those who serve in the U.S. military.  Just last month, Trump claimed, that if the Republicans win the Senator elections, he will hand out a five-thousand U.S. dollars check to all adult voters.

from another YouTuber…

Trump’s $5K Voter Checks: A Bribe? 👈🎙💯🔥🎙️

Because the people see how his policies had, FUCKED them up, the costs of goods is getting skyhigh due to his tariffs, and, no amount of rebate program he’d given to the SLAVES, is enough to make up for how the SLAVES are having it hard, paying for the bare necessities of their lives, (toiletries, foods, etc., etc., etc.) and now, the FUEL is rising too, because of the war he started with Iran, and, this is his, “hail Mary”, final “battle cry”, offering the voters “free money”, and the “free money” he’s handing out, still covers what?  SHIT is what this check he will be “offering” out to ALL who elect Republicans again, and this measly BRIBE he is paying you idiots, still won’t make up for the costs of housing, fuel, clothes, foods, etc., etc., etc., as he SINGLEHANDEDLY, DESTROYED the U.S. ECONOMY here!

Trump Unsanctioned the Crude Oils from Russia Due to the Oils on Short-Supply in the U.S.

See how we all, must, CAVE with the pressing needs of the people, especially with the Mid-Terms in around a month???  Sanction my ASS here, see how the TYRANT that RUNS the DST still, caved, because it is an election year, and, at this rate, the Republicans can expect their majority in both the Senate and the House to get lost, which will turn the remainder of Trump’s presidency into him getting, NEUTERED, and so, due to the pressures, the KING still CAVED!!!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The U.S. President Trump posted on TruthSocial on the 9th, that he and the Russian President, Putin had a very successful discussion, that both sides had reached an agreement that Russia will immediately supply a total of over 300,000-ton of diesel fuel to the U.S. and global market immediately, and in November, Russia is to provide another 500,000 ton, then will be increasing to up to one million ton.

how Trump had CAVED, due to the November mid-terms…video from YouTube

Trump reverses course on Russian oil sanctions – YouTube

Trump also wrote, that a little later, Russia will add in another three million tons of diesel fuel.  The U.S. Department of Treasury also issued the temporary permits, allowing the deals of Russian diesel fuels, with the dates lasting to next year April seventh.

The Ukrainian President, Zelenskyy posted on X immediately after Trump, that this is a decision of weakness that the strong partner of Ukraine had made.  In an interview with Axios, Zelenskyy sounded anger, and disappointed, because Putin just had a birthday, Zelenskyy stated, “this seemed like a birthday present to Putin, totally awful!”

The U.S. diesel fuel supplies had run short, because most of diesel fuels are used in semis, pickup trucks, many of the agricultural machineries, heavy operation vehicles too, so the shortages of diesel fuel impact the immediately operations of the businesses, not only does it add on to the costs of operations for the farmers, the trucking companies, also increases the doubts of energy-fueled inflation.

But, there are analysts who believe, that the attacks of Russian oil refinery by Ukraine cause doubts on the supply abilities, that at the start, the provisions are limited, and it’s unlikely to cause the prices of fuels to get lower.

The strategist of TD Securities, McKay said, that it’s still questionable if the supplies of Russian energy facilities can provide the promised amount by Putin to Trump; the biggest doubt is whether or not the refineries would have enough capacities.

The analyst, Cheng of Chinese Economics Affair Research pointed out, Russia is a major crude oil producing country, there’s enough of an export and production capabilities, although it’s a debatable economic body, it wouldn’t have enough of an influence on the diesel fuel market, so long as Russia is willing to export to the countries around the world, then, it can relieve the fast rising costs of diesel fuels due to the crises of the Strait of Hormuz, that it can help”, on the security of global energy market, he believes, that the sanctions can be, loosened.

Trump Lifts Sanctions on Russian Diesel—But There’s a Catch

Cheng also believes, that although the oil refineries are attacked in Russia, but compared to the degree of damages and the blockage of transportation of the energy supplies in the Middle East, it is still, operating at normal capacity, if Russia wants to export, it still, can, Russia is only suffering from the milder economical sanctions, not the physical destruction of the facilities.

So, Trump now needs Putin to help him lower the costs of energies, that he’d caused, by starting the war in Iran, and this is absolutely necessary, IF he were to, save his own ass (and his political cult’s) as the November midterms are coming up, the costs of energy is hiking up skyhigh in the DST right now, Trump would need a quick-fix to save his own skin, and, lifting the sanctions on Russian oils, is the only way, but that would put the relations of the DST with Ukraine in a, really bad place, but hey, Trump doesn’t CARE about Zelenskyy, he only cares about his collaboration with Putin, so in his mind, this is, “acceptable loss”…

Chief Justice Roberts Called “Shameful” by His Neighbors

This IS, scapegoating, and the locals on this island, targeted their anger of Trump government’s abuse against this, chief justice, and this is, how irrational people are!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The U.S. Supreme Court Overturned Roe v. Wade, Expanded the Immunity Powers of the U.S. President, Roberts Became the Scapegoat of the Citizens’ Anger

The Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, Roberts returned back to D.C. after the summer is over, and a new term began.  But, this summer is very different from the last, twenty, years.

his Maine home became a target of protesters, photo from online

In Hupper Island, Maine, he was originally John to his neighbors, who’d gone to the piers for his coffee, whose sailing skills needed improvement, and everybody knew not to talk about the courts.  And now his old friends, they’d strayed away from him, the locals would row their boats to the exterior marine territories to protest.  And so, why is it that this small island that once allowed him to live as a “neighbor” temporarily, can’t have enough space for him now?

Roberts purchased his property on the island in 2006, there’s no cars, no ferries, only twenty-plus residential homes; the fishers, the operators of kayaks, the Democrats, the Republicans sharing their summers together.  His good friend, Lipson described, “this is a community where the residents rely and lean on one another.”

Roberts was once a member of the community totally.  In the summer gatherings, he’d pretended he was in court, called out, “silence in the courts, silence, the lobsters are ready!”, and the locals had originally been proud of this, famous politician as their neighbor.  The touring boats to the nearby islands would point out Roberts’ home to the tourists to see; in the fundraisers, the yard sales, the parties, being able to have a few short words of exchange with the chief justice, sitting next to him, had even been considered as a social capital one time.

But today, as Roberts and Lipson went to the nearby islands, when a group recognized Roberts, they’d shouted out to him, “You ought to feel ashamed of yourself!”

This awkward situation started occurring after the Supreme Court overturn of RvW in 2022.  Roberts wasn’t among the majority who’d voted to overturn the RvW, but only stated that the law in Mississippi to prevent abortion after fifteen weeks be upheld; and even as he was a minority on this key issue, but, as the leader of the Supreme Court, he’d still, become the target of the local residents’ angers.

The local columnist Becca Glaser, the local columnist wrote, “the State of Maine isn’t a place you can come to relax after you’d worked hard to destroy my civil liberties and democracy.”  Glaser even called out to the locals to boo him, or to flip him the bird when they see him.

After the protests last year, a young woman walked toward Glaser, asked what the protesters wanted to, achieve, that did they consider the impact of these behaviors on his wife, his children.  Later, she’d told the residents that she is Robert’s twenty-five-year-old daughter, Josephine.  Josephine stated, that she respected her father’s left-leaning political views, that she thinks he is a wonderful, father.

Roberts stopped showing up in the local places where he had been found frequently before.  With the threats toward the government officials on the rise, his security became, tightened.  From before after the Sunday Services, he would stay around the pier to chit chat.  And now, he’d not shown his face all day.

But he had, still, attended the Independence Day Picnic of the island, as roughly sixty of the local community read aloud “The Declaration of Independence”, and sang “God Bless America”.

The neighbor, Schrobecker who was present couldn’t sit still, she had three transgendered family members, also friends who are immigrants who were arrested.  She could imagine herself, staring Justice Roberts in the eyes, and asking him, “Do you really know, how your decisions are, impacting my family and my, community?”

This is, scapegoating, because Roberts IS, the chief justice, and, because the Supreme Court Justices are primarily, conservative, which means, that they are voting NO to all the “more radical ideas” of abortion (overturned RvW???), same-sex marriage, and the like, and, even IF Roberts may not have voted conservatively on these issues, that he’d not participated in voting to overturn RvW personally, he still, got HIT with the fires of angers from his neighbors, this just showed, how IRRATIONAL people CAN get, and this is, scapegoating, and it’s unwarranted, unjustified.  Just because he is the CHIEF justice of the Supreme Court, that doesn’t mean, that he can sway the votes whichever way it is that the people expected him to sway them.  And he still came under the fires of the blames of his community, that, just showed, how IRRATIONAL the citizens can, get!

Not Enough, Bedspace…

There’s, not enough, bedspace in the hospital right now, so they started, doing, triage, those with the absolute needs of hospitalization, your stroke patients, those patients with life-threatening conditions, you know, the ones that will DIE, if they don’t get hospital, right NOW???  They’re the first “batch” to get their, rooms, beds, treatments, while the rest of the non-life-threatening conditions, your broken arms, colds, other “minor injuries”, they were all told to, wait back home.

Not enough bedspace, is it because it’s the aging population, and that it’s the flu season right now?  I mean, I can understand, that there’s the need to, prioritize, but, I thought we were all, equals, but apparently not.  And the rule of first-come-first-serve still don’t apply in this sense, I’d waited here, in this waiting room, from six in the morn here, and, all I see are people, walking around, running from place to place, doing whatever, and, nobody checks with me, on what I need!

Not enough bedspace, so you get, put on that, waiting list to get, admitted into the hospital for your, surgery, because you’re surgery is not considered emergency, and we’re still all, paying AT, the exact, same, rate of health insurance here.

But hey, that’s what you get, when you have, CHEAP and AFFORDABLE, healthcare program provided by your country’s government, oh, and did I mention, that the National Health Insurance Agency is, headed for, bankruptcy, as we live longer, and less babies are being born, and we still need the working population, to pay for the needs of the retired individuals’ healthcare plans…
