Going somewhere really expensive for dinner...

[True Dough]

Thanks, Trump!

11. Even if you don't drive, gas prices affect everything you buy...

that is brought to the store in a vehicle, which is pretty much everything.

[paleotn]

16. In the last 2 weeks, gas as is higher everywhere for the same reason.

There are no self sustaining bubbles anywhere on earth period, EOM.

[milestogo]

2. I filled the tank last weekend and paid $3.19/gallon

A full tank lasts me a long time. But I expect that the prices will be going up soon. Its going up everywhere.

10. Remember the Biden "I did that" stickers

That MAGAs put on the pumps a few years back? We need those with Trump’s ugly mug on them.

Dow 45,000, baby!!!

23. Being done!....

Burned through my first 50 quickly…

3. Yeah but Leo can afford it lol

I want to be clear about this, I admire Leonardo. It's not a crush and it would be neat to meet him and have a conversation with him.


I keep tabs on his donations to Democratic campaigns and PAC's. He contributes colossal donations for the Democratic Party, funds that quite a few of us couldn't give.


He lost his home in the L.A fires. Then he donated some serious funds to the L.A wild fire relief as well.


I didn't want to high-jack your thread, True. I guess I'd rather talk about Leo instead of TSF.

[milestogo]

4. Who is Leonardo?

DiCaprio? Da Vinci?

[Niagara]

5. Leonardo DiCaprio. The man in True Dough's meme.

[milestogo]

6. Got it.

[Niagara]

9. I should have been more specific when I mentioned Leo and added his surname

I'm still in a morning wake up fog. I also can't get the coffee grinder to work so I'm running on zero fuel here.

[milestogo]

22. My brain wouldn't let me see Leo at a gas station or with a woman older than 18.

[Niagara]

26. I hope this helps your brain to see what's happening here, miles

Do you ever wonder where this particular talking point originates from? Hint: From the same group that claimed that Hillary Clinton had a child sex ring operation in a basement of a pizza joint and that immigrants are eating the cats and dogs.


I know that the print from the Federal Election Commission that I took a screenshot of is impossible to read. I've attempted to make it larger but the image hosting site crams the print so I apologize for that, it's beyond my control.





All donations to the Democratic Party on this screenshot are from Leonardo DiCaprio and all dated on 10-18-24. If the small print isn't too terrible to read, check out the $90,000.00 donation amount for the Harris Victory Fund PAC.


Leo's been donating funds to our party for years. His dating preferences shouldn't matter unless it's illegal and or abusive, then it should be tar and feather time for sure.

[True Dough]

7. I don't know why the person who made the meme chose to put DiCaprio in it

Maybe it was done without a lot of thought because he's in a lot of memes. This one makes the rounds a lot:




But, you're right, because it is Leo, he can afford the dinner, no matter the price. And we would have to presume that his dinner date is 25 years old or younger.

[Niagara]

13. Oh yes, the infamous Once Upon A Time in Hollywood meme

As far as I know all his relationships are of consenting age, he's never had to pay anyone for their "silence" and he's never been accused of sexual assault or sexual abuse.


I believe that the nit picking of his 25 age bracket preferences is retaliation for his Democratic causes, but who really knows. We all have preferences and we all have a "type".

[True Dough]

15. I wasn't implying that he takes advantage of minors

Just that he's well-known for dating much younger ladies. But that's true of many Hollywood men, and men outside of Hollywood, for that matter.

[Niagara]

21. I know that you weren't implying that at all, True

Whenever anyone brings up his age preferences, this is always my reply regarding this.



It's true for many Hollywood couples.



Even Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor have quite a bit of an age gap. They make it work!

[paleotn]

20. More connection if it's someone you've seen and know who they are.

Old marketing trick. It works better if you turn off your higher brain functions, i.e., don't ask questions, just go with it.

I can't seem to find that off switch anywhere so I'm hard to market to. You're probably the same as me.

[chouchou]

8. Here in Sarasota, I paid 4.29 a gallon The Clerk said it will be more in 2-3 days.

Our car has to use High-Test.

[rubbersole]

14. My son's Volvo has to use high-test.

That's gotten to be some serious cash. Probably $1,500 a year. Nice car though.

[multigraincracker]

12. I'm lucky. Really don't have to go anywhere.

If gas goes up 50% I can cut out 50% of my driving.
Retired.

[niyad]

24. But that you can cut out 50% of your driving really is not the point, is it?

Once again, our lives are impacted by completely unnecessary, evil forces, and WE are the ones to suffer the consequences. Just like being told by billionaires how to subsist in meager food allowances and ratcheting grocery prices.

[multigraincracker]

25. I understand that.

I just make it my hobby to save money.
I’ve reached one goal, I manage to pay no interest only to get interest. Just bought a new Honda-c-rv and paid cash for it. In 1982 I made my last car payment and then kept that car and put away those payments for the next one. Then I went on and did the same with my house. In my third house I’ve paid cash for.
Mostly able to do this because I never had children. Also. When I die my carbon footprint ends.

17. Nicely played

😀

18. Getting gas while getting gas.
