Spring 2026 IYKYK

 

America 2026

Democrats have Chuck Schumer.

America has Elon Musk.

It’s a culture issue.

And culture doesn’t just appear out of thin air, it’s shaped, reinforced and sustained over decades.

What you’re seeing didn’t start yesterday.

It traces back to policies and incentives that began shifting in the late 50s and 60s, when Democrats stepped in and started replacing structure that used to exist in the home and community.

When you remove accountability…
When you reward dependency…
When you weaken family structure…

You don’t get stability.

You get exactly what we’re seeing now.

And let’s be honest…

The people who bought into the idea that government dependency was the answer are the ones who got hurt the most.

Because once the system replaces responsibility, Democrats knew this, they knew that they could hire gatekeepers that are black that will keep blacks on the plantation. They knew if they created legacy welfare that people would be proud of taking money from the white man, but they’re not taking money from the white man. They’re taking money from Americans.

They have chosen to be barnacles and parasites on our system. We will live for free they say. Think about it if you were a democrat and you could give someone $1200 a month to sit on their porch in the summer, and have more Democrats.

Procreate more Democrats and they would be enslaved to you for the next 200 years. It doesn’t build strong individuals.

It produces chaos, confusion, and generational damage.

That’s outcomes.

From Government policy and until people are willing to say that plainly, nothing changes.

Mule deer hunting in Nevada's Unit Group 221-223 (often referred to as a combined management unit group) is a popular draw for quality hunts in the eastern part of the state. This area is known for its rugged, largely public lands with good populations of mule deer, along with opportunities for elk and antelope in the same regions.

Location and Access

Units 221, 222, and 223 cover portions of White Pine, Lincoln, and Nye Counties in east-central Nevada. Key features include:

• Major ranges: Schell Creek Range, Egan Range (including South Egan Range Wilderness), Mount Grafton Wilderness, Far South Egans Wilderness, Fairview Range, West Range, Ely Springs Range, and North Pahroc Range.
• Valleys and areas: Sagebrush valleys, mahogany canyons, Mule Shoe Valley, Cave Valley, and others.
• Access: Primarily public lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Eastern and southern parts are reachable via U.S. Highway 93 (from Ely south to areas like Crystal Springs). Western access via State Route 318. Numerous dirt and gravel roads (maintained and unmaintained) provide vehicle access, but designated wilderness areas prohibit mechanized transport (no wheeled game carriers or mountain bikes—pack out on foot or with animals).
• Much of the land is open to public hunting, but hunters should check for any private inholdings or restrictions.

Habitat and Deer Behavior

The unit group features high-elevation summer range in the northern portions (Schell Creek and Egan Ranges) with basins and reliable water sources. Vegetation includes sagebrush, pinyon-juniper woodlands, mahogany, and thicker cover at lower elevations.

Deer movement is heavily influenced by weather and elevation:

• Summer/early fall: Deer at higher elevations.
• Migration: Triggered by cooler temperatures, snowfall, or dropping conditions—deer move downslope and southward.
• The area experiences monsoonal patterns (late July–mid-August precipitation can green up vegetation and shift distributions) and prolonged drought effects in some years. Late fall/winter brings most precipitation (rain/snow).

Hunting Seasons in October

Nevada's mule deer seasons vary by weapon type, and Unit 221-223 often has split or specific dates. October typically covers the transition from muzzleloader to rifle seasons, with deer behavior shifting.

From recent NDOW data and patterns (seasons can change annually—always verify current regs via ndow.org):

• Archery: Typically August 10–September 9 (pre-October, higher elevations).
• Muzzleloader: Often September 10–October 4 (or similar; deer still higher up).
• Any Legal Weapon (rifle): October often includes early to mid/late segments. Examples from recent years show splits like early October 5–20/31 and late October 21–November 5, or full October periods (e.g., October 5–31 or October 21–November 5 in some cycles). Mid-to-late October rifle hunts are common.
• October hunts generally align with the rut approaching (November peak in many Nevada units), post-velvet bucks, and potential migration.

October-specific notes (from NDOW biologist recommendations):

• Early October: If warm, focus upper elevations of Schell and Egan Ranges. Bucks may bed in thick vegetation after shedding velvet—glass early/late from high points.
• Mid-to-late October: Cooler weather/snow pushes deer lower and southward. Target benches on southern Schell Range, Mule Shoe Valley, lower Fairview Range, West Range, Ely Springs, and North Pahroc Range. Deer use thick pinyon-juniper—harder to spot, requires patience and glassing.
• Deer can be transitional in early October (migrating but not yet grouped), so scout summer range first, then move south if needed.
• Strategy: Glass from vantage points at dawn/dusk. Prepare for hikes and long pack-outs in wilderness/high country.

This is considered a quality unit—often described as one of Nevada's better mule deer areas with good buck potential (though draw odds and harvest vary yearly). It's draw-only for non-residents (and often competitive for residents), with limited tags.

For the most accurate/current details (including exact 2026 season dates, quotas, draw odds, and any updates), check the Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) website: ndow.org. They publish the Big Game Seasons & Applications booklet annually, plus hunt information sheets for Unit 221-223 (e.g., the mule deer PDF with biologist notes). Forum discussions (e.g., Monster Muleys, Rokslide) often share hunter experiences from past October hunts in this unit, noting good bucks but requiring effort due to terrain and movement.

If you're planning a hunt, scout ahead—October weather can vary widely, affecting migration timing. Good luck!

CONGRESSIONAL FATIGUE

Congress won’t police its own members.

Congress won’t expose their own slush fund payouts for sexual misconduct claims.

Congress won’t hold judges accountable for their political activism on the bench.

Congress won’t allow Trump to have recess appointments.

Congress won’t prohibit their own insider trading.

Congress won’t pass term limits.

Congress won’t put American interests ahead of their own.

Retirement Wake Up

Retirement I am finding is a million different things to a million different people.

The majority of Americans seem to be accepting of their physical decline and don't want to do anything to change.  They want to accept their decline.  They decide to stop working at their health.

Many, pop a few vitamins, chew a few pills, sit all day, watch the commercials and think about the old days.

They decide they don't want better.   They don't want change.  They don't want to work at the size of their gut or the size of their ass. They think sweating is being outside on a hot day in July.

Frankly, they feel like hell.  It's not their belly.  It's not the waist.  It's not the flab.   It's not the lethargy.

For sure it's not the genetics.

It's their standards.  It's what they want.

It's what they want to live with daily.

It's what they want to accept.

Do this if you want a better retirement.

Figure out what you want to look like, feel like, and act like in your retirement, preferably before you retire.   

And then, just like Nike, just do it. 

Stop the excuses, toss out the pills, eat healthy food, exercise, walk, lift some weights, and see what might happen in a few months.

Those needless doctor visits, where they want you to come back soon for more doctor visits, followed by more medicine, to get you to go to this specialist, followed by another round of that medicine, with a follow-up in another few weeks, and on and on and on it goes.

The circle jerk of American health-care.

Is that what you wanted for your retirement?

After seventeen incredible years, my latest chapter at Tesla has come to a close. Words won’t do justice to how fulfilling the experience has been, but I’ll try anyway: Tesla barely survived Christmas 2008. I started a few days later in our Finance team, under an ongoing “Tesla Deathwatch”. I slept under my desk in San Carlos, CA at least once, and I wasn’t the only one. There are many companies with hard-working and talented employees, but few have the level of commitment and collaboration of the Tesla team. In retrospect, this should have been an obvious predictor of the successes that would follow. This is as true today as it was in 2009.

To my former Finance team: You are heroes within a company full of heroics, given the full-body workout that is your daily job. Take an Accounting or Finance textbook off the shelf and flip to a random page - Tesla is undoubtedly manifesting the underlying concept in the real world. From selling hardware and software under various business models, managing assets of all types (including digital ones), to pursuing continuous investment into an ambitious future throughout the world, you make the impossible look easy. To my colleagues across the rest of the company - I am grateful for the time that you have spent to educate me, including during my stints outside of the Finance team. You have started with one of Tesla’s strongest advantages - the strongest talent across engineering, manufacturing/operations, and customer-facing functions - and have turned it into an unstoppable force via your “one team” attitude. For me, late-night sessions on topics ranging from the physics of a brake rotor to the training of a neural network proved more valuable than any classroom experience that came before, and made the company stronger as a result. Going to work is not supposed to be this much fun.


@elonmusk

A heartfelt thanks for your endless love of humanity, and for demonstrating the power of thinking from first principles at all times, about all things. When Abundance is achieved and money ceases to have meaning, these lessons will be the most valuable commodity in our economy. To the outside world, who may not have experienced the above first-hand: Remember that Tesla’s mission is so ambitious and complex that any narrative about the company is naturally an oversimplification. Seek the truth about the company at all times. And support it in any way that you can! There are few higher callings/better uses of your time.

Are You A Birdwatcher!

A recent research demonstrates that birdwatching can literally rewire the human brain through neuroplasticity, producing measurable structural and functional changes that enhance perception, attention, and cognitive performance—potentially even helping to buffer against age-related decline. 

While birdwatching has long been celebrated for its calming, restorative qualities, emerging neuroscientific findings reveal it delivers far deeper benefits. A 2026 study used diffusion-weighted and functional MRI to compare the brains of 29 expert birdwatchers (ages 24–75) with 29 matched novices (ages 22–79). Experts showed greater tissue density—indicating more compact, efficient neural organization—in regions tied to attention, perception, working memory, spatial awareness, and object recognition.

  These structural adaptations enabled experts to identify birds, including unfamiliar or non-local species, with significantly higher speed and accuracy. During identification tasks, experts displayed increased activity in key areas such as the bilateral prefrontal cortex, bilateral intraparietal sulcus, and right occipitotemporal cortex—regions critical for visuospatial attention, object categorization, and memory. This mirrors brain remodeling observed in other expertise domains, like multilingualism or professional musicianship, where prolonged practice fine-tunes visual and auditory processing. By repeatedly attending to subtle cues in plumage, songs, flight patterns, and behavior, birdwatchers drive cortical reorganization. Notably, these expertise-linked changes persisted across the adult lifespan, with older experts exhibiting brain features in relevant regions more akin to those of younger individuals—suggesting the development of cognitive reserve that may protect against aging effects.
