There is nothing like being poor, surrounded by those who are not part of the academic world, where you are one of the first in your family to venture there. I'm referencing his undergrad at OSU as well as Yale Law. You resent everyone for having had an easier time than you to get to that place.

All went downhill after Season 1, although I did appreciate Michael Emerson as Ben, a hardworking theater actor who finally got a role that probably paid his rent for the first time.

Sending love and support, Karen. The photo says it all. You are the one who is thriving through systemic approaches by the MSM and their calculated oppression of highly skilled journalists such as yourself. And WaPo is burning up. - Anna Bean

I adore it as well. All these properties did not factor in climate change, but I guess we have to.

Based on absolutely no proof whatsoever, I think Maxwell wrote and drew the image, and DJT signed it.

Pete Buttigieg weighs in on β€˜fairness’ of transgender kids playing girls’ sports He said he rejected blanket policies about trans participation in sports.

I fit that demographic, and I will not be supporting Buttigieg. Many of us have children and friends who are trans. Not going into the whole of it. Here's a good summary of his position: www.advocate.com/news/pete-bu...
