Fiftyish Anybody 🇺🇦

Bonnie Thurston was my New Testament professor in seminary. Awesome person, compassionate and incredibly smart. Her poems rock.

I don't really do current music, so can't help much there.

Peter, Paul and Mary are the patron gods of the genre. Go beyond Puff the Magic Dragon, and you'll find the soundtrack to the revolution. Nice harmonies, too.

And apparently they're claiming the entire Western hemisphere as US territory now. But does that make all Latinos US citizens?

I guess he never read Yertle The Turtle.

Epic.

I have my doubts as to whether SNAP will be restarted at all. Hopefully I'm just being paranoid. But.

So you'll throw everyone on Pennie under the bus? Last I checked, they're your constituents too.

This will push a lot of women out of the workforce, which is another part of their plan.

Destroying the White House to build a golden ballroom while people are going hungry gives strong Marie Antoinette vibes and it didn't work out well for her.

It is.

Never heard Bad Bunny but I think it's about time I start.

Local CBS station ran a piece this morning discouraging people from liking or commenting on any post that's critical of Kirk.

Are DVDs still a thing? Hardcopy isn't a bad idea in these times, if you can get it.

To use a Terran phrase, that sucks so hard.

Inflammatory war rhetoric + a ridiculous number of guns = political violence. This was another shot fired in the Slow Civil War. I fear it won't be the last.

You can retire there if you have enough money. Difficult otherwise from what I read, although tourist visas are good for up to 6 months. But if this revolution follows the playbook, foreigners could be at risk. When this much pent-up rage boils over, it goes in a lot of directions.

All you need is a red pill in one hand and a blue pill in the other.

I did walk in. Pharmacist said he couldn't give me one without a prescription until their protocol doctors catch up with the state. Southwestern PA.

CVS in PA is still requiring prescriptions until their overseers catch up with new state policy. No idea when that will be.

Too many workers don't realize that the client's time is valuable too.

They love him because he hates all the same people they hate and they get off on watching him hurt those people.

I think I heard this at a college poetry reading back in the late 80s.

And when the pages start to fall out, you can use them as bookmarks.

Nice to see someone giving RFK the middle finger.

Watched it in 1972. Started first grade in 1974. Can confirm.

"BuzzBallz Biggie" would be an epic rap name.

We've become a cautionary tale. I hope it's heeded.

Spend your time and energy on doing something about the concentration camps.

I think we've taken more than a couple of steps back. More like pushed off the cliff edge into a sea of pirhana-infested lava. If we survive at all, it will be a long, long time until we'll be OK.
