Rational, LBJ/FDR liberal, nontheistic humanist (though I do go to church). Born in the late 50s as was my house.

"DEVOUR FECULENCE," Chuck.
Do not negotiate with liars and terrorists and facists. Do not obey in advance. Do not appease.
DEVOUR FECULENCE
"I’ve got two words for Chuck Schumer and the words are from Severance and they are devour feculence. That’s it. That’s what I want them to do. The Dems in the leadership positions are not up for the fight. We know this now; it’s clear." GREG OLEAR

"As apex predators, they reveal ecosystem health by accumulating pathogens from prey, providing insights into unseen disease transmission patterns."
