You know you’re getting old when a physically overwhelming week makes you reconsider driving for 2 hours for another event you were looking forward to. Wish me luck.

NPR has lost the plot. Shame on you, Ari.

Future generations will watch these clips like we watch nazi Germany footage - with disgust and amazement that human beings did this to one another.

So what's the talk about this in farm circles? Harvest was quick and early this year because of drought. Does not bode well for next season unless we get a snowy winter, which seems unlikely with the present trend.

Holy shit! In Chicago last night, thousands of residents took to the street to protest fascist authoritarian Trump, the National Guard, and Nazi ICE Gestapo's attempted coup of their city. πŸ™ŒπŸ’ͺπŸ‘βœŠοΈπŸ‘‡

It is when others negate your experiences. Like you are doing to this person. And children are not "sexual." That is pedo talk. Stop it.

Stephie could have just told him "Fuck off, you're wrong and you're lying." Quicker and to the point.

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

Every govn shutdown in my life time without exception has been because democrats want people to have access to things and republicans don’t. Thats it. Every time. Republicans would rather everyone die than get anything. I do not understand how anyone ever votes for them without being stupid/evil.

I hope to see Jane Goodall’s name among the men who’ve taught us kindness. She deserves the space beside Mr Rogers and Bob Ross. I hope she’s walking among the chimpanzees again.

Pritzker has more balls than the entire top brass of our military who should have staged a coup at Hegshit's mandatory gathering.

ICE officers would have given Jesus vinegar to drink and thorns to wear. They would have spat on him and jeered. They would have hammered in the nails.

I couldn’t believe that no one stood up during his UN speech and yelled β€œFuck you,” at him.

Anyone who watched and liked Broadchurch a few years back (was it really 10+ years ago?) might check out Untamed on Netflix. Similar pace, murder mystery with a troubled lead investigator and a plucky young helper. One of those you can’t tell where it’s going until it gets there.

KB Toys is another. I worked for them for nearly 20 years. After 2001 they got into financial trouble and along comes private equity company Bain Capital. Rolling Stone did a great article on them, featuring that Mormon guy who ran for President because he was involved with Bain Capital.

OTC medications need to do better listing side effects on labels. Took Zyrtec for 1st time today and I feel like a jitterbug. It's like drinking 2 Red Bulls, but with anxiety on top of that. So I read 2 of the side effects can be ANXIETY and NERVOUSNESS. That might be important for people to know. πŸ€”

So who else who didn’t cancel their Hulu/Disney+ account just got an email informing them the price is going up $4 a month? Boycotts work.

Hurray! Transgender operations for everybody! But that’s what allowed you to become president. Why wouldn’t you want that? For everybody!

We also need to understand that Tr*mp was installed by outside influencers. He did not earn the support of the majority of Americans. Yes, I believe some states' election processes were compromised. Full stop.

How can those officials just SIT THERE? The sooner just one of them stands up and yells, "Fuck you!" and walks out, the better off we'll all be. I even bet half the room would follow them.

The sooner someone stands up and yells a hearty "Fuck you!" the better off the world will be. Sincerely, how can those people just SIT THERE??!!

JFC, who let that man at the table? The quicker the EU and the UK ban him from assemblies like this, the better off they'll all be. Allowing him to speak at least gives evidence to how far gone to authoritarianism he is. History will show....

Local Democratic Facebook page posted an article then said we were done with postings about a certain conservative’s death. And issued a warning to the β€œcreepers.” Everyone should follow suit. Bullies want you to keep talking about them. Stop taking the bait.
