“I enjoy talking to you. Your mind appeals to me. It resembles my own mind except that you happen to be insane.” - George Orwell 1984 Psalm 109 is my heartfelt prayer for all in the current Administration.

That ANY of those are not ZERO is a serious problem that desperately need addressing.

When I finally get pushed to the stabbing part, I rather appreciate the ragged cuts that come from a dull knife. Oh. Wait. Are you talking about preparing food and such? Then, yes, absolutely, a sharp knife is better. No question.

My father had a major stroke that left him severely mentally impaired. He would concoct all manner of intricate, fascinating scenarios, all of which were pure delusion. We would engage him with "wow!"s and "that's amazing!"s, but we never felt like we had to live those delusions.

Was in a community space to hear a friend play guitar & they had cappuccinos on offer, so I bought one. It was a Folgers brewed in a Mr Coffee with a squirt of ReadyWhip on top. I'm told he made a shamrock in the whipped cream with a toothpick, but I was laughing so hard I couldn't see straight.

Unless those people ARE preparing & distributing vegan meals for unhoused folks, they really do not have any relevant contribution to the discussion.

When I 1st read it to my eldest daughter, We read the page where Grover says, "If you do not turn any pages, we will never get to the end of this book. And that is good, because there is a MONSTER at the end of this book. So please don't turn the page." She said, "OK" & and firmly closed the book.

If you have a state safety inspection, they collect mileage data. Heck, Jiffy Lube has that info. Paying for roads by mile driven and vehicle weight makes perfect sense. You know who WON’T like it? Amazon, who drives millions of miles in heavy electric trucks.

I eat M&Ms alphabetically by color. There used to be a light brown M&M instead of a blue one. I wanted to eat those last so I decided light brown is called “xyzz” so I could legitimately eat them after the yellows. For years I refused to eat blue because they displaced my special zyzz ones.

Imagine a fruit punch made with 100% fresh, organic fruit. Now imagine a single turd floating around in it. Even if you didn't ladle the turd into your glass, would you drink the punch?

Maybe the tech bros have “perfected” a method to upload consciousness. Maybe DJT, Mitch & the other ancients are preparing to get uploaded. Maybe Bannon is coming out against it all because they excluded him. Maybe this is behind the whole push for data centers and for AI. 🤷

I expect “they” are well aware of this, which is why you can expect them to apply the same ruthlessness and brazenness to nullify the elections. I fear the coming conflict is well at hand. The rough stuff is less than 2 mos away…

she conceded without checking for fraud. She didn’t dispute the initial tallies. Nobody else was in the position to demand recounts and closer scrutiny to see if the man who constantly cries “stollen election” was, yet again, projecting on others what he, himself, was doing.

Back when we read our kids the Harry Potter series, we called the smart little girl he & Ron hung around with “Herm-ee-own”. Wasn’t until we listened to Jim Dale reading them that we realized how it was meant to be said.

Why would you want to slice up a perfectly good mandolin? Chopping up a banjo or, maybe, dicing an accordion makes perfect sense, but what did that mandolin ever do to you?

When there is a reconning, the contractors who did this illegal work (as well as all the many others on all the many other illegal projects) need to be held criminally liable and their directors and managers need to go to prison.
