    @LuFins-Dad said in Eviction Due to Political Posting on Social Media: Eviction Due to Political Posting on Social Media "Wages, a WHITE woman with "bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, complex post-traumatic stress disorder, agoraphobia..." Why mention that at all? Wages received $794 in monthly social security disability benefits, $700 in weekly unemployment relief and used a "Section 8" federal housing voucher which covers anywhere from 50 to 65 percent of the rent. $1500 a month plus at least half your rent paid? Nice gig.

    Which is why it's a good idea to own a rifle. Level III body armor does not defeat 5.56 or larger, even with a chicken plate.

    @George-K said in My Useless Trivia Beats George's Useless Trivia, Neener: I've known about Baba Yaga since I was, oh, about 5 years old. My grandmother (I called her "Baba") told me tales about Baba Yaga. She was 100% Russian, and grew up in Czarist Russia, fleeing after the revolution of 1917. Okay that's just cool. My grandparents told me about Krampus. Probably because I was kind of an asshole, I dunno.

    @Klaus said in Don’t try this at home: I had a similar (but much less dramatic) accident with my bike recently. Do tell! I had a taxi turn right into my crosswalk one night in Rockville. I kicked his right rear tail light out and he didn't even stop.

    Newsweek: Tulsi Gabbard, the Only Non-White Dem Candidate With Primary Delegates, Confirms She Was Not Invited to DNC Gabbard is also the only non-white candidate of the group. The other six candidates who won delegates—Democratic nominee Joe Biden, Senator Bernie Sanders, Senator Elizabeth Warren, former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigeg and Senator Amy Klobuchar—all spoke over the course of the convention. The 39-year-old Hawaii congresswoman, whose father is of Samoan ancestry, won more delegates than vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris, who made history as the first African American and the first Asian American running mate on a major party ticket. The Democratic Party was criticized last week, after releasing the full convention schedule, when constituents noticed Andrew Yang and Julian Castro were also left off the lineup. Yang ended up speaking at the virtual convention Thursday after he tweeted his disappointment that the party had not asked him to participate. Democratic lawmakers from California expressed their support for Yang's presence at the DNC. Why do Democrats hate women of color (other than the one they picked, totally not because of her two X chromosomes and her color)?

    I was just watching his speech to some business group. Good speech and he laid out a pretty fair list of his administration’s accomplishments. If he can stick to the record and stay out of the mud he will do well.
