@jon-nyc said in Trump: “I will protect your statues. I will protect your beans. Your grandmother is on her own.” Black beans matter!

If your education is dependent on your parents instruction, blm kids are doomed. Really, doomed.

@Loki said in Are we really doing this again?: I know someone well who’s great great grandparents were taken to a church in Gaziantep, locked in and burned alive. No question from that person’s perspective of a Turkey-Russia proxy war but also the painful genocide memories. It all gets very complicated very quickly of course, imagine Russia being your benefactor. My FIL is Armenian. His dad wrote a book about the genocide, which the family somehow lived through. It's interesting stuff, especially from the American policy perspective. It's weird we just never acknowledged that it happened until W of all people. Horrifying history on their end, strange on ours.

@Jolly said in About your Adam's apple...: Regular news is supposed to be based on truth. Silly Jolly!

Nor for Taiwan either.

@Catseye3 said in "I'd like a court-appointed lawyer...": @Jolly What should have happened to her? Crucifixion would have been appropriate.

Thats so funny. We just hesrd the ice cream truck last night for the first time this summer.

@LuFins-Dad said in Dinner tonight for real: @jon-nyc nice...We had a couple small Delmonicos, but had a ton of grilled vegetables. Grilled onions are becoming a favorite.[image: 1595123516562-1b308b34-0c9d-401b-8099-695d4344b96d.jpeg] Looks great. Right now, peach season is about over down here, but grilled peaches are pretty good. Might make a good dessert to go with the theme...

I couldn’t read more than a couple of paragraphs. Imagine meeting this individual. So what do you do? I... Me thinking oh fuck how did I get stuck listening to this and then saying, “so sorry I have to run, I forgot I am late to be somewhere”

Ha

@Larry said in Shut up: That was the most poorly thought out ramble I've read today. No, it wasn't. But thanks for sharing.

I sent that to my daughter who loves G&Ts. Will have to try it.

TO make it accurate, the first map should have had "2.961 and above" and just kept it like that. Then you could have an accurate comparison.

@George-K said in The Great Awokening: If you can hear the dog-whistle, perhaps you're the dog. [image: 1595108821000-fog-dodger.jpg] awesome. He'll be cancelled by weekend's end.

Some of the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had, come from Camp A at Angola. Just don't ask what the ingredients are in prison cinnamon rolls.

@Loki said in Five Reasons Public Health Experts Have Lost Credibility: Nothing is ever more unforgivable than this: Many of the same experts who endorsed strict lockdowns in order to “stay home, stay safe” then endorsed anti-racism protests in which thousands of individuals crammed together on city streets. Not just any experts either, the former head of the CDC! Yeah, I thought that was genuinely disgusting.
