@freemo @realcaseyrollins @alecui @olmitch Not for a few more months....
@olmitch @alecui @freemo @realcaseyrollins 1946.... Most of us would think of that as pre-history. After that quote, Byrd said being in the KKK was the biggest mistake he made in his life." He said that also in pr-histoy, about 1950.
@realcaseyrollins @alecui @freemo @olmitch, No. Dead for 15 years.
@olmitch @alecui @freemo @realcaseyrollins Byrd left the KKK in about 1945, at age 20? And I highly doubt Biden is hanging out with Byrd anymore.
@JohnShirley2023 @sbdivya , I am 60 now, and do not regret a single virtue I took a principled stance on, from my earliest days to now. Even those stances where I have changed position.
@sbdivya Do you have to attend to win?
@freemo I have always considered Joseph Jenkins Roberts to be the 1st black American president... although with a small caveat.
@Hey_Beth , thanks, this reminded me I am out of duct tape.
@Talia_christine , and fun. It's a business called "Panting with a Twist" in Lexington KY. this was a couples night, although many just did single panels. They walk you through the process step by step until you end up with that. And naturally, you can modify what you wish, and they give you help ideas. I had to add a Tardis... Everyone else had a moon there.
@Talia_christine @bkm , I'm busted. Now you know I don't obsessively read all of your posts. :)
@bmerer @JeriLRyan , she is amazing. I didn't like her at first, because she was basically the hot woman in spandex, and those characters annoy me. Then she did a couple episodes when she just shined: "Body and Soul" where she becomes the Doctor, and my favorite, "The Voyager Conspiracy" where she delivers these long speeches laying out conspiracy theories with flawless delivery. Now in "Picard" she is just incredible.
@bkm , they should be putting up their halloween decorations.
Haven't been on the bird app in so log, I actually had to type "twitt" before google knew were I wanted to go. Before that I got suggestions for painting with a twist, tardis exploding, letter from twittler's lawyer, twitch, and a few others. OK. But, first thread is a guy running for office from a state who had their gun laws written by the NRA and signed into law by a republican, saying he wants to protect the 2nd amendment by adding the 28th... No text of the 28th, just a video I was uninterested in watching, and one of the top posts this bit of cold hard fact:

@Free_Press , I Googled up which way the winds blow in Ukraine, and if this map is true, Russia would be driving themselves out of Crimea:
@DrPsyBuffy , I have only been here since last October, when the 1st wave left the bird app. Yes, there are bad actors here. I have found the occasional white supremist group with their own servers supporting that. What I find far less of is people demanding that they know how hateful you are, and jumping to insults. It is really strange these days to see that happen. A couple weeks ago it did happen. I mentioned in a random thread why I would not / did not vote for Hillary and was verbally assaulted. It was just like the old Twitter days. But what is daily there is monthly here.
BS in Physics. Will not tolerate hate. I am active here and on Post.
