@jbf1755 Oh, I don't know. I think it showed Joe Biden could handle the heckling. If they thought it hurt him, they were very wrong. If anything he got feisty and energized. They just looked bad and he came out shining.

PSA: Never store tape players with a tape loaded in them. VCR, Reel, Cassette, Data Storage.

The oxide sloughing from the media is bad enough on its own, but it never ends well for the pinch rollers, then everyone suffers.

YOU GUYS the best way to deal with your crazy conspiracy theorist acquaintances is to just be more crazy, like

“Did you know the earth is flat”
YOU: did u know that the earth is shaped like a giant burrito

“Did you know they faked the moon landing”
YOU: did u know they faked hawaii

“Did you know sandy hook was a false flag”
YOU: did u know your mom is a false flag

I haven't read all the books I've bought, but when a heavy bookcase is needed to barricade a door, I won't be the wasteful paranoid idiot then.

My kid is in a club at school, and they meet 4x a week for 4 hours. So all the parents chip in and stock a "snack cabinet" (granola bars, juice boxes, etc.) because teenagers are hungry goblins.
I went to fill the cabinet and noticed a padlock on it, apparently someone had been "stealing."
I admit, this triggered me.
I spoke to the coach and told him that perhaps he should talk to the kids and find out if one of them is food insecure instead of locking up some two dollar box of granola bars.
The look on his face, I could tell it kinda clicked, he didn't even think of that, just assumed it was some punk kid breaking rules.
People who grow up with wealth don't even realize that it changes the way they think. Luckily, he's a cool guy, and he was horrified that one of 'his kids' might be hungry at home. Sometimes it just takes one comment to open up someone's eyes to their privilege.

As I tell my own children: If you see someone stealing food, no you didn't.

Think of it as “inspiring erections”, rather than “being slutty”.

You know, if the press actually did investigative journalism like they used to, we wouldn’t have to continue finding things out after the fact. That these politicians are lying to the extreme to be elected.

More journalism.

Less nonsense for clicks
