Exactly. Trump's impeachment is only relevant to those who live and work in Washington D.C., and to those whose egos are tied up with his ego. Otherwise... his passing (in whatever manner) is as significant to daily life as a star going nova.

The Hard Questions About Young People and Gender Transitions

Substitute cat, and it's what I see about every day.

The first thing I drove was a tractor while the men and older boys loaded hay. That made me use the clutch to start and stop but no shifting per se.
First on-road vehicle I drove was a '66 VW bus. No such thing as automatic transmission on those.
First automatic I ever owned wasn't until the early '90's.
I'm sorry I missed that poll. I generally read 100% of the local timeline, but somehow missed that one.

@freemo I'd say the people with the strongest anti-gun opinions are the ones with the least knowledge.
Generally people with strong pro-gun opinions have them because they are knowledgeable about firearms.
Many schools in the past went even further than "gun safety" and had competitive shooting teams.
My uncle used to take his rifle to school and stash it in his locker so he could go hunting after school without going home first. A lot of kids did.
The less responsibility expected from kids, the less responsibility they're able to handle.
@freemo Third-party is my default. Usually Libertarian, but I've been known to vote for a Populist candidate. Also been known to just stay home on election day. Reagan was the last Demopublican I voted for.
@freemo
> Biden is literally my last choice for president.
I agree... with the caveat that Trump is tied for last choice.
@freemo Maybe written tongue in cheek? That's the way I take it (absent any context).
@freemo Guess I need to start editing the the headlines instead of just pasting them.

@freemo Ok, so free university doesn't include universal university (as with high school). I'm relieved you weren't implying what I was inferring.
Is Grade Inflation in High School Real?
@freemo So, anyone who wants to attend university can go, even those with IQ's of 50? What are t he odds of getting ROI for such students?
