Glad to hear things are looking better, MCS! Did a bunch of people move there from metro Boston? Sounds like about half of the drivers around here.

And isn't Stephen Miller descended from grandparents who escaped the Holocaust?

And her protectors were breaking the law.

Right on cue....

Yup, evidently they forced that poor kid to knock on the door in an attempt to get his mother out evidently. That poor kid.

The Gold Plated Idol's disciples will come up with some way to justify this, I'm sure. Or a way to blame the protesters.

A thought that chills me to the bone-Nazis were told that they couldn't spare the children or they'd grow up and continue the line of the subhumans. ETA: I've seen a poster on Bluesky who states that they're doing things like this in order to incite a riot, so that they can really go to town on the protesters/observers.

True. I recently saw a meme that said that people are not going to be surprised not by the greed of the billionaires, but by the support of the poor. Or something like that.

Of course, when he says 'us' he really means him. I doubt he has ever thought about anybody but himself.

Ever since 1919, Halifax has provided Boston with its Christmas tree as a thank you for their aid that year. And Canadian tourists are definitely a big part of New England's summer economy. I think it would be hard to find a better neighbor than Canada.

A complaint I often hear is from people who clear their sidewalks and/or driveways, only to have the snowplow come by and block them with dirty, heavy snow later.

While I don't know how common this is, I do know a few people who are all for cutting public assistance-even though they are on public assistance themselves. They think it's because they prayed for it, so that makes them special cases.

Sounds like one of my cousins. From the sounds of it, extreme news 'sources' like Newsmax and InfoWars, especially when not mixed up with more moderate sources, have been a major influence. Another cousin has determined that all of his hard times were caused by Biden, as well is 'illegals.' Both of them think that Biden is the one who stole billions, and either seem oblivious to the stealing in the current regime, or feel like it's justified. I. don't. understand.

It's going to take years for the divide to close-if it ever does. There are people in my own family who I think I'll never be able to trust or respect again.

Lately I've been wishing that George Carlin was still alive.
