Suggestion? What?? No! In fact, I even said it would be a shame! 😜

Depending on the item you’re plugging in, it can have a plain two-prong plug, a polarized two-prong plug, and a grounded three-prong plug, and that’s just for the 110-120v “normal” stuff. Dryers and whatnot use a 240v outlet and there are at least two prong configurations that I can remember.

Manufacturers would *never* think to attach a power cord for the outlets in the local market. No, they all make their stuff with only North American plugs. It’s a shame, really, for folks in that country (Europe) to have to have adapters on hand all the time.

Holy crap… have you been reading my mind?? I’ve been shouting the same GDed thing! There’s always some lame-ass “the Bible is forbidden in school,” “the Ten Commandments should be in schools and courtrooms” post on Facebook or Nextdoor (I know…) and I ask exactly that, what they expect it to do.

It’d be terrible if the forms were filled out by the hundreds. And part of me thinks it might be even more terrible if there were bunches of Spanish and Latino surnames in there just to see who else might show up besides the public.

This is not a protest *yet*.

Well it’s not like we couldn’t see ‘em before. But yeah, I guess for a few, if there had been any remaining doubt it’s now gone.

He’s not even the mayor yet. This was just the primary and they’re already losing their shit. Sure, he probably WILL be the mayor, unless mass stupidity infects all of NYC, but still.

Socialism is when the mayor.

Socialism is when government.

Wait. Is “woke” a synonym for socialism then?

That’s the joke.

I honestly don't understand how anyone could want to do anything other than raise the bottom. Ensure that everyone has healthcare, food, housing and education. Anything else is just inhuman IMO.

The party of family values and pro-life, just not your family or your life. Your oppression is their profession. Pathologically sociopathic.

And there’s nothing today’s Evilgelicals hate more than the teachings of Jesus.

Sounds like God picked the shittiest editors.

“Sorry, Puddin’, you’re not from the South. You would never understand how to make Mammaw’s biscuits, macaroni and tomatoes, and fried okra.” 🤣🙄

They’d still go on about how they’re “never sick,” but call me a libcuck or some other clever name first.

I get side-eye from *HCWs* sometimes! Not at the transplant clinic, of course, where they all mask when around one of us, but it should not be surprising, even in North Carolina, to see someone masking. It’s the stuff like you’ve unfortunately run into that keeps me from doing those things. 😢

❤️❤️❤️ High risk here, too (heart transplant and ZERO WBCs right now). Glad some folks still “get it.”

Oh, my.

I just watch a lot of serial killer docs. They’re always a Wayne. Without fail.

Oh I am VERY much in favor of the “we pnch Nzis Left.” Ain’t got time to be the Tolerant Left.

“Oh, so much for the Tolerant Left!”

Wait… were we supposed to have seen something else?

I am convinced that my father’s exposure to Agent Orange in Viet Nam is the reason I ended up with several chronic illnesses including one that ended up requiring a heart transplant (four months ago today!). It seems they are in no hurry to recognize children of male vets as victims of AO.
