I sift through what’s excreted and separate the stimulating from the crap. Also: it’s a metaphor. Relax.

They’ll cheer for whomever Murdoch tells them to root for.

AnyTHING? I’m confident I wouldn’t like her, but she is not a thing. She is a human woman. Do better.

They don’t want him. I spent two weeks there earlier this year. Usually, tour guides are very careful to avoid any topic that can be considered political. Not the South Africans. Multiple people essentially told us that he’s our problem now, and, no, we can’t send him back.

Or, maybe beseech he paid them to, as a stunt, to further his narrative. If it were really an organized effort by his detractors, would it be perpetual?

Here I am, hoping that the reason they are numbered is that there’s some sort of embedded code with a call to action for the Alts. i.e. “If a titmouse & a sapsucker are both multiples of three, do x.” “If a cardinal & sparrows are prime numbers, do y.” But I’m totally gonna just enjoy the birdies.

True. Conservatives used to recognize that moderates and liberals love our country as much as they do, and simply have different views on how it should be run. I miss those days.

The group went our separate ways, but the group chat remained active. One topic was how much easier it was to breathe in our new locations.

We were in Egypt w/ CA friends for two weeks in January. The air was so smoggy & heavy. All of us were coughing frequently. No one was sick, it was just hard to breathe the polluted air. We talked about how it was like the air we grew up with. Even the GOP guy said, “Maybe some regulations are ok.”

Fair point.

My grandpa was an alumnus (1935-ish?). He used to joke in the 70s and 80s that the school’s name had come to represent: You see LA? Nah, you see LA? He did live long enough to see clean air. He’d be sad to see we are going backwards, even though he was rather conservative.

I grew up with Smog Alerts and Stage 3 Smog Alerts. My kids didn’t. My grandkids will. Effing ridiculous!

Was Baby Trump rejected from Harvard, or is 34F’s jerkiness unrelated to that?
