“As the rhetoric demonizing people outside our borders grows more heated, those who do not want to outsource our thinking to politicians should try to put ourselves in new places, take ourselves on new adventures, and meet the people with whom we share this rock.”
Yeah, toss it for sure. You probably want to make a trash run if you can. If not, wrap it well before putting it in your waste bin. Or keep it in your freezer until your pick up day. It’s going to smell.
A disaster is unfolding in Western Alaska. Record rainfall, record flooding. Houses have floated, people are trapped in their homes, and some are unaccounted for. Undoubtedly we’ll learn of further damage in coming days.
How long has it been expired? If only a day or two it should be OK. Just be sure to cook it well, which you should do with chicken regardless. If three or more days it’s a goner.
My dream amendment would restrict all campaign, party, pac, and dark money donations from the president clear down to the smallest of local offices to citizens who can vote for that candidate. Zero business or interest group contributions. If they can't vote for you, they can't fund you.
Also, invasion or attack only would have meant we'd have fought Japan but not Nazi Germany. Americans in 1941 would have opposed that side of the war. Thus Soviet advances would have likely resulted in the taking of all of Europe by Stalin. And the Holocaust would not have been atoned for. Not good.
Abolishing war unless invaded, or requiring a nationwide vote on declaring war, could have avoided 2&1/2 centuries of messes and left a much smaller military industrial complex. But would we have fought more proxy wars overseas and how many deaths would have followed? A question to ponder.
Abolishing the Electoral College would right the second worst wrong in the Constitution (permitting slavery obviously being the most grievous). Limiting personal wealth would keep government more answerable to its citizens. Adding more vice presidents would be stupid.
I knew about the base but haven’t been on social media much lately. What sort of BS is there going around?
As you know, it was the left that launched the 9/11 truther movement. The capacity for this stuff isn’t exclusive to the right unfortunately. I got in a few smack downs over that one.
Denny Regrade. Back in the 80s when I lived in Seattle you could walk along Western Ave. and see the windows of the old buildings they simply filled in and slapped a cement wall partway over. They fixed that after they discovered the Cascadia Fault. We’ll find out if it works when the big one hits.
