This is the guy at the weekly poetry open mike who everyone waits for because they know it'll be some unhinged bullshit

he has no idea what anything will cost, he just pulls numbers out of his ass for everything. He doesn't remember from one day to the next what he said, so those numbers change.

There's a "clubbing baby seals" joke in here somewhere

What's funny now is that with the advent of voter data info apps, I get GOP candidates knocking on my door because they think I'm a Republican household, according to my primary voting record. I've surprised several with some choice questions and concerns on my front porch, lol.

As an independent voter in a deep red state (SC), I routinely vote in GOP primaries, sometimes there are NO other party candidates running in the general election for that position. Also, if there's a real wacko running, I can vote against them to help avoid them moving on to the general.

yeah, you think it takes a long time to get to your car now... yikes.

Hell, I've been writing about music for 35 years and there are still some fairly prolific bands I have missed out on. I long ago resigned myself to the fact that I cannot, in fact, listen to EVERYTHING. Still gonna try, of course.

quite a few adults could benefit from watching more PBS Kids shows, too...

Bold of you to assume they'll care about real data.
