#ImGettingOldBecause I grew up with things like Play-Doh, silly puddy, the slinky, smelling your test paper that just came off the carbon copier & best of all was using the Texas instrument calculator.
@EdSpeaksFreely@amvetsupport It’s ok to speak what’s on your mind, but if you’re going to get upset about how someone reacts, then clearly you’re not ready to accept the consequences of the action of speaking what’s on your mind. I don’t put political stickers on my car for a reason. My vote is private.
@amvetsupport How is this different than the President threatening the Governor of Pennsylvania? I understand your anger, but as veterans, we served to protect the rights of Americans to speak their mind.
I mentioned yesterday that if I saw subcontractors in the trump parade yesterday, as a general contractor, I would no longer use them. Had my first chance this morning. Told a plumber we would no longer need him. God that felt good. Best part was telling him why
@ChardonnayFreud@EaglezFan Umm, except I don’t see Melania having much to do with them. More likely to be family members like Eric & Junior or Ivanka & Jared. Just my 2 cents.
@TGWilsonLBC@DearAuntCrabby Umm, but you have fires, floods and earthquakes. Not sure if that’s any better. Not to mention COVID is outta control in both Florida & California.

@dlk245 One example: the soldiers coming home from WWII. If you were white, you got the GI Bill, & maybe went to college. If you were black, you got nothing. No college, no chance to move up socioeconomically. You could get a job like bus driver or janitor.
#SystemicRacism my brother doesn't understand this term and I did a poor job of explaining it. Would you please tell me what this term means to you? Honest discussion. If you do not think it exists, don't bother answering. Thanks in advance.
@mlzema Congressmen who helped organize militias for the Bundy standoff - and speaking of Bundys Ted Bundy's childhood home.
And the endangered tree octopus, of course, primary food source of the sasquatch.
@leavingsuburbia@T_Inglesby He said the economy will be back up and running “soon”. Even clarified that it’s not after the 15 days but he “expects” us to get back to work before the 3 month estimate that has been “floating around”.
I knew reading comprehension is poor in the US but apparently hearing too.
In last 24 hrs there've been prominent US voices calling for a stop to social distancing, citing rationale that they're worse than impact of COVID itself. It’s worth looking very closely at that claim, where we are in US COVID epidemic and what happens if we stop. 1/x
