Democrat. Jezebel. Oxford commie. Enigma wrapped in bacon.
Politics, common sense, appreciator of outliers.
Ph.D., Nordic stuff. Espoused.
The gods are indifferent.
Think for yourself.
Concept: A god that demands worship and praise.

Puzzling, innit.

Oh, I wish I could agree. I believe the TFG invasion—what better word?—along with the GOP and Fox News, has altered our cultural character.
Americans—once a loud, outgoing, big-hearted people with admirable ideals—
Now a nation increasingly tolerant of cruelty, racism, self-interest above all.

Delicious. Signs & trucks in DC poking the corpulent, necrotic beast.

Re: “L’Appel du Vide”—The Call of the Void.
What an interesting read!

This, admittedly, is why I’m careful about getting too close to the edge when visiting Niagara Falls.
That weird physiologic beckoning!

Evidently, I’ve been under a rock, and missed all the voices praising this new book.
This thread provides pieces of its brilliance.

Did you ever see the No, David! series? I loved the illustrations even more than my kids did.

Just a heads-up for crap like this, seeking credit card info.

Beware.

Wonder how this’ll go over in that rural Iowa diner?
Not that they are likely to hear about it.

Again, this kind of news should be blasted from the rooftops.

Schumer is a compromised loser; Jeffries has dead eyes & the fire of sock salesman.
MSM doesn’t care.
Dems must designate a leader to lead.
