I'm so very sad for our country. It's just getting worse and I'm losing hope.

You want to have good bowel sounds too.

This crap should be called out on the front page of every newspaper, every time. I mean, a lot more consequential stuff needs to happen too, but this is bare minimum. People who aren't online a lot may not realize this is the tenor of the administration.

"The Battle of Los Angeles" continues. Hell yeah.

I cannot fathom this flavor.

As someone who also lives in Salem, I agree. Immigrants make bomb food, help raise the crops we all love, and are generally friends and neighbors.
