“See, I did join the army, but I joined a different army. I joined the one with the condos and the private rooms.”
Not creating an equivalency, just talking about history. I’ve met folks who remember Kent State vividly. I’ll be with some of them on Saturday, and I’m bringing my phone.

True, but gamgam and pee pop remember when the national guard killed 4 of their fellow college protestors. And the national guard is back doing awful shit. I don’t blame them for being careful.

Girl Scouts used to have a recipe for Mystery Soup. Each troop member would bring some soup (likely canned). It would all go into a big pot over a fire with lots of water. Members would take turns stirring, and everyone would enjoy it when it was heated through. A delicious way to learn cooperation!

My grandfather fought in the Battle of the Bulge. He lived with shrapnel embedded in the right side of his body for the rest of his life.
