(Oh, and we were total corporate shills, too: and most of us still are!)

The Hippies didn’t do that: it was their parents who put Ron in power to undo the ‘60s! (The “Greatest Generation” wanted their kids to cut their hair or put on bras & make grandkids.)

Now, those of us born in the ‘60s were Reaganauts: something like 2/3rds of us voted for More Ron in ‘84. 😳

That is far from the only nefarious cumulative effect of Reagan’s policies! We are at the point where the youngest people who were able to get even a toe-hold into the pre-Reaganomics American Dream are in their late ‘60s.

I actually like drinking beer that’s warm enough to taste, myself: and as I lost all tolerance for alcohol during the “bad” years of my kids sleeplessness, I drink my nightly beer so slowly that it’s much warmer in the end, anyway!

But the straw bit is right out.

Or know anything about physics & biomechanics…

These are the days, as Natalie Merchant sang...

And Oin & Gloin!

Wait, I think that I lost the thread of this thread…

They were still the younger, hipper teachers in my day, being a little younger than our parents, and much less stuffy than the older teachers. That said, their lionization of the ‘60s (when we were born) did rub some of us the wrong way: they made it clear that we had missed the best of times!

Lol: one of my “hippy” HS teachers had a collage of Lennon & the Marx brothers titled “Lennon and a bunch of Marxists.”

Oddly, I feel equal parts envy and pity!

… last appearances. That will take some rekerjiggering of basic algorithms. However, I hope to see that done in the not-too-distant future, too!

Hey, note that Dear Leader is most emphatically *not* collapsing!

Bottle it: I expect that the backlash will be intense.

The “feminism” in “conservative feminism” is sort of like the “socialism” in “National Socialism” or “Democratic” in “Deutsch Democratic Republic.”

(Or the “fish” in “fish sticks”…)

I never thought we’d get a pod Neanderthal…

But did Gorsuch think that this is a bad thing?

I like how he cut out most of the miracles on the grounds that those were obviously silly.

But surely being able to feel shame of any sort and working at the Heritage Foundation are mutually exclusive conditions?
