Got the fam vaccinated for flu and covid. I don’t know my if the insurance company will cover the covid but I’ll pay out of pocket if not. Looking into the pneumonia vaccine for myself since I’m apparently of that age. I understand it’s an ass kicker though.

This is performative. Some of the buttons are in poor taste but not to the degree of some of the Trump stuff I saw at Ohio County fairs this year, not to mention Confederate flags. (I thought this was Ohio?)
Encouraging violence? Please.
Trump won Ashland County with 74% of the vote.

In 2017 Japanese police arrested a 74 year old man who had committed over 250 burglaries dressed as a ninja. He avoided most surveillance but was spotted “navigating tight spaces and running on walls”
Sadly, comment mentioned nothing of him yelling “Whatta Haul!”

My daughter’s ridiculously stupid expensive calculator would not power up she and her teacher charging it. I pulled the battery, ran a screwdriver under underneath the copper fingers, re-inserted the battery and we’re golden!

The level of racism at CPAC was so extreme it seems no one bothered to post about the “joke” Trump made about only being able to see Black people in the room because of the lighting. This is the kind of weirdo remark that 15 years ago would have sunk any candidate and now it’s just like 🤷🏾♀️

Nazis mingle openly at CPAC, spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories and finding allies
The presence of these extremists has been a persistent issue at CPAC, and in previous years conference organizers have ejected well-known Nazis and white supremacists such as Nick Fuentes.

Ask your friends how they’re doing. Offer help if they’re struggling. Take them out for a meal. Offer help with chores. Listen if they need an ear. It makes a difference.
