I handle the yellow copies at The Department of Redundancy Department. Maybe if popular opinion was usually right, doing what’s right would usually be as easy as doing what’s popular. I’ve noticed it consistently is not.

I think a lot of umbrella type statements about this kind of thing are too wide. Social contracts tend to vary by setting.

I keep a generous patch of shaggy lawn myself, so I get that aspect. Different things are appropriate to different locations, and I don’t know yours, m8. I also understand people in tight residential areas worrying about slippery slope conditions 🤷‍♂️

“Location, location, location.” The condition of a piece of real estate affects the value of the other real estate in the area, which is a lot of people’s only significant asset. Doesn’t exclude the neighbor from also being an asshole tho.

We used to have things that were truly fun. Then, they got clinical sounding names from sociology text books, and they aren’t fun anymore because the people who talk like therapists and need words for everything showed up.

Happy 4th to those who celebrate, and happy 7 and a half or so to those who used to celebrate, before the incident.

A lot of people around here acting like holiday dinners are going to be awkward now because someone they never knew did something sleazy. WTF, people 😂

Call it what you like, but “tradition” comes from the very same pile of poor excuses as religion and patriotism.

I normally do, but this is particularly gross, it stuck out. Please, spare me the bit about tradition, nobody is obligated to pretend to be people who have come and gone.

“This is why I don’t vote”.. Okay. This is why I don’t read the NYT. They’re dull people who have led dull lives. You don’t get interesting writing from dull people. 🤷‍♂️

Not much in the way of birds showing themselves on Whixall Moss yesterday, but plenty of insects, including these bitey b'stards! Managed to avoid them, but not the mozzies! #insects #ukwildlife

The able bodied among us would be. They’d be effectively throwing other people’s lives at the problems in this/their house. Then, they’d have to have the further audacity to ask still other people in other places to make space for them. Everyone fears for their lives, their fear isn’t special.

It’s not unique to Americans, there’s been tons of such worthless scum throughout history who leave their country when it needs a fight.

Some people on this app are so mercilessly stupid that they’d lament the fact that Mussolini didn’t get a trial. There’s no thought outside of the institutions with them.

If we’re still leaving this up to an election, we’ve lost. Even if we win the election, we’ve lost. We grew up and went to school in this ridiculous country, there’s no reason for any of us to think we can vote our way out of this.

The problem is Trump, yet folks are talking about getting rid of Biden. This country refuses to do the right thing. We may as well lock up and turn out the lights in this country if we’re going to remain so collectively soft and worthless.

“Trump is a real threat, maybe we should get rid of Biden” is the kind of thing you only hear from the most stupid people to have ever lived. If Trump’s the problem, then the solution is to get rid of Trump, you inept idiots.

I was going to watch the debate, even tho it’s really performance art and not an actual debate, but it’s a binary choice, so it really doesn’t matter. If they put a head in a jar and run it against Trump, I’ve no choice but to vote for the head in the jar.

To each their own, I’ve enjoyed most of his stuff. I knew people who were a lot like those in his movies, but they weren’t me at all, so it was perfect. A fun cinematic ride without being bored to death by watching my own story played back at me. It works 🤷‍♂️

I get the impression that my friend, Lori, is still kinda friendly with him. He got her (now ex) husband to shift his focus to acting instead of all music, and he ultimately went A-list. I’ve only heard of Nic being a decent guy, but haven’t met him.

But they’ve mostly stopped breaking it as well, so I’m going with half full on this one.

Donald Sutherland was one of the best to ever practice his craft. I hope his loved ones find peace in appropriate time.

You’ll get no argument from me about them being good for leisurely long distance, where you’re stopping for lunch and whatnot.
