It’s to the point now that Covid deniers are attacking anyone who expresses concern about the bird flu.

okay---Nice View! Mt Elbert is the highest, tho. But, I think Mt E is one that does not require technical climbing--but it is a very strenous hike....

I agree that Trump is more “power hungry” (this really is not a good term and I am sorry I used it) than Joe Biden but I can’t think of any term...

Ah, but when he was elected, he was NOT of diminished capacity, or at minimum, LESS SO than his opponent. In 2024, we (well, not ME!) elected...

to the bold: Yes, exactly. Electing old feeble Joe, pretending he was up to it for 4 more years, would be delusional. People (well, me anyway)...

So one last act of “constitutional vandalism” on the way out?

wow that is a big reduction of your Christmas decor!

Welcome back, NewGig! There's a woman at the pottery studio who has a donation box for unloved pieces . Apparently she brings them to a charity...

I can see Pike's Peak out my kitchen window. It is a 14er though I don't know if it's the highest in the state.

Got my W2 today and filed taxes on my phone at lunch. It’s simple. I only owe the federal $220 this year. It was at least $1500 last year. 401K for...

It seems to me to be more of a "let's throw this mess at the incoming administration" tactic.

What???!!!! In the name of Phyllis Schlafly and over her grave in Alton, IL, I say “ Get back thee, oh Satan/Biden.” Now I will have to go...

If you think about it, even the "Latin" bit is problematic. https://sixthsunridaz.com/not-hispanic-not-latinx-not-mestizo/

I have done a lot of multicultural market research and I've learned that the Latin community does not prefer Latinx, but when we were creating the...

Mailed this week: books, puzzles, and family photos. The books are more store stock, yes, I'm still purging that, although almost done now... But the...

Reference to the person making the joke … republican … too big a deal out of “labels”.

Rogar: So from my own biased worldview, I always assumed you included some fish in your diet because it is so delicious and irresistible, lol. ...

I think it's interesting that the term "Latinx" was coined by mostly white liberals in order to show other white liberals that it was more important...

Are you familiar with the surveys that show people of actual Latin descent dislike the term “Latinx?” Are you calling them white supremacists?

Thank you for your kind words and listening.

Sounds like the epitome of a white supremist IMO. Upsets their sensibilities?

As a point of reference, here's what he says he will do on day 1 according to a recent NBC news. I'm sure there are more, as he's made any promises....

Pardon the Jan. 6 characters. Close the border & start drilling.

A plurality of the voters didn’t seem to think so. I think that was Maher’s and Carville’s point.

I'm with ya up until the part about learning to discount such language, lol luxury beliefs? boutique policies? That's some funny stuff, lol.

I don’t think Maher and Carville could be fairly characterized as overly sensitive conservatives. I think they are concerned about a party elite and...

I seem to remember a time not so long ago when the *ahem* conservative element derided liberals of being such lily-livered pansies that they could be...

That should be the new bumper sticker for the Republican Party: Loathsome, Unqualified, Republican!

I do not want to see Hegseth confirmed, not so much because he seems like a loathsome human being, but because he seems to be totally unqualified for...
