I'm totally for this and I bet it would work, too. We've seen the level of ignorance that went into how people chose to vote. If OnionWars puts up those kinds of stories, along with the occasional article declaring Jones actually still owns InfoWarts and any news stating otherwise is fake, they could ease these nutjobs back to sanity.

But is pronounced to rhyme with rubber.

Want to win a chance at maybe having power? Enter the contest by falling in line and kissing the ring.

Fuentes, Gaetz, MTG, Miller, Boebert, Lake -- none of these people are boomers. GenX at most and a lot of millennials. A quick glance through the Southern Poverty Law Center's Leaders of the Radical Right show a lot in their 30s and 40s. Boomers vote and spend money, but they're largely too old to be activists in the traditional sense.

I swear for every positive story about something Biden did, there were 3 or 4 about Trump just being Trump: saying some outrageous lie, gaffes, and of course all the crimes. He's sucked all the air out of the room for 10 years and now we're going to have another 4. All news, positive or negative, is publicity.

Some percent of chicken already does, for sure. I'm saying that percentage is going to go up, probably a lot. Iirc chicken packages have a processor number printed on them, and you can look up statistics on how many times salmonella was found there.

Here we go

They also plan to kick away the safeguards around chicken processing so while that price might come down (also hard to say, since undocumented also make up a chunk of that workforce), the chances of it having salmonella are probably going to go up.

Here's a comic that covers the worst parts. 21 pages iirc

He's lost it. First getting ripped up by demons, now he says abortions cause hurricanes? It seems like his brain has turned into a Swanson frozen dinner.

"Voting for Harris is like having an affair"? That extrapolates into some pretty creepy implications about how they see their and their wife's relationship with Trump.

They think it's okay to do because they think they need to "balance out" the enormous amounts of voter fraud they're convinced is being committed by Democrats. The problem is, that's a complete lie, the Dems have done nothing. Every news story I've read about voter fraud in this election cycle (3 or 4?) where they actually mention the party, it's been a Republican.

 

This stephanotis was given to my parents for their wedding in 1961. It bloomed every year for my mom. After she passed in 2019 I took it home and did my best with it. But apparently these plants are notorious for being a bit fussy and resisted all my efforts to get it to flower. Two years ago I read something about how they don't like being rotated, so I stopped doing that and bought a grow light to keep the non-sun side from going bald. That seems to have done the trick. There are about 5 or 6 clusters and this is the first to open up. And yes they smell fantastic!
