  1. Never heard of the Hudson Hawk before, sounds bitter! Brrrrrrrr...........
  2. Christianity definitely believes in hell. How could they have an all loving gawd w/o hell? I'm only familiar with Christianity, as I was raised Catholic. (which at age 18 I walked away from and never looked back)
  3. Can't fix stupid. "The Supreme Court may consider if states can disqualify Trump from their primaries. No matter how justices rule, it will not alter the Silver State’s election....When Nevada’s Republican voters receive their sample ballots for the state’s presidential preference primary this month, the name of the party’s current frontrunner will be missing. His absence has nothing to do with any legal challenges to former president Donald Trump’s eligibility to participate in the state’s primary....No, Trump is ineligible for Nevada’s primary ballot because Trump’s campaign didn’t fill out an application to place him on Nevada’s primary ballot." Trump cannot legally qualify for Nevada’s 2024 primary ballot - The Nevada Independent
  4. Agree, the ageism is everywhere, even here.
  5. And the racism and misogyny would be ratcheted up to way past 11. Not interested in that, the ageism thrown against Biden is more than enough.
  6. Reagan was a major part of the problem though. He was awful, let's review, his racist 'Welfare queen buying Cadillacs bullshit.' He ignored the AIDS crisis and let a lot of Americans sicken and die because they were those icky gay types. His misogyny towards women with his anti-abortion stance. A stance he changed to run for Prez as he was not pro-life as gov. of California. Yes, I heard his radio address that supported abortion when he was Gov. His tax policies and other bullshit. HIs war mongering Star Wars bullshit. So yeah, he was a real problem. The '"real problem" had a lot of inputs, and Reagan was a major one in his time.
  7. It took longer for the word to come down in Reno, but when it did, that room went crazy and cheered, danced, cried and kissed each other for about 25 minutes! I loved it. I need to call my local Dem party and get involved, although my door knocking days are over. (health issues)
  8. That should do it! I canvassed for Obama in 2012 and look at what happened, he won!
  9. The thread title is fine. It's sunny here today. Hooray!
  10. Perry, IA is a suburb of Des Monies, where my sister lives. She has two grown children, but still, this happened in her town. Last month it was the shooting in Las Vegas, where our youngest brother's son is attending. Enough with the school shootings assholes! jfc!
  11. Kennedy is an anitvaxxer, conspiracy theory grifter and all-around asshole. There are many articles and podcasts that explain this. He's running only as a spoiler for Biden.
  12. Hahahaha! They won't be able to come back, and the galaxy they land at will be full of woke liberal atheists who won't put up with their shit. Ah, the bright side.
  13. Trouble is, as soon as this technology becomes available, it will be monetized and militarized. If you ain't a millionaire or a billionaire, it won't be available to you.
  14. 123123 1759 Arthur Guinness signs a 9,000 year lease at £45 per annum and starts brewing Guinness. 1790 Efimeris, the oldest Greek newspaper of which issues have survived till today is published for the first time. 1907 The first New Year’s Eve celebration is held in Times Square (then known as Longacre Square) in New York, New York 1991 All official Soviet Union institutions have ceased operations by this date and the Soviet Union is officially dissolved.

  15. Ah, thank you! I'm more familiar with the one finger salute.
  16. I know what a one finger salute is, what is a two finger salute?
  17. In the US, it’s called an elevator. In the UK, it’s a lift... I guess we’re just all raised differently..
