I would volunteer to help with that for sure--- any info on how? I live in a green (allowed) state & could offer the use of my address.

AnneWimsey replies on Feb 13, 2022:

@nicestuff they do have sign-up stuff, and Google gave me 2 Planned Parenthood clinics an hour away each, up or down I-95. Should have done something other than send money before this!!! Marched on DC twice under Bush I, an 8-hour rickety bus ride each way, and here we go again! To say I am ENRAGED would be a massive understatement!!!!!!

When was God born?

Beowulfsfriend comments on Feb 13, 2022:

I have often wondered about the massive amount of unpublished material on Koko the gorilla and if religion as a topic was ever broached. Koko did discuss death, very unwillingly, as just darkness. Something like that could give us an idea of our ancestors.

AnneWimsey replies on Feb 13, 2022:

Koko is smarter than most, and especially Mormons!

Resurrection

DenoPenno comments on Feb 12, 2022:

Mankind has always believed in some form of resurrection. This is a basic belief because we cannot accept that we will no longer exist at some point. We do not want our thoughts or ourselves to perish.

@Triphid res ipsa

Maybe these laws will help keep him out of our face...

ChestRockfield comments on Feb 12, 2022:

Am I the only one seeing the problem here? It clearly states, "anyone *holding federal office* who is convicted of this crime". He is not currently holding federal office...

Purely on a physical level I'd do her. I'd hide her panties (to burn later), and kick her out afterward, but she's....she's not going to speak. Is she? That would change things.

UNFIT X45 RUNNING WILD WITH THE FRINGE Republican Wyoming Rep.

p-nullifidian comments on Feb 12, 2022:

Hijacked? Trump’s a populist with a majority of the Republican Party pledging support. Those who don’t are being censured or replaced. Trump was recruited and is still the crowd favorite. He didn’t hijack the GOP; rather, the passengers found another “pilot” so they could all willingly fly...

AnneWimsey replies on Feb 13, 2022:

I have more faith that the quiet majority has seen/heard "quite enough" and i believe recent statistics on who is drawing the most money for their campaigns (moderates) bears this out.

With two ad interruptions in less than five minutes, I abandoned it. Hope it turned out well. My friend in high school had deaf parents, so some of us learned the ASL alphabet and a few word signs so we could communicate with them. I sometimes “eavesdrop” a little when I see deaf people ...

Do you know that the Third Reich put out tons of "comic books" depicting Jews as exactly that, "filthy vermin", before descending into murdering them? Maus is a direct reference to that shamefulness!

Crazy fashion statements, not big on the practical.
