Hope it heals quickly.

Don't Dems just cancel/dox people? Isn't that akin to bullying?

We have all battery powered stuff here too; mower, leaf blower, weed eater/edger. They are great. Haven't had a gas mower in over 15 years I think.

CA doesn't outlaw their use, but gas powered is no longer sold in CA. Most of the people I know just drive to NV to buy one. ETA: They don't really bother me. The yards where I live are relatively small, so if there's any leaf blowing, it's not much. The common areas around the neighborhood have landscapers and gardeners that come and mow, etc. But they aren't close enough to my house for it to cause a big disturbance.

Oh yes, I don't like it when people do that; add their own "stuff" and flair to the song? Or sing it terribly on purpose ike Roseanne Barr, no. It's actually meant to be done as a march, not a big old song.

This happens all the time in CA, especially at our rivers. Nothing new.

So I am officially "no party affiliation" on my registration. Which means, I basically cannot vote in the primaries. Not sure if this applies to me, but I'll answer anyways. When I vote Dem now, it's mostly for social programs that I believe in. I read everything that they send with the voting booklet, pros/cons, who is funding, etc Most of the time if I follow the money, then I vote accordingly if it's something I am okay with. Right now, I am really saddened by the fact that CA voted to let illegals into the Medicare and Medical programs. Those programs are now bankrupt and it's only been a year. They are now talking about passing legislation that to qualify, you have to make less than $2k/monthly. This will remove the majority of those older people out of those programs - leaving them to struggle to find decent affordable healthcare. But hey.....illegals get it for free.

All of this and they are totally against colonialism. The flag doesn't represent freedom, but more oppression of minority groups, slavery, bad cops, capitalism, white men....I mean, the list goes on. But when I hear my Dem friends talk, this is what they usually bring up. Yes, I am proud to be American. I always have been, even as a child. I am one of those that gets weepy when the National Anthem is sung or played, and I stand and put my hand on my heart.

We get a very small box of fireworks and do them at home. Kids are grown, so they don't really care much anymore, so it's mostly just for us.

ANOTHER TRANNY THREAD!!!!

Yes. I have a fully papered champion lab. Came back something like 95% lab and 5% something like Rotty. Which was odd because her brothers and sisters from her litter had a full blood panel and they were 100% lab. It's been a long time and I can't find the actual results, but I was shocked. I have her ACK and family tree and there's no Rotties going back a long way.

Nevermind, was thinking of a different movie.

Thanks.

I have no idea what city it's in...I don't keep spreadsheets of this information like you do.

That is just nuts.

WOW. I wonder what happened? Is there a link to read more?

Again, please keep putting people like AOC, purple haired granny, and Warren out there with their anger and yelling. That makes me want to vote Dem, for sure. Shout louder, that always works.

Ah there's Rusty...testing out another alias.

I agree with you. There are a few social programs that I believe in as well, but they need more oversight. We spend so much money and it's due to things like fraud. that's not fair to the hard workers who are law-abiding citizens both at the Federal and State levels.

This. I have voted Dem in the past several times and vote across party lines occasionally. Just keep putting people like Bernie, AOC, Gavin, Warren and that blue haired grandma Senator out as your spokespersons. No thanks.

Fixored.

It sucks because I doubt we will ever TRULY know what happened to him, you know? I mean, we know that she didn't hit him, that the snowplow didn't see anyone in the snow, etc We know all of the factual stuff presented in the trial. But to know exactly what happened would be nice.

Do you also say, "Froe-Drick?"

81% of "some kind of sexual assault." Ok, include harassment. Does that make it BETTER to say that 81% of women have been sexually harassed or assaulted in their lifetime? Falsely accusing someone of r@pe/assault/harassment? WRONG. Yes. Abhorrent. But even if 80 women out of 100 were assaulted and 10% of those 80 are false, you're still talking about 72 women that were assaulted out of 100 vs 10 out of 100 men falsely accused of it (or 2 out of 100 if you use the lower end of the stat because the stat is actually between 2% and 10% are false). So if a woman comes forward and says she was assaulted and harassed, the stats show that she probably was. It's less likely that he's being falsely accused. I don't think the issue here is that women "just need to be more aware of their surroundings and not get so drunk all the time." Also, I am tapping out. As a woman on a male dominated message board, this isn't a subject that I will get through to ANY of you on...simply because you've never been followed when you're out running, never had to make sure you had your keys in your hand a certain way when you walk to your car, never had to be careful of what you wore when you went out because some man might think that cleavage = sex. You just won't ever get it. Unless and until a female in your life goes through it. It's scary. It's awful. And I really pray that it doesn't happen to someone you know and love.

81% of women have experienced some kind of sexual assault in their lifetime. Of those 81%; half of those experiences are by someone they know. At the MOST, 10% of those cases are false, and that's being generous. Again, maybe men need to quit being so r@pey. I'm done responding to you.
