I like the elliptical, but I couldn't even do that with the knee thing. The day the gym closed, I went down to Academy, where the dumbbell shelves were as empty as the toilet-paper shelves in stores. So I said fock it and bought a whole gym and that thingy that allows you to bike in place. With three nose-picking teenagers in the house, my garage became a wellness and recreation center until we had 43 cats in the house, and then I couldn't use the gym because a cat would have gotten squished for sure.

This Rusty guy appears to be capable of having a legit convo, which we are in short supply around here. But instead of going that route, he goes the Newbie/ MDC one. If you think I'm a lefty, you should have seen the political bar brawls I used to have with Torrid Joe back in the day. On a serious note, I'm despising the polarization and extremism in this country right now. I'm not representing the left when confronting the noise and threats coming from the far right. I'm not representing the right when I tell Torrid Joe and other extreme lefties that violence and vandalism is the wrong way to further their political agendas. Both ends are equally intolerant of each other, and this is unacceptable. I've spent a lot of time in the past year seeing Facebook friends wrap themselves up in right-wing anger, buy into ridiculous conspiracy theories and spread blatantly false information they'll almost fight to the death to defend. Like Tucker Carlson, they'll believe whatever comes out of Clownzo's mouth and run down the field with it without thinking for themselves and checking it out. I've spent a lot of time in the past year seeing Facebook friends wrap themselves up in left-wing calls for violence and vandalism and watching asshats like Lemon, Maddow, Cuomo and Anderson float their opinionated garbage on CNN and MSNBC. I recently spent a few days listening to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck. I have a Parler account. I've seen and heard where this angry rhetoric is coming from, the kind of people who use terms such as "sheeple," "deep state" and "our cities are burning." We aren't, it doesn't exist and they're not. This same language is rife here, with talk of revolution and civil war. But the only folks talking such things are the ones who keep moving farther to the right from Fox News and delusionally believing Clownzo will somehow pull out a victory in all this. It's not rooted in reality, and it's hard to have a legit convo with an extremist left or right. So here I sit in the middle, a fascist to those on the far left and a socialist/liberterian/communist to those on the far right. And our numbers are growing, because despite our political, spiritual, social and other differences, we can find common ground and stand unified in agreement that polarization and extremism needs to end for the sake of our country. A legi convo to me starts and ends with respect, open-mindedness and the ability to figure out a way we can all work together. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're down to 26, and I did notice one missing the other day. He's semi-feral and had taken to hiding in a cranny of the garage, where I'd spent two days cleaning with the door wide open. I finally found him jammed in the cranny, and he ran back into the house when discovered. He must have been grateful, because has since decided he's not feral and become a cuddle bug.

It can take around 4 years to build and open a presidential library. That means if Trump wins in 2024, he would be the first sitting president to ALSO have a library celebrating his presidency.

The radical nutjobs at FBGs then LIED about my opinion and said i WANTED a civil war, called me a nazi, and permabanned me. now im over here warning of a civil war, telling people to be prepared. And did i just read another FOCKING moron in rusty try to lump me in with people who want civil war? I mean if i am reading this right he is LYING about my opinion and then claiming to represent the middle. shut the FOCK up rusty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
