There was another woman I think about sometimes who was very upset about maga hats and I thought she was overreacting. I also owe that woman an apology
My partner showed me this a couple years ago. Now, we'll be talking or I have a thought and the conclusion is "America" to which the follow-up is "want to put it on?"
It hits me harder each time I watch it especially how things have further eroded since then
Edit: I was curious and checked out the comments. They were surprisingly wholesome but I didn't scroll too far. However one sent me down a bit of a rabbit hole and I found something that made me do a double take:
Every RADICAL in Congress VOTED for NEGRO SUFFRAGE. Every RADICAL in the Pennsylvania Senate VOTED for NEGRO SUFFRAGE. STEVENS, FORNEY & CAMERON are for NEGRO SUFFRAGE; they are all Candidates for the UNITED STATES SENATE. NO RADICAL NEWSPAPER OPPOSES NEGRO SUFFRAGE GEARY said in a Speech, at Barrisburg, 11th of Angust, 1866-"THERE CAN BE NO POSSIBLE OBJECTION TO NEGRO SUFFRAGE"
It's the writing style. If that is the type of material that one reads in their formative years it makes sense that it's emerging again in the twilight years
Ps. I'm sorry I spent so much time on this it just struck me and I had to explore. Made me sick at some points. To be clear, I support everyone's right to vote but the above quoted message was demonizing that sentiment. Also to be clear, Geary was a white man and won that election
I had the absolute fortune to make my way through there at the end of last year. It was so bizarre to me that for the most part people are left alone to follow the rules with no oversight
And for the most part I saw everyone behaving well and not doing anything stupid; except the group of people trying to take pictures of a bison who was clearly unhappy about how close they were getting. He was grazing and would walk away a couple steps and they would follow. The boi was swishing his tail and showing what I saw were "leave me the fuck alone" signs and I had to at least shout to the people to leave him alone and they were fucking idiots. I was HOPING that they got charged and had some sense knocked into them
My partner and I had had discussions previously about what we'd do if something like that was about to happen and the kiddo in the car. If it's just us adults then we'll stay and watch the carnage but we'll take off if they're with us
I'm kinda high and read this and was thinking "conjugal" and was like "oh yeah sure, that makes sense." But then I realized it made no sense at all. But I'm still 100% on board
Bigger yes, dumber no. It's like saying dogs are dumber than cats. They're just different and "smart" at different things. I don't see packs of tracking cats going out on search and rescue missions
Awww I loved that! The horse was weirded out but mostly ok. His body language was calm and he followed her when she walked away, which is a sign it respects you and sees you as someone to trust and follow
I've noticed that trend, especially with high-volume posters
Some things are posted with substance and other times it's just a link to a pic of a random artefact in a museum. Ok, it's cool looking but is it significant? Not that that matters but if you're going to post something at least include why. Other than "I hit random"
Because grey is a fantastic color, and grey hair is just another color to dye it. Plenty of people dye their hair natural colors, too, not just to cover up greys
And plenty of people with grey/white hair enjoy and love it
"Glenn Close isn’t the only famous face that can list a cameo in Hook on her résumé. Musicians David Crosby and Jimmy Buffett also appear as members of Hook’s crew, as does boxer and Rocky star Tony Burton. Elsewhere in Hook, stars including actress Carrie Fisher, director George Lucas and musician Phil Collins also make brief cameos."
I had no idea!! I'll have to give it another watch when I get home!
It's delicious and the perfect temperature, thank you 🫶
