@Dane So sad, without hyperbole, a legend.

@th3j35t3r But I am not a legitimate response, been retired and indolent so long that I think work is a dirty word.🤪

@Dane great info, thx

@WeThePeople An understatement I fear.

@MisterE i have been here since 2017, but thx.my point being if this site is going to turn into that kind of post/poster being a regular feature there is no point being here if everyone has to be blocked. I am here to help create a community and conversation. An alternative. If all I do is post, having had to block multitudes with negative behavior, there is no point being here.Might as well just write a blog or diary.

Just had my first disappointing experience on COSO. Took a long time to happen but just like the bird site. Called useless BS and a liar. That isn’t how we are building the community, is it? And of course, after posting that, the person blocks or protects their posts. Makes it hard to even know what they posted about. Going to have to rethink being here if this place is going to be like the other place.

@QueenPhillippa Harry needs help. His publishers sent the book back to have the salacious stuff added and his subsequent rant is only so it can be monetized. His advisors may be wise about creating income but they are not dealing with his pain or mental health.

@TheNewsOwl Thereby helping the court case to prevent his getting any investigative material.He has a sympathetic court to review and should have trusted his buddies to seek the info for him. But he gave the court the one thing they know would impede the Criminal Justice System.

@sjjh @TheNewsOwl Perhaps for you but it has always been my experience. If the TV is on, I don’t pay attention, its like white noise. If I turn on music, I start to mentally sing or follow it. Radio like NPR gets me Active Listening and my brain win’t shut down. TV I know to dismiss so its my noise of choice for sleep.

@CoSoTips I am being a bit obtuse, I guess but I do not see the little identity icon.

@Jezibaba So sorry to hear this. Get the meds if you can, I hear they work wonderfully.

@Kimmycott It was handy when I broke my foot a few months ago-I needed a bench for the shower and between discounts and coupons I got a nice teak one for 50% off. But you are right.

@th3j35t3r Ah, adulting😉

@th3j35t3r Only is it comes out of the pockets of the Reps keeping the House from getting down to business. They don’t care if it ciats the government money.

Carrot has decided!

@Pungent Be sure to write that down as it is not only a judgement but one that needs addressing with a therapist in evaluating whether this course of therapy will be of benefit.

@Kimmycott They are at the point of no return.They are in the process of shutting down the one by me.It is the only one north of Milwaukee.They have no stores in Milwaukee. They think their customers will drive completely across town? This is an urban area that doesn’t drive that far even for dinner.I grew up in Chicago and recognize the difference. And their business can’t survive on online business as its main selling venue.

@DJNoneYa Well, I turned on CSPAN to see if they sorted things out overnight. With less and 75 votes in, it was already not possible for McCarthy to win on the 7th ballot. If he can’t wrangle the votes after 2 months and 2 days of voting, how does he think he will ever be able to control any part of his party? And now they are not even serious, someone voted for tfg.

@carmen That is actually what the “Freedom Caucus” wants. They are not there to govern.

@carmen it actually has more effect than you think. If 5 more Rs join her, it changes the number needed for a majority.
