I’m just curious. What is the most depressing book you’ve ever read? For me, it was A Fine Balance. When I thought things couldn’t get worse, they did. Not sorry I read it though. I still think about it from time to time.

This may not be a good time to ask this question but I’d appreciate any responses. Thanks. 🙂

It was an Oprah Book Club pick in 2001 I think. That’s what prompted me to read it.

Kyle Clark (CO) has been a bright spot in MSM for a few years now.
Move his ass to D.C.
Shove one of the talking heads that refuse to rebut lies out & put Kyle in that seat.

"Rep Lauren Boebert (R-CO) has returned to Congress with a laser-like focus on the issue Coloradans sent her there to solve: underwater space aliens."

Let's all remember... and NEVER forget.

14th Amendment, Sec 3, does not say you must be found guilty of insurrection... only that you participated.

The Southern California resort town of Palm Springs is set to approve a $27 million reparations agreement with Black and Latino families who were forced out of their homes in the 1960s, making it one of the first cities in the country to do so.

Feel like this gang is well suited to be able to address this.

I need a few large investors, some 3D printing equipment and some small cameras and pc boards with a memory card slot.

Gonna mass produce body cams for the people.

She camped out with them at higher ground 4 days without contact with the outside world, hauling water from a fresh spring."

Had to run an errand, and ended up across the street from this amazing house. I absolutely love it.

I may make it a project to walk around and take pictures of some of the old Dallas houses. Lots of amazing tree-lined streets and beautiful houses.

In a city where the average home price is under $350k (median is $425), that neighborhood has very few homes come on the market--and the median price is $2.5M.

This one has a carriage house in back, so it's probably significantly more.

Coming in from MegemikoArt on FB.

General Strike 2028

Trump is a scab, Dems need unions, Dems are not faithful to unions, unions make the Dems better, workers want unions, the public loves unions, and union membership is falling.

Pete Hegseth Argues Women Shouldn't Be In Military Combat Roles

“I’m straight-up just saying we should not have women in combat roles. It hasn’t made us more effective, it hasn’t made us more lethal, it has made fighting more complicated,” Hegseth told the “Shawn Ryan Show” while promoting his book, “The War on Warriors.”
