"From the oceans
To the prairies
To the mountains
White with foam..."

Gotta love those foamy mountains...

Its times like this that I wish ignorance caused physical discomfort on a constant basis.

No shirt is due to bullshit religious morality issues. No shoes is more of an anti-poverty slogan albeit with a very minor personal safety benefit. Masks, on the other hand, and meant to protect the health of yourself and others and for some reason the MAGAts are making that their bill to die on, literally.

while she got help.

Fox "news" has made this insanity popular. Fox "news" is responsible for 99% of the politically-tinged insanity in this country today.

Something REALLY needs to be done about right wing propaganda.

...on the local cable channel. It was comedy gold. Besides all the nut jobs that would get up and speak, we had city councilman JJ Armes who ironically had no arms. He actually had his own action figure. At almost every meeting he would offer to kick someone's ass on the city council.
