So much for the right to bare arms:

Lawmakers in #Missouri House of Reps adopted stricter dress code for #women..now requires them to cover shoulders by wearing a jacket...cardigan or knit blazer...

"Y'all had a conniption fit...when we talked abt maybe wearing masks in pandemic to keep each other safer..I know some govs require women to wear things over their face, but here, oh, it's OK bc we're just talking abt how many layers they have to have over their shoulders"

@DarryB We go back and forth to California. We're legally permanent residents, but can't live here full time because elderly FIL is in Calif. But we have a townhouse and have a safe haven here.

@GottaLaff Well I'm sure the Canadians will welcome you without too much issue when it finally goes to shit. Sounds like a lovely way to live, and Canada and California are incredible.

@DarryB Thank you for that. We just love Canada. But we’ll miss California when we move permanently. It’s great there, you’re right.

@GottaLaff My Brother and I spent 18 months driving the length of the US. From New Orleans to Vancouver.
I found LA to be a hateful place but the rest I enjoyed.
Such a incredible diverse place.
