I’m happy to be here. I’m old and grumpy. When I first signed up for F*ceb**k I described my politics as, Social Liberal, Fiscal Conservative, and Loose Libertarian. I see very few true conservatives and libertarians these days. I used to enjoy calm rational political discourse based on facts. Blind hate has replaced reasoned disagreement. Let’s bring back tolerance, facts, and kindness.
Religion?No thanks, I’ve had enough. I’m atheist, recovering Christian. I have no regrets about the religion in my background. Practically? Church was a nice place that taught me some values and made me question other values.
Politics?I’ve heard too many people say, “I hate politics.” Yeah, we all do but you need to think about policy. Policy affects us, all of us. Ok, so who makes policy… say it with me “politicians.”

I was so high the other night that I forgot what I ordered from the Mexican restaurant. Obviously I ordered too much food. I picked a huge chimi burrito looking thing and decided I wanted 1/3. I could not cut it open. I remember thinking damn I’ll bet the center will be so sweet and tender. As I tried to bite the end so I could get to the delicious filling… I remember that I ordered Mexican street corn. It was delicious

@LRRRonEarth I feel like I’m living in a solipsistic universe . . .

I remember listening to George Carlin talking about being the class clown.

I didn’t realize till years later that I was the ghost writer for the class clown. I’d sit close enough to a disruptive kid and I’d whisper witty comments and the class clown would blurt out my line.

Even today I can feel the satisfaction when my line got a huge laugh in class. Content in my anonymity.

@StillIRise1963 @panamared27401 I mean it’s no more batshit crazy than his theories on usurping the US Constitution.

If Darwin's theory is so great, why are there still people less intelligent than monkeys asking why there are still monkeys?

@RickiTarr You are probably to blame for much of the congenial discourse here.
