@tugboatmcpuppy : I agree wholeheartedly. Call them out! Sadly, whenever I do so on popular sites, like Facebook, I end up getting “policed” by AI agents who identify my words as a violation of Community Standards. So, say nothing and ignore the haters… or speak out and risk censorship and potential ‘jail time’ — which option do we pursue?

When I was six, I asked for a pair of roller skates for Christmas. On Christmas morning, I opened my present to find a single roller skate.
I knew my parents didn’t have a lot of money, so I was still grateful and determined to make it work and I thanked my mom and dad and went outside to play with my roller skate.
I proceeded to “skate” along the curb with the roller skate on my right foot and my sneaker on my left foot and I was honestly having a blast when my mom came outside.
Mom: Uhhh…what are you doing?
Me: I’m roller skating, mom!
Mom: Yeah, but why are you only wearing one of your roller skates?
Me: There are TWO skates?!?
It turns out my mom wrapped the roller skates separately to give me more presents to open, but the other roller skate got buried in the Christmas morning shuffle and nobody noticed because I didn’t say anything about only receiving one roller skate.
Today marks ten years since I lost my mom and, every so often, I remember that day because it was so very her, doing whatever she could with what she had, even if it meant wrapping presents separately to make me feel like I had more.
If your mom is still around, hold her tightly. If she’s gone, remember the good times fondly.

@alfredo_liberal Yet it’s not happening, nor is it likely to happen anytime soon. Our ‘modern day’ interpretation of the Second Amendment has made sensible oversight of guns and ammunition next to impossible.
@alfredo_liberal : Extreme violence demands extreme solutions.
@alfredo_liberal Which means more senseless killings, maimings, and accidents at the hands of those who own guns. Every. Single. Day.
Americans no longer deserve their Second Amendment.
@freakwater What torture to spend even 4 minutes on the phone with either one of those cretins.
