Aint No Right

Everything has calmed down for the most part. At least I'm not see the dark spots/lines anymore. Depending on the light, whenever I look down I see what looks like a little puff of white smoke out of the corner of my right eye. It's not bad but every now and then it still startles me. It's hard to b...

Pretend It's A City with Fran Lebowitz and Martin Scorsese Really, really good. If you've lived in New York or frequented the City it's really funny, good even if you haven't. Haven't laughed that hard in a while. :rockon: There's like 7 or 8 episodes so far. :cool: Sitting down with filmmaker Mart...

Poor gas station etiquette (aka assholes at the gas station). I pulled into a small, very busy gas station with two aisles and four pumps (2 pumps in each aisle). One aisle is occupied with two cars, so I pull into the next aisle which is closest to the front door of the store/station. This aisle cl...

Sorry to hear about your friend KV.

People in my area take mask-wearing and social distancing very seriously. It seems so odd when I see/read about people in other areas being so cavalier about it.

I have to say I really enjoyed the day from watching the inaugeration earlier to this evening's festivities. Everything was done really well.And how about those fireworks at the end- WOWZA! I finally watched this (Celebrating America) on Sat. I agree; it was well done. The fireworks were intense at...

Does anyone experience having these freaky things? I had an abrupt introduction with them on Wed. They started out early in the day as small gray bubbles here and there in my right eye. Then the bubbles got furry. My husband said they were eye floaters. Around 11 p.m. I started seeing huge , black, ...

Hospitals are pretty full here, but we seem to be doing better than in other parts of the country. I've been coming across some pretty horrifying reports about California; it's like the way NY was times 10. :nyrexall: I think CA hasn't gotten as much nationwide coverage though since the past few wee...

^ There is an area in Boston known as Methadone Mile that has gotten progressively worse, specifically over the last five years when fentanyl became more and more pervasive. One contributing factor for the decline of that particular area is that a bridge connecting to a recovery center/homeless shel...

If DJT is convicted in the Senate after his term, another vote can be held to bar him from running for office again. He can also lose benefits granted under the Post President's Act (pension, travel expenses etc.) https://www.archives.gov/about/laws/for ... dents.html

Jesus Christ Hoka. I don't know how to teach you how to fucking read. Start with getting a dictionary.

I have clearly disputed those "specifics." Really? Where? You think the vaccines are going to work based on a total of 55K people who have gotten doses two different vaccines, where one showed protection for a seven day study period . No one has seen the actual trial data. The process has been acce...

That's not how this works. With both Moderna and Pfizer reporting incredible results by targeting the ...

I think most of the US is going to be in serious trouble by New Years, far moreso than at any point so far. The arc of new cases is simply out of control. There's just so many stupid, selfish people out there. And politicians are useless and government run services and general medical care are star...

Despite what I think of John Bolton, he can be funny: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/week-transcript-11-15-20-adm-brett-giroir/story?id=74218239 I don't buy the argument that Donald Trump has hypnotized Republican voters or they're not capable of accepting the truth. This is a myth that's being per...

Trump's lawyers just dumped him. I was surprised this firm was even representing DJT since Don McGahn is one of the partners. McGahn was involved in the Trump campaign and later became White House counsel. His relationship with Trump was fraught with tension. He left in Oct 2018. He did not leave on...
