  1. I'm in the US, and most of our fresh produce is not from here. I'm remembering the meme of the girl who said, who needs farmers, buy it at the grocery store. How many people understand imports and exports (other than George Costanza).
  2. Biden said kill the bird flu chickens. The bird flu was left out, so just Biden raised egg prices because he's responsible for all of the bad. It infuriates me how they twist things.
  3. Intelligent women, people of color, you know, the competent people who are trying their best, are somehow bad for the country. Meanwhile we have nazi saluting billionaires who have (not) our best interests at heart.
  4. I think it is brown people in general. I lived in SoCal for a couple decades, and my neighbors were great people. This fake thing about immigrants being evil people is to distract us to the real evil right now.
  5. Do you do something weird with popcorn like you do with french fries? I like the seasoned salts.
  6. I love to watch what I call revenge porn. Oh, and Kathy Bates as Matlock.
  7. You make a good point about some words. I listened to myself say "little," and it is "liddle." I do hit the t on water. A friend of mine says wahdah. My mother-in-law is from Pennsylvania but does not have a strong accent. It comes out occasionally but she likes to appear posh.
  8. Americans will hit that hard T, so yes briTTany. BriT--Tany. Okay, so some regions have accents. There is a region of the US that is considered to be without an accent, so news people are encouraged to speak with this non-accent.
  9. Thank you for the link. Carlin always said it like it is.
  10. It is definitely regional. I would pronounce it as tie-dull. American English, we do like our T sounds. Not that much, though.
  11. I've seen the photos and recipes with everything floating in jello. I would need drugs to dumb myself down to be a wife in that era. It hasn't improved that much. We still do the majority of housework and taking care of schedules and kids. I'll add that I chose to not have children. I was happy to have the choice and used birth control.
  12. You have these sound bites without substance.
  13. Some of us already think he is pretentious. Of course it is "younger than I (am), but I get tired of people saying "I" when it should be me.
  14. Jacky is someone who I really wanted to succeed. When they showed her making breakfast after her surgery when she could eat solids again, I saw her portion control is still not where it should be. That breakfast would have made me a bit sick full, and my stomach is its original size. Unfortunately, I see her probably eating through the stomach reduction surgery.
  15. There is a lot of red there yet.
  16. I've been thinking California could secede because of being on the coast and being a big part of the income.
  17. I read so much that let me know I wasn't gay, but I knew not to hate people. Letting kids read and enjoy books, how does that hurt anyone.
  18. I wanted to reiterate that he is an adjudicated rapist, a convicted felon., for those in the back. Apparently this can't be said enough.
  19. I'm recently from a very large state that provides the socialism that many in red states claim to hate. You like your roads? How about they are gone? All of your support systems? Gone. Those liberal states support you, and I hope you get a taste of what think you want. Sorry, I did go on a bit of a rant there.
  20. Who will save us from ourselves?
  21. A few did, and people didn't listen.
  22. They got it. Now we get to enjoy "interesting times."
  23. I think it's more than a handbasket.
  24. I've been enjoying the show. I can suspend disbelief. I like the actors, the drama, the whole experience.
  25. Oh yes, willful ignorance. I went to a not Ivy League level school, but I couldn't believe some of the people who made it there. But being willfully ignorant, not even trying, gets me so angry. So many opportunities to advance yourselves. (I mean intellectually, not politically.)
