My neighbors mostly voted for Trump, though. People are complex, even it makes us feel better to say otherwise.

People are altruistic. In my neighborhood I could go to a benefit for someone every week if I could afford it. We’re pretty much professionals at putting on fundraisers and selling raffle tickets. I went to one recently for a friend of a friend who has breast cancer. She has insurance, but even so her bills are…

What a lovely thing to say. You’ve made my morning. Thank you!

Yay! I hope it works out.

You find clothes that are as comfy as yoga clothes but in fancy materials! I saw a super cute, comfy, silvery hoodie in H&M today. It was only $25 (this was still not in my budget). Anyway it is comfy clothes that you can wear for a night out, what could be better?

IF it’s legit, they totally do payment plans. Don’t freak out yet! And for sure call the actual IRS, from the number you get at IRS.gov, not the one on the letter. It could be their mistake, too.

Someday he’ll be ready. Maybe he would be into Team Rubicon. They don’t focus on PTSD. They are a group of veterans who do disaster relief around the world. They were a huge help in my neighborhood after Hurricane Sandy. I believe they have a Canadian branch (I know there is a U.K. one). It may not be his jam, but it…

TR is for tags. There is a way to make groups of your friends though and make it so only the ones you want see your posts - not sure if there’s a thing that will also let you keep certain groups from posting, but worth a shot.

Not sure if your friend is eligible or already aware of this foundation, but thought I would share in case it can help.

$300,000.

I’ve seen Gleaming the Cube WAY too many times.

Don’t kid yourself, people still go bankrupt from medical bills. Obamacare didn’t work miracles, it got a lot of people coverage but it screwed a lot of people too. I am surrounded by middle/working class folks and I know ONE family who has better coverage under ACA, everyone else pays higher premiums for less…

If you are a member of AAA I recommend going in and having someone help you plan! It is free for members!

I am super late BUT you could see way more of the southwest if you cut out Mt. Rushmore. I plan road trips for a living. I would not put Rushmore on this route.

Preach it, women are gross. I totally use the men’s room if the women’s line is long (and I have a dude friend to spot me) and men’s rooms are generally cleaner.

And half the women aren’t even bothering to flush the toilet (WTF is up with that? So so gross) so they really should be faster.

Meh, only Irish Catholics. It was more about being borderline satanists (the Protestants’ idea of catholics) than being Irish.

I’m from rural CT but my family is from NYC and I grew up visiting all the time, taking the subway, etc. The first time I went to Boston I was 12 or 13 (so, late 80s). About three hours in I leaned over and asked my mom “Where are all the people who aren’t white?” It was bizarre to me that we had been traipsing around…

Totally, I can’t abide what Scientology does to their members.

Yeah that definitely happens with some ultra-Orthodox sects as well. I’ve worked in Midwood and Boro Park and seen the segregated buses, followed Orthodox dress codes at my job, etc. It still doesn’t compare to what goes on upstate. They actually tried putting chains across public roads to keep outsiders away, but the…
