This was fabulous Joan! Now get them to send you to Paris, London, Rome and Barcelona so you can blog about them too!

WTF is up with Kinja? I can’t access any replies to my comments.

Yes.  Alan Specter was a GOP senator that switched to the democratic party.  They can switch parties if they want.  Mostly they do it because they think it will help them get re elected.  Here’s hoping that the turn coat loses to an actual democrat in 2020.

I wasn’t even aware of them.  They haven’t done a good job of getting the word out.

A real 2019 sentence, y’all: “President Trump opened a new, dental front Sunday in his periodic feuding with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, suggesting on Twitter that her teeth were falling out as she answered a reporter’s question about why bribery was not made an article of impeachment.”

I have a Google Alert that sends me an email every day with the stories being printed by various news outlets, one alert if for Elizabeth Warren, and one is for Bernie Sanders.

Does anyone in New Zealand need a good landscape guy? Have Masters in Econ. - will sleep in heated barn.

Basically trickle down economics is one of the most successful con jobs in history; getting voters and the main stream media to buy into the idea that letting rich people and corporations keep their money would mean it would trickle down onto the rest of us.  It was just a scheme to help the rich and powerful.  I…

I hadn’t heard that term before.  It’s a good idea.

I can’t blame you.  Bad things are coming down the pike; I just know it.

Do you live in a state that has Medicaid expansion? If so, I believe that Medicaid covers dental work. Call them. I have Medicaid and keep getting mailings saying as much (to call them about dental); I haven’t done so yet, so I don’t know the details.

Then you have a lot more faith in the Supreme Court than I do. I don’t believe they will have any restraint. Not only will they overturn Roe v. Wade imo, but given a chance, I suspect they will give a fetus limited personhood rights.

Fair point; Miller is the oldest young Nazi that I’ve ever seen.  

I agree; it does endanger capitalism.  And frankly, capitalism works better when more people have money in their pockets; like when they aren’t drowning in student debt or medical costs and have a living wage.   Who are they going to sell their goods and services to if no one can afford them but a small handful of…

I don’t think it’s eugenics either, at least this data app, who knows if this guy has other weird ideas or not, I just find it an odd thing to do before having even gone on one date with someone.  

I don’t think I was implying that there is only a binary choice here:  random hookups or serious relationships.  I just find it weird that this is a dating app.  Rather than something addressed through genetic screening if, and only if, a relationship gets serious.

In a dating app though?  I understand getting genetic screening for yourself.  But unless the only purpose in dating someone is to marry them or have children with them; it seems excessive.

Why do billionaires even exist?

Something only a room full of psychiatrists can answer.
