I think it's a prelude to "We're not paying anymore, it's their fault for staying there."

Prezdint Stable Genius sees right through their giant welfare scam! Keep getting slammed by these so-called “hurricanes” then profit!

All time record for anywhere? Try looking at aid to Afghanistan. $49.87 billion in 2017 alone. Been going on for nearly 20 years.
That’s a lot of paper towels 

That typo at the end secured my star.

The tipping point you’re worried about happened thirty years ago.

And lots of people work but do not have jobs. I’m thinking of stay-at-home elder-care. This is happening more and more due to demographics. The abililty to afford paying thousands a month to nursing homes is outside of most family’s capabilities. So the aging parent stays home and the rest of the family tries their…

“Porto reekins are illegal immigants and should go back to their shit-hole countries. MAGA.”

Futurists have been saying that technological advancements will render human labor unnecessary since the spinning jenny was the latest and greatest. The capitalist class will always find a way to keep us exchanging labor for scraps. 

Wow! Yet another big storm heading to Puerto Rico. Will it ever end? Congress approved 92 Billion Dollars for Puerto Rico last year, an all time record of its kind for “anywhere.”

Yeah, and it’s pretty standard for prisoners to have more than a space on a crowded floor to sleep, and to have access to basic cleaning supplies and showers. And I would think there’s substantially less babies and children in typical prison settings. You want to talk about standard practices when we’re talking about…

So all of them should have something so important, their only communication with the outside, taken away because some have chosen to disregard that? And after what they’ve been through, three-way calling? Seriously? It’s inhuman. I’m sure Trump will be using it in his next speech: “These Mexicans, they’re rapists,…

According to ICE, the hotline was shut down after detainees engaged in three way calls and call forwarding, which is “prohibited.”

Same here, I got to see him twice. To judge Marceau by any film of him at work is unfair because its so inaccurate, like judging Middlemarch by the rough draft of the Cliff Notes. Most TV shows added music, which distorts the performances. Besides, like all theater, the live part is essential to the art.

I just loved Brook’s surrealism; you make a movie about trying to make a silent movie, and the only person who speaks in the entire film is the mime!

I saw him in person in the seventies in Philadelphia. He was wonderful. And I hate mimes, but he was different... He pulled you into his world making you much more than a casual observer. It was as if you took his sublime expertise for granted so as to pull you in and when that happened, I can’t describe that…

You skipped over Marcel’s finest moment…

Seconded the no-contact. I moved across the country from my dad (yay!!!) and straight into the dc suburbs (son of a...)

Luckily it’s my mother in law, not my mother (though helping my husband navigate this has been no picnic). And yes, no contact for 11 years next month. But now she’s got cancer so we’re drawn back into the fray. I hope your no-contact order stays intact! It’s the only way. 

As the fellow child of a narcissist, sometimes you have to go no-contact to maintain your sanity.

I know from experience that being the child of a narcissist, even the favorite child of a narcissist, always ends badly. Barron’s lucky that no-one seems to remember he’s there.
