I think that it was more along the lines of my belief that changing people’s attitudes is often very slow and happens in many tiny steps. For example, 20 years ago I went back to university (in the northeastern U.S.) when I was in my early 30's. In one of my courses a discussion occurred in which the professor asked…

About to get on a plane to go see my 85 year old mother in America for the first time in almost 3 years. Wish me luck everyone.  

They should just remake "The Breakfast Club" in the Star Wars universe.  

I haven’t looked at a map or anything to confirm, but the more reasonable parts of Michigan can become part of Canada if there's no other option when you break up the U.S. It’s okay with me.

I'm gonna wait for the Snyder-cut. 

Hi Krispy - It sounds as if your shelter supervisor is on some sort of power trip. Just be careful, despite the fact that you’re a great asset who’s done nothing wrong. So apparently my friend Alyssa’s cat has 28 toes! I haven’t yet seen this one in real life, but I might try to confirm at Christmas time if I finally…

I haven’t seen any in this thread so far, but I’m always amazed by those people who believe that films are shot in sequence (from opening scene to final scene) and that the entire cast is on set all day, every day.  

I had exactly the opposite mental image of a lobster giving God "the claw". 

The first season is "okay" and that's only because of the cast. Not the story. 

Broadchurch wasn't actually any good, but yet we all felt compelled to watch it. There. I've finally spoken the unspoken truth. 

I tell people over & over again that it’s simply not worth it to spend an excessive amount of time shopping for the “best price”. Instead you should just look for a “fair price” from a company you feel that you can trust and you feel comfortable doing business with. Every business needs to make a profit. 

YOU might not be saying that he’s a bad actor, so I’ll say it for you. He’s a bad actor. Unless you want someone who is completely stiff & uninspired, that is. Apparently he's a nice guy, but I'm thinking he should be relegated to the local dinner theater circuit. 

Thank you for everything that you do to provide support for the nurses & their patients. 

But the Phanatic is still no Gritty. 

It continues to sadden me that some of them will live longer than I will. I'm okay with Tiffany & Barron outliving me, but the rest of them need to go. Soon.

I am also steadfastly opposed to suit shorts, but LeBron actually kind of makes them work. Far far better than I could ever hope to. 

Well I’m from an hour north of Philly and when I was in junior high school (40 years ago) all I heard was that “the Mexicans were coming to steal your jobs”. Now it’s 40 years later and the ethnic mix of my hometown has barely changed at all, although there are now a few more good, hardworking, Latinx families living…

Nah, Walmart also prefers for their employees to keep their racism secret.  They don’t enjoy bad publicity.  

I heard a piece on CBC Radio’s “The Cost of Living” the other day which stated Canada has the lowest supply of housing per capita of any of the G7 countries and there would need to be 100,000 additional housing units available TOMORROW for Canada to be anywhere near where it should be. So yeah, the rules of supply &…

Hey now, there’s plenty of good places in Pennsylvania. To be fair though, there’s also plenty of miserable ones, but even the miserable ones can be “okay” if you’ve got the right companions. As a former Pennsylvanian I’m kinda curious though, which part of the state are you in?
