What is Pure Cane Sugar?

Bill Clinton could certainly give even Trump lessons on communicating to the masses the benefits of "being touched by my noodly appendage".

I guess that also means the Noodles in Trump's case are in a mushroom sauce.

Or at least find out who's a secret Furry.

High praise from a town whose bar scene is good enough for one of them to inspire the name of a pretty good Brooklyn-Hipster music group.

State Laws do not apply to the Federal Government or its agencies. Next time you see a US Post Office truck, note that it has no license plates, as it needs no license plates, being owned by the Federal Government and thus exempt from all State laws.

Maybe we should fix this, and soon.

Likewise, a lot of people forget or pointedly ignore how much of the French Army in both World Wars was black soldiers from French African colonies, how much of the British Army was African or Indian, and how many of those guys fought at the front in some of the worst fighting of the wars.

George H.W. Bush famously voted for the Fair Housing Act as a US Congressman from Texas, then justified the vote to his (mostly white and very Racist) voting base in an impassioned speech about having seen Black soldiers and sailors serving in the Pacific in WW2 and vets should live where they want.

I used to work in an mortgage-broker office down the street from Blago's congressional offices. Our phone lines must have been next to his in the bundle, as if I picked up one line I could often hear his receptionist faintly answering calls in the background. I bugged his calls before it was cool.

Ah, I'd read somewhere they had an actual base, but apparently except for a German administrative office in Virginia (no one does bureaucracy like the Germans, heh), they all operate out of US bases, but some on a fairly permanent basis.

I got my fill of playing around with live Venus Flytrap plants taking frequent shortcuts through the Biology Department Greenhouse in College. They had a whole table of Venus Flytraps and various pitcher plants, it was awesome.

There's a German airbase in the SW somewhere and many of our small NATO allies also send their air force pilots here for training because we've got big empty deserts with large areas of already-closed airspace to do it in, and they, being tiny crowded European countries, do not.

A lot of them were pretty right-wing while alive and old. Not all, by any stretch of the imagination, of course.

A better meme would be to show an Anti-Vietnam protest or the crowd at Woodstock and marvel that those Hippie Boomers would one day become fanatical Qanon-loving Trumpers.

Already have in one eye.

I'm a firm Atheist, but I think she could get me to at least give religion a serious thought.

Lorna Dune? But wouldn't all that water be bad for the Giant Sandworms?

Well, at least I understand the T.A.T.U. part.

Now if only so many of them didn't pick Otto Skorzeny as the Action Figure they want to play with the most.

In a hot-pursuit car chase, perhaps. Probably not when just pulling away with the suspect you've already got in custody.

600 people? Over a year and a half? In a country the size of the UK? My, how will you ever cope with this flood of humanity.

What is the Dark Starr Report?

Nice to see Frogs as a symbol reclaimed from the days when Pepe the Frog was such an alt-right/racist symbol that the famous video of Richard Spencer getting punched in the face happened mid-interview just as he was explaining his Pepe lapel pin to a reporter.

...once they started making them for the civilian market again.

No American generation since then really knows what War is like. To not just see it on the news or even have someone you know die in combat. But to have to go on a waiting list for staplers, so the Pentagon didn't run out of them.

One thing that fascinated me was the ads. So many companies had gone over fully to war work, but still ran ads for stuff they couldn't sell until the war ended. I was especially struck by this ad for Bostitch Staplers, where you could get on a waiting list to buy a stapler....
