Has anyone told that to the 2017 Dodgers?

I started college at 17 and the upperclass guys called me 'jailbait' for a reason. 17 is not legal. 15 is not legal. The end.

Republicans are setting the stage for acceptance of older men having sex with young teens, hoping their base will continue to defend Trump when the extent of his crimes becomes known.

They also don't understand that, with a single-payer system, no one would be paying for services they don't use. The stupidity is stunning.

Or independently wealthy attorneys, trust fund babies, or grifters of some kind.

$260K? How about we stop pretending teaching is a calling and pay teachers even half that much.

I understand all that. I was replying to the specific statements made by some in comparing European cities to ones in the US.

(As a tourist in NYC, I'd say many of the same things about the parts of the city that tourists tend to visit.)

True about some things, but most of us tourists tend to stay in the tourist areas. Things sometimes look different in other parts of the city or country, even in Europe.

And notice that none of them felt the need to scapegoat immigrants as the reason Americans are struggling. It's almost like a good chunk of us have caught on.

Wait, they told us at the polls yesterday that the runoff will be Dec. 13th. It's all still much too late, obviously.

If the umpire hadn't made that terrible call in the second (I think), it would have been Blue Jays 6-5 and only 9 innings.

Don't take medical advice from a grifter and conman with no medical training whatsoever.

Blue state liberals are honestly some of the meanest, most myopic people I have the misfortune to come across online. There are more Democratic voters in my state of Texas than in the entire state of Massachusetts, but still we get discarded along with the red voters here.

I live in Texas. Of those who voted in 2024, 46% of us voted for Harris. And a lot didn't vote at all. Yes, there are a lot of people who vote against their self interest, but those who voted against all this don't deserve to be discarded along with them.
October 26, 2025 at 6:51 PM
Devious. I approve.
October 26, 2025 at 5:35 PM
It's what *some* of them voted for. Please don't discount all the people who happen to live in red states but who most definitely did not vote for this.

Also, go Jays go!

When will you be opening up your asylum program for Americans? We are self-supporting and super polite. We don't talk too loudly in restaurants or stand on the left side of the escalator. We believe in equal rights for all people and in protecting the environment. Can we be Canadian, please?
