Defective chicken, hard-left gadfly, olde person in the way. TJPW/DDT/ChocoPro fan. Like Dennis Miller without the traumatic brain injury.

Especially at a time when the same guy wants to declare the previous presidency null and void by fiat because "just look at him, he couldn't have been able to answer questions about anything even when he actually did"

I don't know if there's any erotic fanfic out there about the Real Ghostbusters villain who sold his soul to a demon to get the power to remove all chickens from Earth.

But if not, that needs to be fixed.

The world contains many who insist that the 'culture' of an area -- and by that they mean the ethnic / religious diversity, the country of origin of its residents, and what options are available -- is something that should be unchanging, static, and vigorously defended.

Nutjobs, less politely.

It also helps keep the scales in balance -- no overfarming of the locals, the young'uns stay busy and learn their ways in relative safety, young women who would NEVER I say NEVER seek out bedtime companionship retain a subtle method of opting-in...

Count Bela de Magpyr would approve.

"Strong floor" I agree with -- shoring up protections and spending on those who are most in need of them.

"No ceiling" means that the corporate Democrats have the reins and will make sure that pesky regulations, tax increases, etc. won't encumber the ultra-rich or threaten to slow wealth inequity.

As usual, the UK is the cautionary tale. Hence how Labour absolutely gutter-stomped the Tories last year, yet so mismanaged pretty much everything that their approval rating's just below that of colon cancer now and the UK's fascists are waiting to pounce.

Like, I just looked up the Billboard Top 100 for one of my mid-teen years. There were around ten of those that I can say that I would ever want to hear again, PERIOD. And the first "oh, that song is actually really good" was at #91.

There is good music out there in every decade. It's just not... ever... what gets played on pop radio.

Robert's Rules of Order are the first refuge of any scoundrel.

"Show me a specific statute that criminalizes this exact behavior" is trying to Air Bud straight-up murder and it's exactly what I'd expect from someone who can live in a house with Stephen Miller.

It had struck me as unwitty
I think it may start a rumor

Antique shops are great for this. Build a wall of huge oval frames containing random ancient grandparents you've adopted for yourself.

It's one of those phenomena where if a vote is 218 to pass, as an example, a rep wouldn't mind at all being #317 in favor but would balk hard at being #217 or #218 under the media microscope.

Resistance comes agonizingly slowly until the cork pops and bunches flow forth at once.

And migration is a two-way street. A town, a city, a country should learn as much from its newcomers as they do from it. Each side will adopt what's attractive to them and evolve from there.

Which has been the story of America for generations.

(There's no Sharia in Dearborn, BTW. Silly FUD.)

There is no one "American" to become. That's the whole point.

Whether your bloodline arrived on the Mayflower or it arrived three days ago, whether your whole neighborhood looks and sounds and acts like you or they've never seen your like before, being "American" should mean wanting to be one.

The great Clark DeLeon, former Inky columnist, once speculated that it was the Quaker heritage (you are not better than us, though you're paid like it) mixed with blue-collar crudity into an odd combination of motor impulses. "Yo, pal, thou knowest not what thou speakest of, asshole. So fuck thee."

Philly is no stranger to hosting terrible teams. Look at the extended history of the Phils, for example, outside of a small handful of boom periods.

They are less offended by mediocrity than by teams and players who are SUPPOSED to be great but are underperforming badly. That's when batteries fly.
