Hmm, African-Americans joining the Native peoples? Would have been an interesting scenario. Lot of questions to answer. Like would the Native population see them as invaders, too, for example. I do know different tribes treated runaway slaves they encountered with varied attitudes. Might have to research that.

Yeah I know it isn't, I should have said "anarchists". (I was lazy typing last night) I can definitely agree the knowledge of history and government has proven painful to watch. Note: I also seem to see people get libertarianism and anarchy mixed up a lot.

Turned out I was a minor tweak from their office away from getting it fixed.

Their giant eating machines

In hindsight they were pretty impotent as Presidential candidates.

Kind of half and half with indoor outdoor thing. Not really complaining about doing, so much as hearing how it is so minor a thing. And I seem to be built more for cold than hot as is.

Yeah, that was more what I had heard in passing. So, I can't really confirm.

Generally sporadically through history, but much more often and increasingly powerful as population as exploded. For a galactic or universal view, it has flowed and ebbed, depending on where and when you are or had been.

Well, mentioning that I think parents is one reason for my irritability at times. Haven't visited since late March, due to his health issues, and me being essential worker. So, sometimes I expect I will get to see him again at his eventual funeral. I do call some, but I am exceptionally bad with phone conversation. So, it amounts to 3-5 minutes here and there.

I dont know. I do think he might have overstayed by about 5 years. Just seemed like at times his body just couldn't hold up to the job anymore. He isn't the first, cough Strom Thurmond cough. No shame in that it happens to people in all walks of life. It is hard for some to accept the end of public/work life.

They were pioneers.

I will say most so called anarchist I have met seemed to be more of the dictatorship of people who I agree with style of govt. For whatever that entails.

I dont know about supplies, but I am pretty sure the city sent in porta potties. And near as I could some of the residents themselves discouraged people coming in. Dont know all this for sure, though.

Well, Friday lightning hit near the house. Blew out the phones, the central air. The TV in the den along with the comcast cable box and ps4 connected to it. We actually had a new phone we hadn't set up yet. And the central air just needed a new fuse. And as for the ps4, I dont play on it much, so I can wait awhile if ever. The cable box and TV have proven another experience. Apparently, technology has reached a level in the ensuing years beyond my capabilities. Programming it has proved difficult and the few successful moments came when I threw the instruction manual in the trash and looked it up on the internet. Well, just needed to rant. Off day tomorrow, so I will get the joy of calling Comcast/Xfinity tech support. Sincerely, The Luddite Badger

Anyway grocery shopping today and I counted mask wearing percentage. Rounded off 72 percent. (21 of 29) Assuming no double counts either way.

I do hate hearing the only minor inconvenience argument. I am wearing a face blanket in mid July. So, I am making constant save rolls vs passing out. No offense, but it does make me wonder if people who are saying that are wearing their mask.,

Maybe, though the fact he can't let an opportunity for trash talking the opposition makes it harder to know, which is which.

I did have a dream where Khan and Dr. Zaius became allies. Seems they'd hate each other with their supremacy complexes, though.

Yeah, I seemed to have mostly bounced back. When I think about it, having that type of moment tends to get my focus back on track. I dont pretend that it makes complete sense.

Sorry. It was more me venting, really. Last week was, especially brutal at work.

That paints a dim picture of Canada Man

I try not to go there. I dont want to go there. If I change Putin to CCP I worry I will end up questioning half the nation's decisions the last 30 years.

Is there even a consensus on who they are though. The article wasn't really any help, other than denials of involvement.

Our county got up to 200+ recently. It started fast in May and then slowed down. Basically if the rest of Va is doing bad we are in good shape and vice versa, or no matter what hAppens we in lockdown state or local

I think the protest/riots/both? was probably what set that off. Well, other than the earlier hoarding.
