I can always tell when...
I can always tell when it's a full moon. The Trump supporters cannot accept blogs with opposing political views and they resort to slinging insults to the OP.
C'mon people, this isn't your personal site. We are guests here and have to abide by some simple rules for conducting ourselves.
Yahoo articles used to have a comments section and that's been eliminated because too many people with the mentality of a teenager in mom's basement ruined it for the others.
I recall another site that had similar outbreaks. Different folks, similar arguments. They are defunct now and it wouldn't surprise me if the moderators of CS lock more blogs.

Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos is donating $100 million to food banks across the U.S. so they can feed needy Americans as the novel coronavirus cripples the economy.
"Even in ordinary times, food insecurity in American households is an important problem, and unfortunately COVID-19 is amplifying that stress significantly," Bezos said on Instagram Thursday. "Millions of Americans are turning to food banks during this time."
The donation will go to Feeding America, a Chicago-based network of more than 200 food banks that feed 46 million people. Forbes ranked Feeding America the second-largest U.S. charity by revenue. The nonprofit generated $2.9 billion in revenue in 2019, most of which went toward sending food to pantries, according to a 2019 financial report.

Locking a blog
Closed comments on my blog as an angry self righteous individual started throwing insults at another blogger for voicing their own opinion which I understand is everyone's right ?
What Is Wrong With You People?!
"Well he killed 11 with a semi-automatic assault rifle so it's the right's fault!"
"Oh yeah? Well she killed 13 with a Tesla so it's the tree-hugging left's fault!
Does the weapon used make a political statement? The color, age, weight, height, s*xual orientation of the victims?
Is defending mass murder by disregarding intent and equating it with domestic accidents or natural disasters insane?
....are we becoming desensitized?

The British election....a cautionary tale....
...for American liberals. Behind Boris' mandate victory lies a philosophy of belief in ourselves, beginning with the Founding Fathers (no girlies need apply), and extending to Ronaldo Magnus, and now our MAGA Brilliant President Trump. Anathema to the racist political pandering pols of all but the most justified and temporary welfare/dole handouts, it's a core life philosophy for folks who are really honest about such beliefs. Indeed, voters in the English former industrial north, now increasingly with cities resembling our own democrat ruled failed metropolises, were a big force in this election of a conservative---they had voted left for generations up until now. Oye como va, o mis campesinos. Rising crime, government over-regulation, PC, vanishing middle and lower class jobs, food pantries, homeless shelters, runaway inflation, decreasing adjusted incomes, porous borders making it all worse,-----anyone seen any of the same here, at least until the last 3 years? So now this British conservative mandate is also a mandate for a quick Brexit, finally honoring the will of the voters there. If you wonder why the distaste for capricious rule by unelected ueber lib bureaucrats in Brussels, and what the liberals here have always planned for the USA, try to spend a few leisurely afternoons sauntering about in Chicago, or LA. Just be sure to be carrying a pair of Glock nines, and extra clips.
The Genesis of a broken window
I remember once being sent along with the joiner* to replace a broken window pane at the local church hall. The churchwarden, a rather stern man, was already there waiting for us. He seemed very perplexed when we arrived, and appeared to have a great need to know what the broken window might mean. While we were stood there wondering what on Earth he was talking about, the joiner noticed a football on the floor, right in a corner of the room. When its presence was brought to the attention of the churchwarden it seemed to send him off into even more fanciful flights of fantasy. The broken window was clearly an act of God, and the manifestation of the ball, a message of some kind. We suggested to him what seemed to us the obvious chain of events that must have lead up to the ball ending up in the corner, but he just stood there slowly turning his head from side to side with an indulgent half smile on his face. ‘So,’ he said, when we had finished our speculations, ‘you believe that there just happened to be some kids on the grass outside who just happened to have a ball which one of them just happened to kick, which then just happened to smash through the window and somehow find its way, all on its own, into the corner?’ Well, when he put it like that, we were forced to admit that it did seem highly unlikely. 
* A joiner is a British tradesman who specialises in woodwork.

Super Heroes
Currently, on the boob tube they put on all the superman epics with Christopher Reeves and there are many other comic heroes such as Iron man, Capt America, Incredible hulk Batman etc.
We all know the basic theme of a mysterious mild manner type of person who turns into a super hero to save the day. Of course there is always romance and a damsel in distress.
There is always a bad guy to upset the day with a diabolical plan for his or her own gain.
Yet, looking at all the fantasy of such, it makes one ponder that we are always seeking a Hero or Heroine
to rescue the victim to vanquish the bad guy. Much like our military boys and girls, police force, fire rescue, and medics on the scene and those we deem protectors.
When it comes to all those services we sometimes take for granted and the people we call friends, how we can look upon them as our heroes to come to our aid or rescue.
There also comes a time to see the hero within the reflection pool we often tend to disregard because we sometimes do not see ourselves as heroes.
In the real world that seems to be getting worse by the hour I think at times we put too much dependence upon someone outside of ourselves to bail us out or to play the role of the hero in our lives. A type of role model to pattern by. When looking for a partner here or any social site we all secretly are looking for that hero to feed us something to believe in and give us courage to fight and love another day. When we see those who seemingly have a strong personality and confidence they are sometimes who we wish to become.
It would be such a better world if we all could be heroes to each other instead of seeing the sickness
and the ugliness that so many seem to convey with killing and shooting people down.
Change comes from within each of us and if we don't like what we see around us we must become the hero within that can make a change.
Its a hard task indeed. Nobody is asking to throw on a cape to leap tall buildings or turn big and green and tear up the town though at times in our anger we wish we could.
We often seek truth and justice from everyone but it starts looking within.
When we see our Dr's. or surgeons if they are successful in saving lives they are considered heroes and it takes humility to shine through.
Everyone who blogs or writes a poem here may be considered doing a heroic deed for a message to someone that may read at the right time that could be the one thought that could save a life from suicide.
Or to offer a new idea that could launch someone into a new career or lifestyle. Or to just cheer up someone who may be down on their luck.
In a world gone crazy today, we need many heroes and healers if we want to have a future.
No doubt, there may be a few here we could call a hero and a friend but we won't know that unless we tell them. We need to consider our values and ideals for not all the money in the world or material things is going to matter. We came into this world with nothing we are going to leave it with nothing. The question is how do we want to be remembered a villain or a hero? Like the song, "I need a hero"- Bonnie Tyler
