Galrads, unless you were calling me a fat Bond villain the other day, you were making a graphic and very crude reference that you would probably be ashamed for your pastor to see. You were trying to humiliate me. You failed. I'm calling you out now because you're lying and trying to cover it up.
I ignored your previous trolling attempts too.
A few weeks ago, you asked me if I could play a particular (large) piano chord. Odd question.
Then I realized you wanted me to know that you had looked closely at my profile pictures, and made note of the sheet music on my piano. You spotted Piano Compositions for Small Hands and went to some trouble to find a difficult chord and ask me about it.
That is very weird. If you're trying to intimidate me or creep me out, don't waste your time. I'm older and I have more insurance everything.
I hope you see the irony of the accusations of hate that you make against others. Here it's islanders, which you knew would stir the pot. Previously you've posted calling people haters because they don't share your end times prophecy fantasies involving Israel.
I won't be drawn into your endless efforts to instigate discord, but if you step out of bounds as you did a few days ago, I'll report you every time.
We saw the inane behavior, mangled slurred language, and inexcusable suggestions about consuming disinfects to treat covid while he was in office. We saw his total abdication in dealing with the pandemic at all, which is the main thing that turned military voters against him. Trump liked bragging about being the CiC, but when it came down to brass tacks, he turned tail. Total failure of command.
We had to endure the horror, but we survived--no thanks to the right-wing nuts who moved heaven and earth to subvert the Constitution and deny the will of the voters.
Even Hannity was shocked as Trump rambled that the Taliban had been fighting for a thousand years (it was founded in 1994) and that COVID-19 was gone when he left office.
He may be having a flare of his dementia symptoms as he is obviously gobsmacked by Biden's progress with infrastructure, which is piling on further proof of the trust fund huckster's lack of mastery of the "art of the deal."
The physical signs are undeniable too. When Biden drank a glass of water with one hand like a normal person, the crowd roared with humorous approval.
His betrayal of his oath of office and his responsibilities as president are already established in history as part of his legacy as our worst president.
I don't want to hear any more of his tragic mush-brained garbage, but on the other hand, maybe he's doing everyone a favor, as reportedly some of his diehard fans are abandoning him.
I'm seeing someone now. He's the second man I've had a face-to-face date with. The first fellow sadly is in a nursing home fighting long covid.
My present involvement is with a man who lives only 25 miles from me, and we have volunteered at the same Vets Hub in the past. But I didn't meet him until I came here.
I had a date before the pandemic. Sadly he is in a convalescent center with neurological symptoms caused by "long covid."
For a few months I've DM'd and had video convos with an almost-local man I met here, and we've been on two actual l dinner dates. A friendship is forming. Maybe more will develop, maybe not. I'm enjoying the journey.
Strangely enough, we have used the same Veterans Hub in the past, but without meeting one another. Then we encounter each other on this little site. Kismet?
The other guy will never scam his way into a position of power again. He'll be lucky if he avoids jail time.
You suffer from confirmation bias. Instead of gleaning information from a variety of sources, you stick to the narrowest right wing propaganda from disreputable sources, to protect the fantasies that comfort you.
Americans overall are happy with Biden. You would know this if you paid attention to his approval ratings and the things he's accomplishing for the nation.
For epirb and others who are still being gaslighted, here's factual reporting on the Arizona fiasco:
The Republican-dominated Maricopa County Board of Supervisors said in a letter Monday that the Arizona state Senate's GOP-led audit of its 2020 presidential election results should be called off.
Why it matters: The letter underscores divisions in the GOP between loyalists of former President Trump and those denouncing baseless election claims, which saw Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) ousted last Wednesday as the third-highest ranking House Republican after speaking out on the matter.
The county officials said in the letter that the audit had left Arizona "a laughingstock." "Worse, this 'audit' is encouraging our citizens to distrust elections, which weakens our democratic republic." The big picture: The Florida-based Cyber Ninjas, whose chief has supported unfounded voter fraud claims, is recounting ballots from the election.
Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Chairman Jack Sellers (R) said at a public meeting Monday he would not be responding to "any more requests from this sham process," per the Washington Post. Trump said Saturday, without evidence, that the "entire Database of Maricopa County" had been deleted, prompting county recorder Stephen Richer to tweet that the claim was "unhinged," adding: "We can't indulge these insane lies any longer."
Per WashPost, Richer told the meeting: "Every file the Senate has asked for is there. No files from the 2020 election have been deleted."
Democracy, literally, rule by the people. The term is derived from the Greek demokratia, which was coined from demos (“people”) and kratos (“rule”) in the middle of the 5th century BCE to denote the political systems then existing in some Greek city-states, notably Athens.
Yes, we should and we do read and study fairytales. You would throw out the baby with the bathwater.
Fairy tales are literature, spanning the genres of foklore and fantasy.
A knee-jerk reaction is common among people who don't look deeper than the surface of literature. It can be a problem in schools. You remind me of a parent who objected to my teaching Romeo and Juliet as part of the Honors English curriculum. She said it romanticized teen suicide, and saw no value in the great drama.
Do a bit of research on the significance of fairy tales. If you really want to dig, read what Carl Jung and Bruno Bettelheim have written on the topic.
I'm fully vaccinated now against the current original virus. No side effects.
I will still mask and observe precautions as long as recommended.
If future variants should become a widespread issue, I'm curious if there will be vaccines for them too. If so, I'll get my jabs.
For those people mentioned by the OP who are "against any type of vaccinations," I would remind them of polio, smallpox and other scourges from which we were effectively protected by vaccines.
On schedule for my second jab later this week, and it will be a relief, with reservations about issues like the variants.
I'll be watching the unfolding of the J&J vaccinations, envying those people who don't have to feel in suspense waiting for a second appointment which could be derailed by anything from extreme weather to logistical errors.
I'm curious about further coronavirus vaccinations. How many variants will there be? Will coronavirus join the list of jabs we need every fall?
Interesting that Donald and Melania Trump got their vaccines in January, so they knew what Trump denied--that having the illness does not confer immunity.
We can't be too careful. It's in our own best interest to continue following the advice of Dr. Fauci.

Rotsa ruck controlling the narrative. Maybe y'all should just take your play-pretties and go home.
