And the loving machine makes me enter my PIN even though it was under 25€ which is the official limit for PIN free shopping. So as a thanks for trying to do my part I get to touch the grimey loving keypad.

I know it's nothing, but it was enough to really piss me off, guess I am more stressed by all this than I thought.

Lobby the feds to lower the age for full SS benefits to 60, get more at risk people out of the workforce, open up employment for younger folks.

I really don't have a lot to say, but I don't like counting down instead of up. Counting up days of stay-at-home (22) is ok, fine, I'm good with this. Counting down to "back to work day" (13) is worrying.

Yes, it would be, and yes they are. Cuomo and BDB suck, you're not going to find many defenders of milquetoast corrupt centrist liberals here.

They're also not the president, ignoring their duties as a leader and public servant to have slapfights with the media then cry about it on twitter after. Trump is the physical manifestation of failing upwards, and it's extremely unfortunate for us that a crisis this large came about when it did. Of course, you and that other idiot don't actually like Trump or think he's an effective leader, you just cruise on in to stir poo poo up and people can't help but respond because they think arguing on the internet gets them magical Anti-Trump Points (get enough and Trump magically disappears). Why you haven't been at the very least threadbanned for page after page of zero-content trolling is beyond me, maybe that's just the GBS way.

PATRIOT

-n.

One to whom the interests of a part seem superior to those of the whole. The dupe of statesmen and the tool of conquerors.


PATRIOTISM

-n.

Combustible rubbish ready to the torch of any one ambitious to illuminate his name.

In Dr. Johnson's famous dictionary patriotism is defined as the last resort of a scoundrel. With all due respect to an enlightened but inferior lexicographer I beg to submit that it is the first.

I'm going to visit my mom today. I will sit on the porch and chat with her through an open window about 12 ft. away. I will also put her unwrapped gifts near the door and wipe them down with 70% alcohol and move away before she opens to door to get her gifts (carton of smokes, rack of miller lite, brick of .22lr).
