I’d question what’s “unsafe”, but this was bipartisan and unanimous. Hopefully the governor gets overruled by the legislature.

He’s saying the call to close a beach should be local, not at the state level. Of course the locals will never close a beach. Anyone seen Jaws?

OTOH, I’m not aware of anywhere here in NW Florida that suffers pollution. Red tide maybe should call for a shutdown, and I believe it occasionally does.

And I have to agree. Anyone choking our economic lifeline isn’t getting back in office to do it again. Seems an easy call when you’re not fucking with 10’s of thousands of livelihoods.

No idea what the answer is, but a higher authority (the state) should make the call.

Sears catalog and corn cobs. No lie.

LOL my god, I was gonna say. OP apparently lacks a rudimentary immune system as well. Or, is shoving that tp way, way too deep. And leaving it there.

My wife got me to install a bidet. Can’t remember to try it. Been 8-months, still forget.

“Don’t be a Sucker”

Dry them in the sun, reduces wear a great deal. Also nukes fungi.

You’re thinking of the Deep South. Baptists aren’t a big thing in OK, in fact I always thought they were viewed as slightly weird.

somebody would have murdered the worst offenders gleefully

We have food, so much food that the majority of people are obese. We have entertainment, cheap. Bread and circuses like never before.

Then I ask this: School shootings simply never happened when I was a kid in the 70’s and 80’s. We had far less regulation*. Any asshole could buy a gun, get it delivered to their doorstep, and they were cheap. Yes, even AR-15s.

This shit all started with Columbine. Want to suicide and go out the most horrific way possible? Shoot up a school!

So no, it’s not the guns. Nothing has really changed on that front. So what happened?

* One exception: Conceal carry laws were nothing like today, far more restrictive. I’m leaving that out because criminals and mass murderers hardly give a shit about carrying illegally. Would that stop you if you were intent on murder? Also, at the same time, the laws around transporting guns generally became more restrictive.

To opponents it’s not a medical diagnosis, it’s a choice. Same for anything other than cis people, except the notion of people transitioning is far, far worse.

They believe that a person chooses to be gay, but at least that choice is reversible, fixable. If it’s a choice, it’s not a choice a child can make. And teens are certainly impressionable.

Once you truly internalize where conservatives are coming from, it pretty much explains all these views. Almost forgot, we gotta throw in the child molester thing. What a win that propaganda turned out to be.

We can talk all night about how stupid these views are. Turned a friend around years ago by simply asking, “If it’s a choice we all have, when did you make yours? Because Wonder Woman comics got me a hardon when I was 5.”

I didn’t truly understand how much energy incandescent were burning. Grew up with nothing but those.

One night my AC crapped out in my tiny apartment so I killed the lights except one in a far corner. The air was so still I could reach my hand out and sense the heat from a 60W bulb.

One of those saved my ass on a solo, overnight kayaking trip. I mostly brought beer, ice and food in my tow-behind cooler because I had a Life Straw.

The trip was hell, most difficult thing I’ve ever done, wasn’t sure I’d make it out. Was good on water until the next day when I finally broke out onto the main creek.

Cut the top off a can and sucked down 7 refills of creek water. Tasted exactly like warm, flat, tap water.

Part of it is narcissism. I see the word thrown a lot, to mean a lot of things. A major component is unable to face being wrong. If it comes out his mouth, he believes it to be true, right down to his roots.

I was 40 or so until I realized my mother had never once in life said she was sorry or admitted fault. One time my ex and I nailed her to the wall with her own words. You could see the cognitive dissonance boiling away. And compared to her, Trump has weapons grade NPD.

the EPA hadn’t killed them with poorly written standards

Thank you! I see so many people blaming the manufacturers for greed. No, the EPA killed the small truck. Perfect example of well-meaning laws paving the road to hell.

And so is every Coke bottle with 5 times the plastic. And so is every store-bought coffee. Yet… silence. 🦗🦗🦗

What about bottles? Far more energy requires to melt and pour glass. No one says a word about single use.

Never found a K-cup on the beach or trail, but I pack plastic bags to haul trash and sometimes load 2 or 3.

Yes, it’s a waste, but the whole thing was blown way the hell out of proportion.

I hike, kayak, canoe, whatever, all over the place. Every plastic bottle I pick up contains, what, 5 times the plastic? I pick up a LOT. And nobody thinks twice or raises a fuss.

We use a Keurig, but either with plastic refill cups or paper bags my wife brings home from the hotel.

I loathe that woman, but I watched the video when it came out. Nothing but some teenage tickling going on. Inappropriate? You fuckin’ a it was for a Congresswoman. But it wasn’t really a thing otherwise. And it was in the dark, only caught on infrared.

Did anyone expect upright, moral, Victorian behavior from this woman?!

Lemmy: She was jacking him off while he raw dogged her!

Got my kids back after 4 years of custody battle. They eat white rice, ramen noodles, white bread, potatoes and Kool-Aid popsicles. Anything else is far too flavorful.

What kinda loser do you have to be to not feed little kids?!

Trump made a tasteless, racist joke.

Liberals: OMFG! I can’t believe this shit!

FFS, are we not used to this by now? This is nothing. Just throw it in the bucket with the rest of his shit.
