Think Iβm sarcastic? Watch me pretend to care.
His problem was not realizing that Camping World isn't a reliable vendor for submarine parts. He was on the sub, too.
I just hope hubs didn't spend too much on it.

@rbreich I was a child when the Mississippi Three were brutally murdered by KKK. The awful details were all over the news. I was young, but remember the horror.
Growing up during the Civil Rights Movement gave me a thirst for justice that has never abated. I will never forget these young men and the many other women and men who gave their lives to ensure the right to vote.
RIP Mickey, Andrew, and James.
Heros.
At this point I think the only solution is a fresh install.
59 years ago, white supremacists murdered Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman, & James Chaney. Of them, James Chaney most symbolized
that era and geographical space. Such crimes against Black people were commonplace, yet often went unnoticed by White America. Every Black family had a story of someone whoβd gone missing. But after Goodman & Schwerner, something had to be done. The racists were going after white people too.

I had a milestone birthday recently, which I was told deserves a frivolous gift. Today I'm going to receive a diamond, to be set in an earring. Nothing too ostentatious, a .25 carat, but D color, and IF, so a very nice not-too-ostentatious diamond. It'll replace my gold stud.

It could be worse - 9 year old could have said ennui, or lassitude.
I hadn't actually connected those dots, but yeah. WTAF?
I read a similar article on the CalMatters website and learned a couple of new things - the idea that homeless are coming here from other places to benefit from the weather and social policies is a myth. 90%+ are from right here in California. And most could have remained housed if they'd had $300-$500 extra a month.
We do have to do better.
Half of the homeless are over 50, and nearly half of those first became homeless after they turned 50". Our brutish and greedy society literally uses people up and throws them away in the name of "freedom". We have to do better. We need affordable housing and universal access to health care. #homelessness

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
