Bottom line: They want more money and for you to have less.

Yes, there is a health crisis associated with climate change, but it's mental health that seems to be critical.


Had Zambia had better sanitation or water treatment there is a chance that the Cholera epidemic could have been avoided. It takes energy to build the infrastructure to have that, and reliable energy to run it.
Unicorn farts may produce showers of skittles, but they have really low BTU output.

NEW: Statement by George Washington University President Ellen Granberg on the encampment:  “What is currently happening at GW is not a peaceful protest protected by the First Amendment or our university’s policies. The demonstration, like many around the country, has grown into what can only be classified as an illegal and potentially dangerous occupation of GW property. ...  It is clear that this is no longer a GW student demonstration. It has been co-opted by individuals who are largely unaffiliated with our community. ...  As a university, we are not equipped to single-handedly manage an unprecedented situation such as this.”

It’s insane that the University is begging for help with clear criminal behavior, but @MayorBowser and the police are refusing to do anything. This is only an issue in a few cities run by far-left progressives who think the laws do not apply to mobs they consider allies.

It's interesting how different our approaches are regarding when we consider ourselves adults. Some make the assessment based on when they took on adult responsibility. Others when they reassessed life after a tragedy. I was thinking along the lines of when you stop being interested in doing fun or silly things like you did as a kid. Like climbing trees. Or playing games. Or having a pillow fight.

I had to grow up earlier than I wanted to because I had to take care of my dying husband in our early 20s. Many years before hospice became a thing. He finally succumbed to cancer at 23. I've taken care of 3 dying family members over the years. As y'all know, it's physically and emotionally grueling, so I always dreamed of fun ways to counterbalance that responsibility. If I had a decent climbing tree, I'd go out and climb it right now. But not before I queued up 911 on my cell. The old gray mare....

To lose a husband at such a young age would be extremely difficult and traumatic and certainly would make you grow up very quickly.  So sorry to hear of that.

As for climbing a tree -- that is one thing that I never was good at....and I don't see myself getting any better at this age

BTW @AllThatJazzZ  I am enjoying the Fan Mail Fridays!

I am generally opposed to new laws since we have more than we need.

BUT,

Anyone removing the USA flag in the USA and replacing it with a flag of terrorist people should face serious criminal charges and prison time from my view.   And if that person is here as a foreigner, they should be deported within 24 hours.  I am tired of this disgusting behavior in regard to our flag in the USA.

Every student actively demonstrating on behalf of Hamas should be expelled, and every person not a student should be indicted for felonious something.  Millions of dollars in damages on a college campus is NOT peaceful demonstration!!!

Elected officials need to get off their posterior and do their damn jobs.  All these people should be indicted and forced to pay for the damages.  And we are not so desperate for college grads as to keep these sh*t turds in school.  Expel every last one with a hefty bill for damages.

 

What you said!!!
