I don’t know. Some people who experience abuse and escape it become far worse abusers when they’re in position to do so.

Also in Texas because twenty years ago, my beloved wife HAD to have a house and there was no way in hell that was happening in California.

Today the wife is gone, the house is gone, the dogs are dead, and the daughter is grown and living in a far away civilized state that respects her right to exist.

And I’m still here. I pretty much don’t leave the house anymore except to go to work and get groceries. So very, very tired of everything here, but no viable way out in the foreseeable future.

I used to work at a place where several partners were members of this church. The open disdain directed toward me for not being a churchgoer and the ostracization the occurred were a significant factor of my decision to leave.

After I left, one of the partners harassed me for several years via phone calls, text messages, and hand written letters mailed to my home trying to get me to turn my heathen ways around.

One of those letters said something asking the lines that while I had chosen eternal damnation for myself, I owed an opportunity of salvation to my daughter, so I needed to bring her to this church.

I don’t remember how many years this continued, but it finally stopped.

The hell is the matter with these people?

I cast my first vote in 1990. It was the first and last time I ever voted for a Republican. Please forgive me. I was eighteen and raised under Reagan. I didn’t yet know better.

Anywho, I concur with your assessment. We’ve fallen so very far.

Now I wonder about elephants given that they have funerals and mourn their dead.

I tried via search and failed to prove it, but I’m nearly certain this was an old Facebook satire page.

I used power delete suite last year. Just checked and most of my profile is back. Assholes.

It’s fine. Scotus will just say that the DOJ doesn’t have authority to file lawsuits without express congressional legislation on each individual matter.

It’s election time. Better slow the mail down to stop THOSE people from defrauding our democracy! /s

Lunch?

Time?

The words you speak are strange and foreign to me.

There’s pretty much zero oversight for a supreme court justice, right? I’m kinda surprised he didn’t just lynch a few brown and/or gay people in his front yard because doing so would have equal consequence - none.
