I have lived outside that miserable shithole my whole life in Maryland (peas in a pod these days). Missing the great food is different than missing living in the place with the great food.
There is a legit word for this that escapes me at the moment. Not trying to be a we Todd - there is a real word that wraps that whole idea up. As one example of where that word applies: all the mining for the lithium ion batteries (i think it is for Cobalt) causes great long term environmental damage to the area stripped.
Miss living in DC - what the???? I would miss living in DC like I would miss my daily root canal!
She also rots as the good people leave her.
Don't abondon ship! It is much like the United States, no? Should we just jump ship because so many elected/unelected rule over us rather than govern? Just know that you are not alone! Try a Canon Latin mass if you haven't already. They have grown in popularity over the last year. I had never even been to one before last fall!
If you haven't already: seek out Father Altman, Taylor Marshal, US Grace Force, to name a few. They have a wonderful message and don't beat around the bush - they go at it directly with a chainsaw!
May God keep you in his protection forever!
Hell, back in the 80's my elementary school STILL had an air raid siren AND tested it now and again. That thing was LOOOOUUUUUUUD! Not in tornado alley BTW - definitely part of the cold war toolset.
Don't be afraid to reach out to other like minded people. Overcome the weirdness to connect! We are all huwoman and need to connect with birds of a red, white and blue feather!
Yesterday I left a note on a patriot couple's door with my address and phone number and an offer to come to D.C. tomorrow. I know they're supportive because I have watched their TRUMP sign festooned yard fluctuate as people steal them and and they replace them. About four hours later I got a phone call and we talked for probably an hour. She declined the offer but thanked me for going on her behalf. Now she knows that we're there for them and they are there for us.
These are the type of people I want to surround myself with but they aren't always going to fall in your lap. Legwork is required. Good luck!
I see a better use of the Paki gender studies funds right there in that picture.
Not a vet but ready to be one under this leader.
Edit: My thankfulness to veterans who, with true patriotic sacrifice served the greatest nation does not happen on a few days per year! Thank you ALWAYS.
There are currently 52+x#@ different genders. They can't even keep their own fake ass story straight!!!
It is mis-interpreted when the oppressed are consumed with a moral dichotomy of killing another human that is, effectively, the oppressor (even if "I'm doing muh job"). This conundrum is applicable from the simplest home defense situation all the way up to the political shitshow we now find ourselves in. As I grow in my God given right to self defense and protection I also consider what it is I may do to another life no matter how vile the human is. If it wasn't so hard for good people to bad things when necessary, then I bet - ironically, shit would be a lot saner than it is.
Dirty Harry does NOT approve and was never just "doing muh job."
We have a real crisis of mentally "aloof" people in this country that was set forth by the destruction of institutionalized mental care. There, I said it. Deserves its own entire thread because it is an important part of the way forward for restoring the Republic.
Depravity: we all have it to a greater or lesser degree.
Imposition of one's own depravity on the norms established by the law of nature over eons is counter to the continued survival of civilization.
Embrace the natural law that we are all ruled with. Natural law extends to physical violence for the sake of freedom and is clearly recognized by our Constitution.
THIS^^^ Additionally, were there more deaths overall caused by NEGLECT OF CARE of ALL other medical conditions and issues???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
ALSO, what a convenient way of covering the tracks of care neglect to blanket rule Covid COD for everything!
My goto line in the grocery store is to comment about how something or another "smells like......heeeeey! Wait a minute! If I can smell stuff through my mask, then what else is getting through it?!"
<<sigh>> I wonder if it actually gets the gears turning in any of the zomby's heads.
"Made in China" boils my blood even more because people I know aren't retarded when it comes to what the fuck is happening to the US but don't give a shit to do the tiniest little sacrifice to make a difference - avoiding "Made in China" included.
At this point I and my children have a laugh when we see people in their cars, all alone with the mask on. I am at the point where I am ready to begin loudly laughing and jeering at people wearing masks all alone, outside, in their cars, etc.
Some may not perceive it to be a compassionate thing to do but not thinking the entire situation through, especially at this point, is even more uncompassionate in my opinion. Actually putting one through a situation where they are the farce may actually burst their lacking-self-awareness-bubble.
Something strikes me about this general realization that police are not recognizing their role in defending God given freedoms recognized in the Constitution. As the police are now armed to the teeth military style, they have strayed from their role as officers of the peace.
As a well armed citizenry is a polite citizenry, conversely: an overly armed police force is tyranny waiting to happen. Thankfully, for this specific moment in time, the Second Amendment explicitly acknowledges our right to fight with equal or greater measure those who deign to strip us of our humanity.
I sincerely vow to take action so that as the battles to regain our freedoms continue, the Second Amendment is unchained from States' illegal gun rules.
President elect, is that you? ;-)
Are you workers, former workers and shoppers of Walmart the absolutely wierd ass looking ones that I would see there whenever I went???? (Myself notwithstanding!)
Wear a mask to carry your shallow outward sign of how caring you are. Yet another base human desire for something for nothing. Caring without acting out any real kind of care for another.
The quick feel good fix.
Like drugs to quickly fix (bandaid) problems. As an example: ADHD & ritalin when my common sense gland tells me kids just need to get off their ass and get fresh air, exercise and free imagination time away from the God forsaken screen.
Certainly, there are exceptions to every rule but the exception now in everything is conversely applied where the healthy is the exception rather than the rule.
