Way back when I used to have a folder just for sites like- and including- flopping aces. I think I had over 50 such political sites in there. I see they have changed their format substantially from way back then….
I’m trying to avoid reading at more than, say, a dozen sites *lol* I really need to focus on my writing, rather than politics.
Walked into Wal-Mart BARE FACED today and nobody said boo about it. Oh there’s still a sign up telling everybody to wear a mask but the folks at the door didn’t say anything when I walked in.
In other news: when I came out of the Dr’s office (prior to going to W mart) there was a truck parked in the parking lot advertising – get this – “Liquid Death” thirst quencher (Murder your thirst!). It’s just “spring water”. It comes in “still” and sparkling varieties and a 12 pack of 16oz cans will set you back TWENTY BUCKS on Amazon! What was it P T Barnum said about suckers? Oh, yeah, there’s one born every minute. (He also said New York was the best place to catch suckers although I suspect the internet has overtaken the “Big Apple” for that activity.)
Where we live currently, you can get a water cube (200 gallons, I think) filled for – IF I recall correctly – $2, straight out of the ground. We got 2 cisterns- 2000 gallons- filled for $90. Which I guess means the biggest share of the expense was the delivery to our home.
One of my favorite news and analysis websites:

Might be because commenting is so easy. Bunch of good people.

Same here, I tend to avoid the internet entirely for days at a time.
Never knew of “Flopping Aces” before. Thanks for the link, Catman.

Would you use a product marketed under the brand name “liquid death”? I sure as hell wouldn’t!
