Now come on, I’m sure plenty still are.

You win.

About 40 years. We met for real when she was in 9th grade and I was in 10th grade. We started dating when she was 15 and I was 16. We got married 32 years ago.

Edit: Since it looks like we’re the oldest couple in the thread so far: first date was October 5, 1986.

I truly believe they thought they were helping.

At the end, we did. At this point my FIL passed away more than 10 years ago. MIL downsized and tossed most things. There’s really nothing left that we would need to deal with.

She still owns the most uncomfortable furniture. I was thinking that it might just be because of my size (6’4"), but my wife (5’1") agrees that it’s just terrible. There’s one chair my MIL uses and I wonder if that’s the only comfortable one.

Trying to avoid being rude, making them feel bad.

My in-laws used to do this.

I love them, but every time they bought something new, they’d give us the old one like it wasn’t something they were getting rid of. Easier to give it to us than throw it away.

The last time was a sofa and a love seat. We were stuck with the most uncomfortable furniture I’ve ever had in my life.

Remember to moan with pleasure during the strip search. Ask if they’re single. Touch yourself. Smile seductively. Have fun with it.

Words matter. Fascism is a very specific thing. Calling every authoritarian government fascism just dilutes the meaning of the word.

Learner.

You mention that you have a BA without providing further details as if a BA automatically means your degree is unemployable.

What was your major?

While US doesn’t have the great food

That’s just ignorant. There’s plenty of absolutely fantastic food in the U.S.

I have no idea why anyone would visit us now, but if you manage to get past the fascist scum, there are plenty of amazing places to eat.

They need to come up with enough people to deport to justify their lies about the border.

Why would they bother when Trump is going to sink the whole country?

Earlier someone posted that the protests aren’t going to be noticed by or cause any inconvenience to the oligarchs.

It isn’t about them noticing the protests, and it isn’t about the media talking about it.

At this point it’s a movement that has to grow until everyone knows even if they keep trying to bury their heads in the sand. It needs to show the billionaire owned media that they are powerless to suppress the truth.

The movement needs to keep growing until it can’t be denied. It needs to keep growing until they know they can not win.

We have a choice. Either we sit back and go into the gas chambers one at a time, or we show them that they are too outnumbered to succeed.

Maybe it likes the hose. Don’t kink shame!

It hides the problem

Seems to be working as intended

Well, if you’re far enough to the right, everything is to your left.

… Doubling every day…

Yeah, I disinterested, “Who? Ronald Dump? Is this someone who matters?” Wouldn’t be bad either.
