So the kids are going to pay for their care now?
Prayers for you. At the shelter I used to volunteer at, there was a cat who had tail damage from having it caught in an engine. She had difficulty with defecation (the poop would fall out) but was otherwise in good shape. Eventually, she found a forever home with a loving girl and her mom.
I don't mean to sound patronizing but some of these sound exactly like Gen X when I was younger. The "I hate myself and want to die," and being open about mental health issues. When I was in college, I became depressed and two people gave me the names of their therapists. Also the constantly feeling stressed out.
We were also derided for having super short attention spans. It was blamed on MTV and video games at the time.
Congress has a lot of people who would qualify for the Special People's Club.
It's still at a theater in Boston that has first runs. I was surprised to see it still there on the online list.
Salon used "surge," too. That's their word for the day.
When I heard Trump skipped a debate in the 2016 election, I thought, "Gosh, I hope that doesn't hurt him in the polls."
I was a lot more naive then.
This reminds me of a comment in "Dave Barry's Guide to History," in which he writes that William Taft (the heaviest president in US history) ran on a "platform of reinforced concrete."
But according to some medical "experts" kids can determine their sex while in the womb. Shouldn't trans activists be protesting abortion if this is the case?
Still in first (and second) run theaters in MA.
Writing about twelve years olds having an orgy in a sewer is definitely not suspicious.
Where I live, it's in both first and second run theaters. Glad it's still around.
Meanwhile kids in other countries are doing physics and calculus that Americans won't take until high school.
Where I live, we do this thing called, "staying hydrated." If we're going to exercise outside, we make sure we drink enough fluids. It works, too.
I live in New England. For the past couple of weeks, I've been seeing "Heat advisory" on the online weather for this area. Today, it's about eighty. Hot, but not anything out of the ordinary. Yes, we have a "heat advisory" for this area.
I saw something random that the alphabet people are convinced that Barbie is really a lesbian because of some look she gives a woman in the trailer. I'm not making this up.
Oscar winning movies like "A Beautiful Mind," do things like downplay the non-political correctness of their main characters to make them more sympathetic. For instance, the real life John Nash was an anti-Semite which was omitted. He probably didn't also have a cute imaginary little girl as a friend.
But that's acceptable.
I saw a cashier in CVS today who is probably in her early twenties. She is still wearing one of those blue disposable face masks every time I go in. I'm pretty sure the store has dropped the requirement, so it's kind of sad.
The first thing I thought when I saw that guy was, "Why is Bill Hader in drag? Is that a SNL sketch?"
Good luck. I got a review of "2000 Mules," posted on Amazon and IDMB (yeah, they're owned by the same people). It stayed up for awhile but then got removed while reviews like, "I hated it," stayed.
He wasn't going to finish "Carrie," but his wife pulled it out of the trash and told him to complete it allegedly. You can tell a guy wrote it because there are detailed descriptions of many of the female characters' breasts.
In the nineties, Dinesh DeSouza wrote a book called, "An Illiberal Education" arguing against affirmative action. I wonder what he thinks of this decision.
If you told a cop your name was "Jack Smith," wouldn't he be at least a little skeptical?
There's a new memoir called "Levi's Unbuttoned," by a former CEO who left the company because it was too woke. She claims they tried to censor her during the pandemic because she spoke out against closing schools and the harm that lockdowns did children.
She even got in trouble because her husband was anti-lockdown and was outspoken about it on social media.
At least he didn't put the kid in a dress.
