    Joining a Pearl Jam message board in 2024 specifically to argue about politics is certainly a choice.
    $35 a year to own libz is a negligible amount, despite the exorbitantly high cost of eggs in 2024. 
    If you are referring to me, which of course you are, I vote liberal.  I just don't act like the ones around here.  Its pretty sad around here, would love to see my fellow Americans stop focusing their energy and every waking second of each day consumed with Donald Trump.  You all torture yourselves its beyond ridiculous.  And its annoying as shit to be associated with how you all act.  I'm embarrassed to say I vote with you all.  

    I was just in the market in Bridgewater, MA eggs are $2.99.  Would anyone like me to mail you some?  Be well my fellow Americans.

    Passive aggressives, baters, trolls, it's all the same to me, and I'm way happier ignoring them and sticking to adult conversations.   Join me, and let's move forward.

    He governs like a bull in a china shop. Just one disaster after another with no regard for truth or accuracy. Whatever stupid thing he says gets backed up by his cult members.

    I realize that 90% of the shit he says will never happen it's just so exhausting to have to listen to it. The media doesn't have a choice but to report it but it's like he needs to be on a four hour delay or something.

    That's just it, you don't have to listen to it, Gern Blansten.  You really don't, that's is the simple point I am trying to hammer home around here.  You all don't have to put yourselves through the misery.  Be well, my fellow American.

    Blackmail, pure and simple.  Proving yet again how clueless the Felon is.  He has no idea how the complex water system in California works. 
    From the Fresno Bee:
    There is no more complex subject than California water, thanks to years of legal wrangling for a resource that is too limited to meet all the demands. So President Trump got tripped up recently when discussing the Los Angeles-area wildfires. He tried to make it seem simple when he said Gov. Newsom had wrongly kept water from flowing to Southern California in order to protect an obscure little fish. The firefighters did not have enough water to battle the flames, Trump said. Not so fast, Mr. President. Southern California had all the supply it needed from water projects; the hoses ran dry because there was too much demand in real time. Besides, SoCal doesn’t rely only on water from up north. It gets major shares from the Colorado River and the Eastern Sierra, facts any president should know. And, when the fires broke out, Southern California’s main reservoirs were full. Trump probably does know all that, and he just wanted to criticize Newsom and California’s Democratic leaders. In fact, one of the executive orders Trump signed upon taking office for the second time has the unwieldy title of “Putting people over fish: Stopping radical environmentalism to provide water to Southern California.”

    And his plan to deport migrant farm workers?  We think food prices are high now?  We may be finding ourselves tightening our belts big time.  (And that means everyone.)  From the SF Gate:

    Mass deportations could wreak havoc on California’s $50 billion-plus agriculture industry, the largest in the country. The governor’s office says 50% of farmworkers in the state are undocumented; other sources suggest up to 75% may be.

    “The entire industrial farming system is dependent on the labor of undocumented farmworkers,” says Ann Lopez, the president of the Center for Farmworker Families, a Santa Cruz County organization that works to improve the financial stability and overall well-being of farmworkers.

    Lopez is fearful of the economic impacts as well. “If we start importing food, an apple will cost $10,” she says.

    And her concern is first and foremost with the farmworkers themselves. 

    “I can’t believe the cruelty and the stupidity,” Lopez says. “It’s just purely inhumane. The parents go to work and leave their kids at home, then they get deported and the kids are alone with no parents.”

    I understand wanting to detach from it, but doing so doesn’t give you elevated status. Your judgment is suggesting you’ve decided what’s an acceptable amount of time to pay attention to current events and then what’s an acceptable response when someone does.

    Yeah I don't have the ability to turn my hearing on and off when the sounds being made relate to the president of our country. 

    More importantly, YOU don't have to post these word salads that make everyone hate you.
