Maggie's Farm

There are surely many who have changed to the view that Kamala is an amazing person. But from things I hear from people, that's not it.

To me, Kamala is truly cringe. Embarassing. That's obvious to everybody but I do not vote against her (I am no Trumper, but he is my choice). But that doesn't matter much. Kamala voters are voting for the Dem/government machine, and against Orange Bad Man who many people feel is cringy in his own way.

Kamala voters know that presidents do not run the country, much less run the federal government. Yes, they do have a phone and a pen, and a bully pulpit. Yes, they do control the State Dept and the Justice Dept and the War Dept, but government is too big - it's its own animal. Obama and Trump both bitched about that, but it is supposed to be that way.

" Trump is not running against Kamala Harris. He is running against a
transnational machine with trillions of dollars in resources,
intelligence agencies, almost every media outlet in the world, and a
willingness to do some very dirty deeds to retain control over the
world's governments."

as well. What Trump and his team did at McDonald's was a master class
in trolling and it is obvious that Kamala and the Dems don't know Rule
One"

Thing is, Trump loves McDonald's. Kamala is a wine collector.

I've been off chicken since my nasty experience with Campylobacter a year ago. Not rational I know, but I do not want to go through that hospital adventure again.

The Science of Why Your Body Takes Longer to Bounce Back After 40

Job 38:1-7, (34-41)

38:1Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind:

38:2"Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?

38:3Gird up your loins like a man; I will question you, and you shall declare to me.

38:4"Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding.

38:5Who determined its measurements--surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it?

38:6On what were its bases sunk, or who laid its cornerstone

38:7when the morning stars sang together and all the heavenly beings shouted for joy?

38:34"Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, so that a flood of waters may cover you?

38:35Can you send forth lightnings, so that they may go and say to you, 'Here we are'?

38:36Who has put wisdom in the inward parts or given understanding to the mind?

38:37Who has the wisdom to number the clouds? Or who can tilt the waterskins of the heavens

38:38when the dust runs into a mass and the clods cling together?

38:39"Can you hunt the prey for the lion or satisfy the appetite of the young lions,

38:40when they crouch in their dens or lie in wait in their covert?

38:41Who provides for the raven its prey, when its young ones cry to God and wander about for lack of food?

Orange Man Bad: While exploring the "news," I learned that Trump is mentally-ill, unfit for office, demented, retarded, deplorable, overly-fatigued, a felon, fascistic, Hitler, a warmonger, misogynist, anti-semitic, and racist. Sounds pretty bad. Did I omit anything? Oh, I did: He is against reproductive rights.
