How is the Danube drying up? The Danube River is approximately 1,770 miles (2,850 kilometers) long. The second-longest river in Europe after the Volga!! It flows through 10 countries from its source in Germany to its mouth at the Black Sea. #climatechange www.cbsnews.com/news/danube-...

NYCers are getting off easy. If you don't move your car in LA, you aren't stickered and ticketed, you are ticketed and TOWED. It costs about $500 to get your car out of the tow yard. It's also a pain to get to the tow yards since you have to call around to find your dang car. I only failed ONCE.

Oh yes, I have so many question about the insulation. The road noise and heat build-up are DEADLY right now and I'm just using it to haul stuff around. Are you recommending spray foam? I'm 70% confident that I can do that with my son. It's super messy but effective. 👍🎯 This is foundational.
How exactly can a billionaire Republican also be a philanthropist? Billionares should NOT have PACs. But hey, glad he's not giving money to help Republicans get elected. EAT THE RICH.
Ronald Lauder, a Billionaire G.O.P. Backer, Closes His Wallet

Engage with your community. Get the Dem establishment cleaned up. People first.
You're living in an actual crisis and all-out class warfare. There's a battle within the Democratic Party that isn't just performance but a struggle for power. The time for spectator politics is over if you want things to actually get better. It's past time to get serious about this.
Imagine this. Vote for public servants, not politicians.

There’s an oriole drinking from the hummingbird feeder. I had no idea they liked sugar water! Sorry for the terrible pictures.
I stayed for ~30 years. I realized I didn't want to end up in jail. Split the money in half, packed my stuff, furniture I had before getting married, rented a uhaul, and drove around until I had an apartment. Turned off all the utilities since they were in my name. January 2020 before lockdown. 😱
During this heatwave, I'm watching Firefly and doing online chores. S1 is almost over, so what should I watch next? I think Nautilus might be good anti-colonizing/capitalist pirate Nemo played by hottie, Shazad Latif (Spooks, Ash Tyler on ST: Discovery). Maybe Atomic? Spooks again? Much treachery.
I'll let you know how this goes. My mom currently pays $400 for supplemental health and prescription insurance. She receives $879/month for her social security. They want old people and folks with chronic health management needs (e.g. diabetes) to die.
