It’s more rural v. urban than anything else.

The point could be better made saying that Academia is sheltered from reality because education is reality.

I understand what the supposed intent is but it attempts to be pithy when in fact it is an over generalization. Education is the backbone of middle class society. The post WWII expansion of the middle class was due to the GI Bill and education. Education so required for most professional vocations.

That’s an ignorant quote.

I have bought from Mercari but not sold. I’ll have to try that.

The DEA guy was pulled because nutcase MAGAT asshats didn’t like that he enforced covid protocols.

I have worked with alcoholics for many years. It takes then recognizing that there is a problem first. That’s why interventions take place.

eBay is terrible. Their fees are insane. I sold something for $250 and walked away with $198.

No. Alcoholics who admit they have a problem know it is a problem. Many do not.

That’s the stupid part, the economy is hitting on all cylinders. Most Americans don’t care that inflation so down and the economy is growing, they care that eggs cost more. Eggs aren’t going down in price. Trump can’t make that happen.

But, but, the Orange Messiah only picks the best people. 🙄 I am truly worried about the next four years.

I had forgotten that Trump only picks the best people. Of course y best people he means asshats who resign from Congress so their sex scandal investigation ends and is humiliated into dropping out of an AG run. 😂🙄

Except 69% of white woman voted for Trump too. Racism and misogyny is what won the election for Trump.

I left them when they have an over sized voice to Trump in 2015 and 2016.
