The President continues to lie.

citronella comments on Jan 4, 2019:

You are correct. He doesn't know how tariffs work. He thinks the foreign government or country pays them, which of course they do not. But his base doesn't understand that, either, so he can bs them some more. China's response to his application of tariffs was to slap tariffs on U.S. goods, ...

And China has purchased no soybeans at all from the U.S., once their largest foreign source. Those losses won't come back as China boosts its crop production and so does Brazil.

Garbage, feces take toll on National Parks amid shutdown

Beowulfsfriend comments on Jan 3, 2019:

Most of the deep woods campers are pretty good about clean up. But, likewise, I've noticed the majority of campers who stay closer to civilization are slobs and act like the places are hotels with limited room service.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jan 3, 2019:

@BufftonBeotch our school i tauggt in used to take middle schoolers "camping" at an outdoor adventure retreat with fairly primitive facilities. One year the female gym teacher went as a chaperone. She wanted to know where the shower was and where she could plug in her hair dryer.

The President just gave a history lesson, praising the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan.

powder comments on Jan 3, 2019:

Think Trump mentioned Afghanistan in the context of causing the collapse of the USSR. Afghanistan is known as the graveyard of empires. One point, the USSR were invited into Afghanistan by the legit govt to help fight an Islamic insurgency, sponsored by the US. It does make you cry when you see ...

I could make a case that not all were rapists and murderers. Hamilton showed great ethical intentions for the nation, others, like Franklin, that may have owned slaves not only regretted it but apologized and freed them. Jefferson I believe did not have the strength of his own "beliefs". None, even ...

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jan 3, 2019:

Franklin didn't own slaves. Hamilton moved from the Caribbean.

Garbage, feces take toll on National Parks amid shutdown

RiverRick comments on Jan 3, 2019:

Heck... Trump will probably end up leasing the parks out to the oil and gas companies anyway. Garbage and feces will be the last of your worries then! I cannot believe they left the parks open!

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jan 3, 2019:

He has already reduced some federal land for just that purpose.

I like Jimmy Carter. He is a good person. I am sure if he met an agnostic or an atheist he would be polite and cordial to them.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jan 3, 2019:

Without a doubt. He is old school evangelical, like the liberals who helped pull the US out of the great depression. Remind the asswipes now about the past church and they gag on the thoughts of helping the poor for real or standing up for real justice. The churches are flooded with hypocrites today. There are times I almost wish xtianity was real so when in hell I could laugh at how full the place was with the shocked asses. Ain't meant to be.

I hope this little bitch can't even get a job at Wal-mart when the dust settles.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jan 2, 2019:

No. She would have more opportunities to do that act as an angry bitch who Wal-Mart would hire as a pharmacy assistant with her education and their cheap asses. McDonald's where the most damage she could do would be add germs to the ammonia cleaned burgers.

If you had the power to do so would you eliminate zoos?

Deveno comments on Jan 1, 2019:

If money was no object, I'd turn them into wildlife sanctuaries with no humans allowed.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jan 1, 2019:

There would definitely be a need for sanctuaries as too many animals facing extinction are only kept from it by animals in zoos and sanctuaries.

Some of you may remember the post I made a couple days ago about my Dad's psycho wife.

RavenCT comments on Dec 31, 2018:

That's some unwanted stress right there. And I'd make it really clear to everyone you give your address to (when you do move) that they are* not *to pass it on to *anyone* without your ok. (And be plain about that if you have to).

Beowulfsfriend replies on Jan 1, 2019:

@RavenCT before a restraining order, in most cases, you should send a cease and desist, in most cases. As a cease and desist holds no full legal power, it is a precursor to a restraining order, you can write one yourself and save 250 $ in lawyer fees. Then, if that doesn't work get a legal restraining order (some places, if violence is not threatened want a c and d first). Do a CC at the letter's end of all the people or groups you send it to: the person, the POLICE (Who will log it in. - I dropped mine off), lawyer, if applicable, etc.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Dec 28, 2018:

@thinktwice I worked with Families United, boys in Lancaster. They have a very large female facility up North. Our kids were not dangerous, miner offenders and between the ages of 14 and 21. Actually, to clarify, not all were offenders, as some were put in court ordered custody because of family situations. We seldom had someone under 16, for the males. We had one boy placed there due to family. He did everything required: school, a job (or activities). He finished high school and 3 years of college (on the state's dime). Anyway, the idea was that at those ages the brain could begin to make better choices. If they didn't "choose wisely" they faced negative consequences. It mostly worked well. We had our moments. The idea of the therapy puts the onerous on the person and not the situation.

@Amisja that is what she earned. Means no more. I don't / didn't hand out grades except as earned. Hard to flunk me and hard to get an A, high standards. Lots of B and C grades - bell curve guru. Maybe this will help mollify - Nurses, all sexes, were my best students being driven as high achievers. They always got their rough drafts in early for me to check - My lectures on plagiarism scared them and unfortunately too many students don't know proper citation procedures.

@Amisja it is my wry humour and inability to keep my mouth closed. I really don't mean it; but I like bad jokes - just ask my one college class when I made an insulting joke about Hooters only to find out one of my students worked there.

Read William Glasser and Reality Therapy. He is dead now. I met the man in an all day seminar, ling ago. My last, full time, gig, used reality therapy which relies on choice and making a decision. Basically, everyone makes choices; it is up to the individual what choice is made; reality therapy instructs the subject, so to speak, (in my case adjudicated youth) to make the best decision.
