Just food for thought, man. It can be hard to hear the things we say.

I abandoned this thread awhile ago, not because I was offended or "triggered" by any of the content, but solely because it makes me blush to read through your posts.

Being a full-blown idiot myself, I know one when I see one. It's just embarrassing to imagine myself babbling on the way you do, so I digress..

Oh

and gbp's s their mom's d's.

Yet here you are . I am not exactly sure what the last line means, but I am getting the feeling, you are just another small minded person who can't argue their point so they sink to name calling. Nothing new.

Come on dude. Wall street give just as much money to the DNC, as the GOP. Pretty sure a lot of Democrats(politicians) voted to bailout the banks, they also voted for quite a few of Bush and Obama's wars. I expect this shit from the partisan hacks, but I don't think you are that small minded. I hope I am not wrong , my friend.

What you are referring to is a RINO. Not a conservative.
Similar can be said of the DINO.
Between them, they make entirely too damn much headway
for the corporate brethren.

Amazing how quickly 'the media' brings up an alleged search history of any they wish to smear.

We were told things would improve for each generation.
To 'their' credit, one must admit, they did call it a dream.

I finally found it. The dumbest thread and post ever.

Congrats! LMFAO!

Not your fault really. It’s likely your steady education from Fox/trump have rendered you incapable of understanding the simplest of concepts.

Might be your recently acquired taste for Russian testicles as well.

You looney tune lefties are really fixated on penises and testicles.

Might be a little embarrassing for me to point out your giblet gargling, kind of obvious though.

Still got penis on the mind it seems, must have more to say after earlier today, seems like you are some kind of expert or something, wrote a whole paragraph on it, all about Trumps penis.

It’s all making sense now.

“Now make more posts about theory’s on penis size indicators. You seem to be overly interested in penis sizes. By the way, finger length is hand size, and, it has no bearing on penis size. Lol! The NFL measures handsize and, it’s thumb tip to little finger tip. The palm is the biggest factor and Trump has a bear paw for a hand”. Post #1693, Impeachment of Trump

Bragging about Trumps penis while gargling Russian giblets, you should be applying for work in the White House. Many high level positions are open for someone with your qualifications.

The grocery store no longer accepted drink containers back. As I looked into why,
I find that since the first of the year, China changed the standards for what they will accept into
their recycling stream.
Simply put, 90% of what we produce no longer qualifies, with the result being that what had been a source of revenue for our cities just became an additional expense.
It does of course signify something else altogether now doesn't it. Something our sizzling hot media seems to have no interest in covering at all.

Growing up between Guatemala and Chicago in a multicultural, multilingual family, constantly surrounded by different cultures and ethnicities, it makes me giggle inside to see so many people who are clearly so so very much more intelligent and analytical than myself, denying their own bias.

It exists within everybody.

not sure what city you are talking about but every single one in my state always lost money on recycling.

bulk recycled cardboard & plastic etc. is like a raw material - almost for free.

What Americans dump tends to be very "dirty" - e.g. throwing away a big cardboard box that a TV came in, and leaving the molded styrofoam in the box, for the recyclers to deal with it.

For a long time China paid people on their end to deal with it.

Of course, there may have been local subsidies. There was in my county where they coordinated it so that the recycling provided jobs.


I think it's partially something for the schools to deal with.

e.g. teaching papermaking.

Here's a big pile of raw materials, cardboard instead of trees.

If you want an "A" in this class, turn that cardboard into something useful, about the same way they did 150 years ago.


But the students were in their TRANS sensitivity class so they missed that shop class /sarc

Live where Einstein used to enjoy hanging out with the likes of Upton Sinclair.

If history is not neat, I am not sure what would be .
Nice Marvin Gaye quote, will stick some his music on if the gods of fiber can spare the bandwidth.

When the janitor showed up to clean, he brought his kid with him, and they made pinatas Life is what we make out of it.

recycling is not supposed to be profitable, it is supposed to help conserve raw materials & help preserve what little we have left not destroyed by industry.

In Europe all soda and drinks come in reusable glass bottles (like we used to have) in reusable heavy plastic cases. Everything gets recycled and towns have compost centers.
