Last Notes npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. This has depressed me for years. Years. I keep hoping physics will discover something new that restores the more Hindu concept of a universe that expands, contracts, and is reborn, over and over, instead of this dissolution into unmitigated loneliness. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. You're both so beautiful! Congratulations. A good marriage is a wonderful gift (and it just gets better and better, doesn't it?) npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I hope you and Summer can still find him some beautiful wildflowers. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. SHE HAS A STICK! MOM! DID YOU NOTICE THAT SHE HAS A STICK?!?! #stick npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. (Removes lawyer hat) I'm pretty sure the Constitution's speech and debate clause protects congresspeople from being held liable for murdering witnesses during congressional hearings. (Puts lawyer hat back on, walks away as if no one said anything.) npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. What size fish with water like that support? (I love learning.) npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. You have a little 3-wt or something? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Yeah, reported and blocked. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. One of the things I like best about democracy's victory in Hungary is that it provides an irrefutable argument against those who claim "voting doesn't matter" and "voting can't change totalitarian regimes." Of *course* voting matters! Orban is gone! Everyone needs to vote, every time! (And we can still protest, throw sabots, etc. It's not either/or.) npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I had a small hole in a pair of tan jeans and our wonderful adult kid @npub142c…rkah offered to visibly mend them and this is what they did in about ten minutes and my mind is blown that Lyricdancer and I somehow created this talented generous human. Wow. How? Wow. Isn't it creative and beautiful? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Wait, Buzz gets promoted? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Don't understand your second paragraph. (Possibly because I'm high.) ? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Which reduces the value for me a good 40%, and not just because I sort of have a thing for her. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. We're watching the TV show "The Closer" and someone just referred to a TV show called "Cop Lawyer, M.D." and I'm ded. DED! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. It's tomorrow. Find your local #NoKings protest here: https://www.nokings.org/ npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Trying to think up a new sign for tomorrow's #NoKings protest. There's so much wrong I can't even begin deciding which one to point out. Open to suggestions. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. One thing I'm not hearing much about is how profoundly the Trump administration is revealing America's weaknesses to her enemies. Ten years ago it was widely assumed that our military was effectively unstoppable in a hot war. Now the entire world knows that it's not. We don't have sufficient missile defenses to protect our facilities. Our elections can be manipulated. Our leaders are avaricious dupes. We can be pwned. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Hey, I like Hillsboro! Great Mexican food, and lots of options at the weekend farmers market! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Wow, @npub1dmz…t0vq has turned radical! (Stumbled across on another site.) #ACAB #NotARealNancyComic npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Wow, #DogsATVShow may be the best #HashtagGames I've seen yet. The entries are pawfect. Check it out. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Well, I mean, that's why you're second (behind my Lyricdancer). But you're pretty awesome. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. You're the second best wife ever, you know that, right? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Dammit. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. But monkeys aren't indigenous to Vermont! You NE libtards are teaching children to vote for non-citizens! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Why do you wear them? If sweat, what about the armpits? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Can someone please explain the beater/tank type undershirt? I've always thought undershirts were to absorb perspiration, so it never made sense to me to wear an undershirt that doesn't cover the armpits. But otherwise, they're cool! Really asking. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Blocked for ableism. Be kinder. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Not "chose." No. A part of the brain responsible for language and emotion chose without any volition on his part. He did not choose to utter a slur. He just didn't. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. That is EXACTLY what coprolalia brains do. They call women b*tches, they call Jews k*kes. Coprolalia involves the region of the brain that selects language for emotion; that's why sufferers don't blurt out "apple!" but rather whatever is transgressive. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I understand how you feel, but you're misunderstanding the nature of the disability. A miswired part of his brain actually identifies the most inappropriate thing to say in a given situation, and blurts it out. The words aren't random; medically, it's called coprolalia, which literally means "shit speaking." Wikipedia explains it correctly: npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. People with Tourette's can be racist too, but I'm positive there were other racists in that audience and they didn't shout out the slur. It's theoretically possible that someone with Tourette's would use their disability as cover to intentionally say something like that, but in my view the chances of that are vanishingly low. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Hoo boy. I have a lot of complicated thoughts and feelings around the BAFTA incident, in part because I have Tourette's (though, thank God, not coprolalia) AND am a lawyer/mediator specializing in disability accommodations (in educational settings). In a nutshell, though: npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Which view is bullshit? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Why is the sky black? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Stolen from elsewhere: #SuperBowl npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Mara likes to rest her head in my hand. I'll occasionally scritch her jaw lightly with my thumb, and she always carefully places her paw on my wrist, holding my hand reassuringly the same way I'm holding her little head reassuringly. It's become our thing, and it makes me happy. Sorry, Lyricdancer, but this is the most romantic relationship I've ever had. #Caturday npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Wow. The same guy who instantly caved to Trump's threats to big law firms finally resigns – not because he's a quisling, but because it turns out he's also associated with Epstein. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. "[N]ew documents confirm in the government’s own words that what prompted the raid was more pedestrian [than Tren de Aragua]: allegations that immigrants were squatting in the complex. And the landlord had given federal officials, who were already targeting immigrants in Chicago, the blessing to search the building. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. It's a beautiful planet we inherited. I feel lucky. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. whYDOn'T yOu usE Ai??? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Bad news: there is erotic Trump fan fiction. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. And also for killing Indians and keeping enslaved people in line, of course. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Take a handling/safety class; then take a bird hunting class; buy a shotgun for [waves arms wildly at current events] and for food hunting in the event the economy completely collapses; then store it in a locked offsite location with keys to facility + trigger lock held by two different people so just one can't access? Reasoning in comments, please. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Heads up: eBay just sent an email updating their terms of service to add mandatory arbitration of any disputes. To opt OUT of arbitration, you need to send an opt-out notice, on paper, by mail, within 30 days. Here's the link to the notice form: https://pages.ebay.com/policies/arbitrate-optout.html npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I mean, he was paid to make LPs like this: Ronald Reagan Speaks Out Against Socialized Medicine - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Reagan_Speaks_Out_Against_Socialized_Medicine npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. People forget that the Boomers were the hippies. They were the antiwar protestors. They were the kids mowed down at Kent State. They were the greatest generation of musicians of all time. They invented Earth Day. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Look, I'm not saying Canada should surround and seize Washington D.C. to save us from fascism. I'm just saying that in case they *do*, I've plotted out three invasion routes they could use without being cut off from certain critical supplies. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Okay, you're doing terribly. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Location list/map for tomorrow's nationwide "ICE Out for Good" protests endorsed by the ACLU: https://www.mobilize.us/?tag_ids=29132&utm_source=aclu npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. And The Catcher In the Rye is garbage, absolute garbage. I love everything else Salinger wrote but this novel belongs in the shredder. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Ten years ago: "Trump to declare end to nation building, if elected president." https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/trump-declare-end-nation-building-elected-president npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I think the Chambord is similar but would be an improvement! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Sorry, I was thinking of kirsch, but it's not even that. Bols black raspberry liqueur (basically raspberry brandy). npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. On Christmas an adult kid wanted a sweet strong cocktail so I invented one: blackberry kolsch + grenadine + brandy + soda. To my family's dismay and amusement and because it's fundamentally tacky yet stimulating, I named it "The Carny's Third Sidepiece." npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I gave both adult kids copies "A Psalm for the Wild-Built" by Becky Chambers, with an inscription saying that I'll keep fighting to leave them a better world but in the meantime here's one they can live in for at least a few hours. #MonkAndRobot npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. How did you keep her out of the water? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I can't get past it running the Oscar over the infinitely better Pulp Fiction. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Thanks for sharing that! Also, fun fact: for 19th century young people, the "one horse open sleigh" was the equivalent of the later "Little Deuce Coupe": it was fast so they'd hold races (ergo the bit about getting flipped over on a snowbank), AND it could only hold two passengers (so young men and women could talk – and maybe more – without a chaperone sitting in the back seat). npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Here, have still MORE Christmas stuff. We all getting in the right mood now? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Here, have some more Christmas stuff. Ho ho ho and yippie kay-yay. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Here, have some Christmas stuff. Ho ho ho etc. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I think you're exactly right, and also it's hilarious that she just gave it away instead of writing a tell-all sure $$$ whenever she ended up getting fired as she eventually would have anyway. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Oh no!!! Soldiers on elephants are crossing the Siskiyous and converging on Sacramento!!! Turns out the "C" actually stands for "Carthage"!!! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Wonder if you could do the old fraternity house trick and inject a watermelon with Pedialyte instead of vodka. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Aw, man, the accused DC pipe bomber was a *Black* Trumpie. I'm pretty sure that right there would make a successful insanity defense. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Happy Krampusnacht to those who celebrate. It's the most magical night of the year! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Taps mic, points to sign: npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Nice to see him up and about! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Our local Home Depot operates a Flock license plate reader camera. Because of course they do. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. A perfect beach break like that, and yet you and Summer didn't surf? Wimps. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. John Oliver is holding an online auction to raise money for public media (in response to Trump's fzcking budget cuts), and the items up for auction are amazeballs! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Okay but what if in our personal experience he actually is that person? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. This is the correct answer: npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Because Himalayan blackberries are both prolific and invasive here. No one needs to buy one, and if they do, it will consume their garden and then their neighbor's garden and then gardens a mile away. (And Luther Burbank, who actually was a great horticulturalist, is who imported them to California, not realizing birds would spread them everywhere.) https://positivebloom.com/risks-of-growing-invasive-blackberries-you-shouldnt-ignore/ npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Damn, I love being more literate than they are. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Capitalism at its very worst (at least to gardeners in Oregon's Willamette Valley): #evil #gardening #EffLutherBurbank npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Imagine one person at the Jamestown colony having more wheat in his barn than the poorer half of his peers PUT TOGETHER, and not distributing it to his starving community. What would the starving people have done? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S.

Bellows, Jr. Damn: "Michael Wolff, a longtime chronicler of Trump’s White House who conducted extensive interviews with Epstein prior to his death, told The Daily Beast last month that Epstein had shown him photos of Trump with half-naked 'young girls' in his lap." npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Okay look all I really need to know is, when my mom pulls out that orange studded with cloves thing over the holidays, can I stay in the room or should I run like hell? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Oh, my God, no. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Any idea what the appeal is? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Halloween status update: doing a brisk trade in raw potatoes. 31 y.o. offspring is boggled. Boggled! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. This is how to do Halloween. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Wait, so you put up your Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving and take them down before Christmas? npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Thanks for being open instead of defensive! Usually I just do a keyword search then look for reputable sources among the garbage. In this case I just searched for the first few words from the plaque to see if I could find an independent description of where it's located (eg a Wikipedia page about it), and the factcheck was in the top few results. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Not actually true. Factcheck things, people! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Among other things, Trump tore down the East Wing because one time the coward actually bugged out to the emergency shelter beneath it, and probably was offended that it's isn't as opulent as Mark Zuckerberg's End Times bunker in Hawaii. https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-ap-top-news-george-floyd-politics-a2326518da6b25b4509bef1ec85f5d7f npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. The Bay Area has a lot of tunnels and bridges, especially around Alameda. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Inadvertent upside: when a good person becomes president again and rips out Trumps horrendous balls room, the rebuilt East Wing *won't* have been built by enslaved people! npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Ice axes are what we do with our hands now that no one smokes cigarettes anymore. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I've been a litigator for nearly four decades. This is a horseshit move. Defendants get to choose their own lawyer. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. What I'm trying to say is, your dude is a cool dude and you were right to choose him even if times now are challenging. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. SO. FUCKING. COOL. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. Also too? Tanker} pilots are SO. FUCKING. COOL. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. In my 1982 training they told us that a USFS inspector found a pot field and was confronted by the grower with a shotgun but talked his way out of it by explaining that he only was interested in fire conditions and obv. the grower didn't want his crop to burn but then a week later the Mendo sheriff launched a pre-planned raid so the grower assumed the USFS guy had narced and a month later a FS helicopter was downed by rifle fire that hit the engine and the FS elected to report it as merely an engine malfunction because they didn't want to do Hatfields & McCoys. npub1fdxkhtc8y07vch8nxzjk4v64sslyvmlnk8ldr99ktav5qcj8mvesny5qau M.S. Bellows, Jr. I fought fire in the Eighties in Mendo. We received as much training in not pissing off the dangerous pot growers and how to avoid their booby traps as we did in fire science.
