I actively boycott all sorts of things, that I’ve never wanted to own. I may even have had a pair of Florsheim shoes, when I was a kid, and my parents needed me to have a ‘suit’ to dress up in, for some wedding, funeral, etc. Now that they are associated with toxic trumpy, they are as dead to me. They could take steps (pun intended) to rehab their image, the goper/maga stench is persistent.

I’m not certain how long, but it’s been a very long time since I even heard this shoemaker’s name. Boycotting will be so easy.

The potus can’t make a good economy, but their policies can pave the way for a good economy to occur. The potus can’t all by themselves make a bad economy, and their policies can smooth the path for an economy’s downfall. It’s in the order of things that it’s easier to destroy something than to make it. This administration taking the easy route. And the whole world is taking a beating. smh.

Nice, keep the lawsuits coming! lol

I haven’t seen him in a while, so not sure. Yes for number 2. No cardiomegaly, that I’m aware of.

I have a friend who is a Culinary Institute of America graduate, who has been involved in every aspect of running numerous restaurants over decades. And he loves to go find that small time, ‘mom & pop’ greasy spoon, and and check them out, to see what they are doing. But he def. is not seeking out, and comparing this wiffle house, to that IHOP, etc.

I was just sharing something that another fediverse user has shared from their own research. And hey, I can take criticism; it was quite reasonable to be suspect of a google link. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. Sometimes I get unreasonably over enthusiastic. :-D

It’s not in my genetics, and I’m not interested in crispr’ing out my human decency.

I’m linking to a file called epstein_victim_reports.pdf. Produced by someone I follow on Pixelfed. They and others, posting mostly on reddit, have been using search tools to go thru what has been released, and documenting their findings.

You make a good point. How do I link a .pdf? Seems I can’t just drop it on the comment above. I should be able to UL it to my server, and give a link to that, I suppose. I’ve ul’d the file, but the share link is not anonymous, and I don’t wish to draw undue attention to the server, as it is run by an associate. How to do I share that file anonymously? I’m happy to do this better, but don’t know how.

editted.

Prolly, back in the 70s - 80s, def. gone downhill, while at the same time my discernment went up. My expectations, at that moment was, “well, how bad could it be, and I’ve got to get something to eat in this godforsaken food desert”. I had a teacher many years ago who said it was important to try things twice, to make sure the first impression was correct. Obviously somethings one should never try once. As for Waffle House, I’ll pass. If it’s a greasy spoon, it’s a corporate greasy spoon. Definitely not the place you would expect Tom Waits to be hanging out drinking coffee, and writing another amazing paean to the common person’s experience.

greasy spoon noun

1. A small, inexpensive, often unsanitary restaurant.
2. An inexpensive diner or other informal restaurant, especially one specializing in frying or grilling.
3. A small restaurant specializing in short-order fried foods.

There are a lot of people committed to making sure it won’t go away. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1fXqBioUq-OtShq6IRzeU_k2ZDjir-agb

That response leads me to think he really is on death’s door. He cares not a whit for the nation he currently rules over, nor for any other person more than for himself.

Fair. I’m not an English major.

Some years back I went to a waffle house, GAH! Not actual food. Save your time, money, and GI tract.

So it’s an attempt to not split the vote?

BINGO! We have a winner.

My eyes went absolutely batty, and haven’t stopped. Suggestions?

I read it that way too, because I’m a native English speaker, and there is no punctuation. How would I know if some corp news media had a division in another country?

Rented out as housing to the youngest generation for exorbitant prices?

Contact your senators and tell them in no uncertain terms your informed opinion of their actions. "47-53 vote mostly along party lines " All Dems minus Fetterman DINO, plus Rand Paul = 47
