Minneapolis is celebrating Indigenous Peoples Day instead of Columbus Day. Another reason why I'm proud to live here.

Good.

Also. Living rent free in my mind? No. They can't afford the rent. Somebody dredged up a post, commented on it with shit that happened to someone I didn't give a rat's ass about and verity was laid down. That ain't living rent free in the brain, that's telling it how it is. Bitch better get a clue.

Up to no good— quite literally.

Today, here, nothing is celebrated. Biz like usual.

I've been applying for Federal jobs, because I feel the need to serve my fellow citizens. No... really!

My observation is that I have met so many stupid people in government, that I must be really, really stupid because they could figure out the process and I can't!

What a nightmare.

I've never really had a job, so maybe this process is just a vetting process.

I bet you can tell I’m a woman,” she said, “and I suspect the rest of the world can, too.”

She said she was all too aware that if she was selected, she would represent several hundred male athletes in the NBA; she would deal with league officials and agents who were nearly all men; she would negotiate with team owners who were almost all men; and she would stand before reporters who were predominantly men.

She did not flinch. “My past,” she told the room, “is littered with the bones of men who were foolish enough to think I was someone they could sleep on.

— Michele Roberts, the new head of the NBA Player’s Union

Those Ebola threads are so lame. Why not stop the arguing and wash your hands with hot soap and water?

You're looking for semi-retirement?

Don't do it. It's not all it's cracked up to be.

Even they look sinister! Not as much as Pete's giant bollock though.

I observed the GB for a few months before jumping in 6 months ago and IMO that will never happen. The differing political views between some have turned into down right hate. Good News is Your eyes will eventually adjust, filtering them out without using the iggy button

I just dislike when they drag their personal & Political grudges into other threads
Some of them are downright funny when not in attack mode.

Unless something very dramatic occurs in the last three months of 2014—
.......for the sixth year in a row and for the 10th year out of the last 13,
the return from holding cash will be less than the rate of inflation.

That means that government is penalizing you (it is, in effect, stealing from you) if you save.
