It was an incredibly harrowing 6 mile hike at midnight through heavy and slippery mud, but I got safely out of Burning Man. Never been before and it was fantastic (with brilliant art and fabulous music)…except the ending.
@jmbler@carol_33410@DavidJollyFL OH listed as likely R and Lean R, but due to massive GOP leadership bribery $60M charges by feds, screaming covid numbers, even gerrymandering / election fraud might not help the most corrupt gov in US history.
@Peter_Grinspoon I have a number of Viet Vets friends with Neuropathy. Medical science can’t help them. They’ve thrown tons of meds against the wall and zero stuck - eventually they load em up with morphine. THCA + CBD oil = overnight relief.
@andrewcockerpoo@SageDog5@SteveSchmidtSES@serenawilliams 1984 Los Angeles Olympics was a huge financial success. 14 Eastern Block nations, including USSR boycotted - shrug. 1980 Winter Olympics, Lake Placid, (Remember Miracle on Ice,) financial success. 2002 Winter Olympics, Salt Lake a financial success (Remember Mitt Romney?)
@andrewcockerpoo@SageDog5@SteveSchmidtSES@serenawilliams USA boycott started a series of geopolitical events. 66 countries boycotted, the economically powerful, Islamic countries, 80 competed, most in USSR’s orbit. Most expensive olympics = financial catastrophe + diplomatic boycott, grain embargo, global arms spending, Afghan rebels,
@SageDog5@SteveSchmidtSES@serenawilliams That 1980 boycott of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan organized by POTUS Carter, eventually 60 nations, is an extraordinary lesson in soft power, perhaps the most successful boycott in world history, led to the collapse of the Soviet Union 10 yrs later.
@TCo2020@mudhensrfav Didn’t the GOP write those 2 ballot initiatives? In order to prevent independent initiatives from appearing on the ballot? It’s time for a truly independent initiative that outlaws political involvement in re-districting.
@Laurie_Garrett Ronald Regan, pitchman for Death Valley Days, showed the power and strength of 20 Mule Team Borax - tv commercials - scrubbed clean, brights your smile. It’s the All New GQP Way.
@Laurie_Garrett@GretaThunberg Time to Organize Consumers Globally - send a message to the Exxons and coal barrons of the world.
Pick one.
Boycott it - globally - lost income + costly storage n transport disruption, etc. they’d All get the message.
The people of earth have LOTS of money = a HUGE VOICE
