>> Pubs trying to pass a bill that would not even allow government scientists to study global warming.

What? 97% already agree GW is a fact, that it is bad and will destroy the world.

How about we spend the money learning something 97% of scientists don't already agree on?

How about we spend the money teaching some of these nitwits Civics?

Heh, this guy has been a real estate guy for his whole adult life ... apt managing, then ownership and he doesn't know not to stop up his own drain:

It is always something.

I decided to replant my indoor plant that is root bound.

So I put it over the sink to wash the soil sticking to the plant and plugged up my sink.

The water is draining slowly so only 10,000 more plunges and I should free it up.
.......

I solved it. I figured the stuff was like peat moss and compacted, so a plunger wouldn't work that well.

But it would slowly drain. So once it had drained I shot a blast of water down the pipe figuring it would blow it up. It took about 20 times, but it worked.

So now I can wash the dishes.

Whew.

But he thinks he's a genius cause he's liberal:

No it is only the right wing. The extreme left wing is filled with geniuses and scientist-lol.

There is that false equivalency again thinking far left and far right is the same. They are exact opposites, as a matter of fact.

Think of an IQ bell graph. What do you have? Facing it:

3 standard deviations to the left you have people who need care to even live.

3 standard deviations to the right and you have Einstein, Noam Chomsky, Linus Pauling and the hippies;

Oh, and Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren :>)..
