Asked if winning a Nobel Peace Prize or becoming President was the most exciting thing that happened to him Jimmy Carter responds, “when Rosalynn said she’d marry me — I think that was the most exciting thing.”

From the "It Was Never About Zionism" Dept., in partnership with the "I Can't Possibly Be Antisemitic Some Of My Best Friends Are Jewish" Dept.: “A bomb squad is called to a Satmar Hassidic synagogue in Lakewood, New Jersey after a grenade was found strapped to a utility pole nearby, according to local reports.”

@Benfell@hcommons.social What did you do towards that goal 40 years ago? @scenario
@rticks@mastodon.social Like the pictures says…if we don’t vote for Biden in 24, we won’t have the opportunity to vote ever again.
@scenario And who would you like to see primary him? @Benfell@hcommons.social
@Benfell@hcommons.social I thought that was Republicans.
@Benfell@hcommons.social You think Biden is a “neoliberal?”

My uncle says the architects got rid of the front porches because they didn't look well. But my uncle says that was merely rationalizing it; the real reason, hidden underneath, might be they didn't want people sitting like that, doing nothing, rocking, talking; that was the wrong kind of social life. People talked too much. And they had time to think. So they ran off with the porches. And the gardens, too. - Ray Bradbury, “Fahrenheit 451”
