Here's a random fact: Honey never spoils. Archaeologists have found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3000 years old and are still perfectly edible.

“Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed. That word is ‘Nazi’ Nobody cares about their motives anymore.”

- A.R. Moxon

Grr. Some fucker just tried to shame me for expecting medical professionals to wear high-quality masks when doing procedures on me which necessitate me not wearing a mask. It’s to protect both them and me, you rectal canoe! He tried to say there was no scientific evidence masks helped. Blocked that guy. Blargh. I got COVID at the dentist office, FFS. I can’t believe we’re going back to the days when people rolled their eyes at germ theory. #MaskUp

If you look for similarities to Nazism, you will find it in Palestinian homes. Gaza had a Hitler 2 shop until IDF recently took it down - it had puppets with knives at the windows.

We are finding Hitler books everywhere in children's bedrooms and Hamas literature.

Jews now and before as a people always wanted to just exist in peace. None of us like the destruction to Palestinians, obviously outside of some, but they don't represent Israelies and have 0 to do with Zionism

I often wonder anymore why it is a couple hundred thousand members of the United States military fought and died in WW2 fighting Nazis. Because here in America these days, it’s gettin’ to be like it never happened. Like, those U.S. troops died for absolutely no reason.

Do not argue with a woman when she’s tired or rested.

If you offer her caviar on the first date, you’re quite the roemancer.

The #Iowa legislature, at the behest of the NRA and the politically powerful group Iowa Gun Owners, passed a law banning credit card companies from flagging suspicious gun purchases. So much for the Republican Party being tough on crime. The NRA does not believe in the 2nd Amendment. They believe in the right of criminals to bear arms. Big difference. #GunControl https://littlevillagemag.com/iowa-house-approves-bill-to-prevent-tracking-of-suspicious-gun-purchases-on-party-line-vote/

Red flag: In the US, "#teachers are dead last among all occupational groups and professions in feeling their opinions count at work, that their supervisor creates an open and trusting environment and that they are treated with respect each day. Teachers are also the highest of all professions in experiencing burn-out and stress. And it’s no wonder why half of all teachers are currently looking for a new job."
