This may belong in FHOPolitic, but

there are a lot of political posts in fhop, no one seems to care anymore, it's the wild west at priuschat

 

for instance:how-to-start-a-war.256685

 

Yep.

Feel sorry for old Tideline...

 

fortunately, most of our members are pretty civil

 

Taylor Swift too????



Bob Wilson

 

Huh, so that's, like, an ad that I would see at the bottom of somebody's PriusChat post if I were browsing with JavaScript on?

There's so much I miss....

 

'They', if I'm to believe the screenshot, seem to be somebodies called "Baptist Hub".

As if I didn't have enough things to be curious about today.

 

USDA has a policy outlawing harassment based on political beliefs:

I need Bob's marine vocab for that.

In polite terms, we are being governed by petty children.

Hatch Act came to mind.

 

You're really going to want to stay out of there.
It's messy enough lately up here in the pancake haus.

You need some slobber and fur therapy.

As far as Ms Swift?
Not really interested in seeing her at all.....bathing suit or no bathing suit.
But then....
I get Harbor Freight ads more than anything else.

 

Funny you mention the Hatch Act. I used to live in the redwoods in Northern California and still keep up with the news there.

One of the three online news sites there ran a poll about the USDA notice. here's a link to a poll they ran among readers and a couple mention Hatch

The USDA has a web site?
I'm afraid to look......
Will I start getting Swift ads if I go there?

 

Yeah, but a different Swift -- you will get the company that sells bacon and ham.

 

I've made enough laps around the nearest star to be eligible for Social Security, and I'm on the internet a LOT.

Somehow I've never wondered if the USDA even HAD a web site - or why someone might go there.......
Now I'm afraid to look!!

 

USDA established 1862 by Pres. Lincoln. The website came along later. Its utility varies among users; for me the US Forest Service (within) has links to publications authored by employees whose work cannot be paywalled.

"Due to the Radical Left Democrat shutdown, this government website will not be updated during the funding lapse. President Trump has made it clear he wants to keep the government open and support those who feed, fuel, and clothe the American people."

 

It isn't just the USDA nor web pages.

Down the Hatch then.

 

Hmm ..... seems you have to live in it to understand even half of it .... happy to remain ignorant about most of it ......

Did see this on another website and thought it was too good not to share
