  • We queued, this is, my wife did…

    We were hunting for concert tickets, and as the online share was gone within seconds, we had to get tickets from the bands’ office. We drove into their area in town rather early, and then we saw a queue. I told my wife: “That must be the ticket queue, you go out and join, I find a place to park, and we meet in the queue or at their office.”

    Turned out that finding a place to park in that area was basically impossible, and when I finally arrived at the ticket office much later, she had already gotten the tickets. And I had dropped her off just in time - the guys behind her got the very last ones. We did take the bus to get back to the car.











  • When someone would scream into your face “Animals like you should be shot!”, wouldn’t it hurt you?

    If someone spread lies about you or your family or your business if you had one, wouldn’t it do damage?

    If someone spread the word that people of color or other minorities would do this or that (wasn’t it “Haitians eating dogs” or something recently?) and it led to people attacking this minority, wouldn’t it be dangerous?

    Remember January 6th, where Trump whipped up the stupid to storm the Capitol? He did not use a cattle prod or stick, he only used words, and see what has happened.

    And look closely at what the GOP is doing. They are spreading lies, and repeat them, until they fester and replace the truth in the hearts of the listeners.

    And now tell me again that words can do no harm.
