@futurebird "If people want to come here..."I like the advice about ants: fix their habitat outside and they won't come inside.Most of the "immigrants" from south of the border are actually seeking asylum.

@futurebird I thought he was in Little Orphan Annie, but no--just in the same (old) newspaper:"Mandrake began publication on June 11, 1934"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandrake_the_Magician

@futurebird Betcha right wingers think they're gaining something if teenagers use "based" and a version of "lock and load".Too bad.Kids will run with it and make it unintelligible to 'em.

@futurebird @CptSuperlative Funny. Urban dictionary has "Let it cook" and "Let him cook" but not "Let her cook".

@futurebird @akamran So...slow it down and teach 'em how to fix it themselves. Things don't just break down once: life requires maintenance.

@futurebird @vestige Laffer: math is hard.Curve go up, curve go down.Republicans claim tax cuts pay for themselves and the innumerate bow and nod TEAly.

@futurebird (IMHO) In the workman's shop, combination tools fail. Neither tool does correctly what it should. Make the wastebasket tall so you don't trip.A step stool that folds will end up breaking.

@futurebird @sarble When did OTB happen in NY? Mark that date as the first definite sign that the economy was going south.If people are doing well, they don't throw money at lotteries etc.The NEW NEW NEW betting with apps is just more evidence that people are hurting.

@futurebird There are ants that use their eyes more than other ants. They should be the only ones tested for visual self recognition.Need to come up with an appropriate ant mirror reflecting their touch or smell.

@futurebird "Have ya'll learned nothing? "Nope.In Clinton we had a schoolteacher; "Wash behind your ears, eat your vegetables candidate. We voted for the "bad" guy.In Harris we had a black woman. We voted for the sex offender.Nothing really important happens in (US) politics without an economic depression.
