Time for a late dinner with my hard-working wife and some Netflix and crochet.
This has been a terrible day.
You can't quite see the stitch yet. It's nice. However, this yarn is very bulky and hellish to work with and I will never work with it again. But it looks great and is super soft. So that's all that matters.
Oh and Criminal on Netflix is terrific. (If you like crime shows.)

WTAF is this? What about Warren, Sanders, Buttigieg, Harris and Yang--all polling ahead of Steyer?

CNN to host Iowa presidential town halls with Tom Steyer, Joe Biden cnn.com/2019/11/04/pol…
My colleague @Will_Bunch who hates to see me have public meltdowns in which I use acronymic cursing since I don't curse on here reminds me that @CNN gave everyone town halls and that everyone else did theirs nearly a year ago, but Biden was trying to avoid his. Also, follow Will.
@Will_Bunch @CNN I do hope the first question @TomSteyer gets at his @CNN town hall right after he is asked about buying his way into the primary is "Why did your campaign steal the data mining from the only black woman in the race?"

While I applaud housing homeless people as I was once homeless myself and there is no more desperate feeling or circumstance, one has to remember how many people are driven to medical bankruptcy and even homelessness by the health insurance industry.
Also, more than half of America's homeless have serious mental health issues and most healthcare plans don't cover mental health care in even the most basic ways. So health insurers like United Health are conttibuting to the circumstance of untreated mental illness in America.
And let me reiterate that America needs full medical coverage and only 3 candidates support #MedicareForAll: @ewarren @BernieSanders & @KamalaHarris. Every other candidate equivocates on why not every American needs medical coverage. Millions of kids have no coverage right now.

I don't know who needs this lesson to countravene the "scary Socialism will take your choice" Palin approach that we heard in 2009 with the ACA, but your insurance can deny any coverage based on cost NOW--& does every hour of every day. #M4A insures everyone. THAT is the lesson.
I have had to spend HOURS trying to convince my insurere--one of the top insurance companies in the country--to pay for my OXYGEN, which is essential for me to BREATHE. For two weeks I have been fighting over the cost of ny lung medication. AND my premium is $1,978.10 PER MONTH.
So these Palinesque "death panels" arguments against #M4A are a throwback to 2009 and the passage of the #ACA which wasn't even insurance, just a law making insurers accountable. There are MILLIONS of uninsured kids--new study last week. We have to do better than fearmongering.

@emrazz 1/16 So this is how I came to support Sanders - before he announced his candidacy he was not on my radar screen at all. Then, in late 2014, I started to see social media posts of his talking about individual issues like healthcare, income inequality, student debt, etc.
@emrazz 2/16 I was on FMLA leave caring for my mom. She was a lifelong Dem & champion of the underdog; her mom was a Suffragette. Caregiving is flurries of activity interspersed w/ long periods of nothing, I had blocks of time on my hands & I began copying and pasting Bernies posts.
@emrazz 3/16 I thought ‘this looks like a pretty interesting campaign platform’ & of course it was. I’m a lifelong Dem, but occasionally registered DTS & voted outside the party, so Bernie’s being an Independent was not a problem for me. I could relate, & I think a lot of folks do too.

1/ People are asking me what I thought about the Netflix special. The video clips of Mary Gates were special. Mary was a role model for me and many other people. She was a force of nature. Kind, smart, interesting, hard working, determined and charming. netflix.com/title/80184771
2/ Bill talking about his grandmother Adelle teaching him how to play cards including bridge was revealing. Adelle told me once at her house on Hood Canal that she would tell Bill to "think smart" as they played cards. They called her "Gam" and she gave Bill the nickname "Trey."
3/ I wrote about Mary Gates in my blog post on being a board member. 25iq.com/featured-indiv… The portrait in a UW Hall named after her is perfect. The quote from one of her speeches was an excellent choice. She said: "It's not what you get or what you give. It's what you become."

So, i wanted to expand on some of the stuff I said in my last video about Lefttube being sponsored. Thoughts that I had after it was published and after I found out that apparently there are leftists on some corner of the internet who are incredibly upset by this.
So, I have a lot to say as someone who's fairly passionate about my political stances, and also as someone who has been a Youtube since they were 15 years old who has largely sabotaged their success and avoided sponsorships and other things because I wanted to be true to my work
There's some debate about "lefttube" and what it is exactly. I don't particularly have a problem with this categorization existing. I read it as a fandom of sorts. It takes on its own meaning that may or may not have anything to do with these creators.

It’s #Monday, I’m boozing it up at a 4 seat bar, the #barkeep is a long pourer, and I’m all fucking set if I get something stuck between my teeth.👇🙃 #RandomThoughts #drinking #OutAndAbout
Shooting the shit with a friend, she’s proud to be doing well with her plants - unusual for her.

The key was a #video explaining the benefits of pruning.

She needs REASONS. She got them.

Apparently, pruning in a particular manner stimulates growth hormones.

Of course, this led to me initiating a discussion about the #movie I just watched on Hulu, called “The German Doctor.”

The main character was Josef Mengele. #ThisHappened

People, this is why I’m known in my circles as “The Black Hole Of Conversation.” SMTH
