I would like a different reality, please.
Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Always, Dana. But especially now.
It is a Déjà vu situation where we are back where every day brings a new horror. We went through this last time, and yes indeed, it did get worse the next time around. Hugs LAistas tight.
It's so much BS. The protests are less action in the streets than we see after a Laker's game.
All my Angeleno friends are trying to explain the protests are confined to very local areas and not LA at large. He's actively attempting to provoke a strong and publicly evident protest so he can call martial law before the midterms, and call them off. Right out of the Nazi playbook."We'll vote them out at midterms," not so much. We may have already enjoyed the last free election in this country.
He also wants to scare his followers about those horrible immigrants flouting his sensible deportations. And scare the people who are planning to protest next week to stay home.

Like Portland in 2020, where the protests basically involved one city block.
Where would I have put my safety goggles? They're not in the big tool box where I thought they'd be.
Or Seattle in 2020–it was about two blocks worth. I could drive down the street one block parallel to it and not realize anything was happening. It SOUNDED scary to say “I live six blocks away from the police station that got taken over!” But seriously other than a few times when there was helicopters low flying for too long, you wouldn’t know.
