The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Someone had made a nice quip when I spoke of "exploding" populations in Europe and said I reminded them of some song. That wasn't a good idea apparently ;) I'm too lazy to quote it. I had said - that I hope such apathy continues.

Well ok, fine. Not "exploding" all the time.

In France.... the exploding population is "fired up" due to disenfranchisement, racism, homophobia, and misogyny, and the rich not paying their fair share, and Bush and Trump. Well. I dunno if those are the reasons but those reasons are cited by the Left for just about everything in America. Hopefully France is introspective. Thinks about "why they hate us" like Americans were supposed to do after 9-11, and France gets Woke soon.

France's largest library: Burned down.

"France Violence: Rioters Burn Down Largest Public Library In Marseille; Visuals Surface"

NOT in the linked article but I read that there were over 9 million books and manuscripts in there -- - not that I've been reading EVERY single headline and story I can about it.

I'd say best to write about stories, about news or atheism or politics - and not about individual posters personally.

The results of such - are unpalatable.

Well, from a certain point of view.
