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.

Or whoever wrote the complaint she bleated out...

“you know how sometimes you wake up in the morning and the First Lady puts out a statement demanding that you be fired from your job? we’ve all been there, right? we’re seeing yet another twitter vomit-storm, and a call to fire me from our First Lady, Melania Trump, saying I should be fired because of a joke I made, again, five nights ago. it was a pretend roast, I said that ‘our First Lady Melania’s here, look at her, so beautiful, Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow.’ which obviously was a joke about their age difference and the look of joy we see on her face every time they’re together. it was a very light roast joke about the fact that he’s almost 80 and she’s younger than I am. it was not by any stretch of the imagination a call to assassination — and they know that. I’ve been very vocal for many years, speaking out against gun violence in particular. but I understand that the First Lady had a stressful experience over the weekend, and probably every weekend is pretty stressful in that house, and I agree hateful and violent rhetoric is something we should reject. I do, and I think a great place to start to dial that back would be to have a conversation with your husband about it.”
