I have had some glitchy experiences as well. 

On my iPhone, there are ads that have to be turned off before I can proceed.

I think it's the same thing that Mel described.

And on my desktop, sometimes when I click on a topic, the page is fogged

over and the web address turns to something about google, but it doesn't

happen that often.

I also don't see the point in displaying ads for things like tractors.  

Troy was asking why there isn't more  participation and I wonder if the

ads are having an impact, since some people don't like ads at all.

You Ladies should probably contact him directly since he might not

read all these comments.

I'm no expert on race but, in my opinion, being 1/16th Indian from

India does not make you "Blindian."  

She seems like one of those Black people that isn't proud of their  

heritage, who wants to deny their Blackness, so she's claiming to

be something different, as if that makes her special somehow. 

Why can't certain celebrities just be satisfied with their acclaim 

and accomplishments, why do they need additional attention

for something that's not even valid. 

She is just Black.

I believe that China released that virus on purpose to interfere with

That's the thing to do, isn't it?  

Even the vaccinated need to continue trying to isolate themselves as

much as possible, especially now that it seems the vaccine isn't as

effective against COVID and its variations as was previously thought.   

I have so many questions.

Another reason to be skeptical, I was listening to somebody on RAV

or NewsMax asking why so many health professionals are refusing 

to get vaccinated.

Do they know something that the rest of us do not?

I am retired but I still dabble in domaining and website development, 

also am on an MMO forum to keep up with what's going on in the

************************************************************************************ 

@Cynique

This particular vaccination is different from the others we've had in the

past because it was a rush job and it did not undergo the normal trials  

that vaccines must routinely endure. 

Then there are all the rumors surrounding the COVID vaccine, and the 

negative comments that influential people have made about it, all of 

this has caused people to be reluctant about getting vaccinated.

What @Pioneer1 and other employees are going through is so much 

more than being punished for not being vaccinated.  Citizens do not 

even have the right to their medical privacy anymore.  This used to 

be sacred and it should be unlawful to violate people's privacy. 

Our rights are gradually being stripped away from us until we'll have

nothing left, and then it will be too late to do anything about it.

Right now, I'm just worried about Pioneer1, this is not a good time to

be out of a job, or without an income.  People have enough things 

to worry about.

I just hope he will be alright.

Where are you Pioneer1???

Actually I didn't JUST quit...I quit my job about a week ago.
Dozens of us did.

I've heard that anywhere from 1/4 to 1/3 of the entire workforce at the company I worked for have quit over the vaccine mandates that they are imposing.

((Don't worry Troy this isn't gonna be an anti-vaxx propaganda post....lol))

They sent us an email and a letter the other month and I told them to go jump in a lake of shit, lol.

We walked away a week ago.
First a few of us, then more and more as the week progressed.
But it wasn't finalized and we thought there might be a chance through litigations and other actions to halt the mandate coming from corporate, but apparently it didn't.

I'm not going to debate about what he deserved, people need to stop

We need to return to the days where if we have a police encounter,

You really don't know HOW many children you're gonna be able to handle in life because you don't know the FUTURE.

You might be healthy with a good job and plenty of money RIGHT NOW and alone, broke, and sick as hell 5 years from now.

YOU DON'T KNOW

And since you don't know the future or how you'll end up, it's nice to live in a society where a STRONG SAFETY NET of social programs are in place that allow you to support yourself and any dependents you might have in the event you fall on hard times.
It allows you to keep from falling through the cracks until you can get back on your feet.
And even if you NEVER get back on your feet.....atleast you can have a roof over your head and a warm meal in your stomach and not live like an animal on the street.

 

************************************************************************************

@Pioneer1

Well one thing is for certain - if you can't even take care of your own self 

and you have to worry that you might be living on the street like an 

animal, then you need to take my advice that I already posted.

************************************************************************************

************************************************************************************

@Pioneer1 and @ProfD

I don't know about any code.  

I only had one child in my lifetime, I was very young and

I was married at the time, but I knew that one was all

that I could handle during that phase of my life. After

that I had a career and no time for more babies.

Marriage and men are fickle.  There are too many variables 

that can happen in relationships - People quit/terminated 

from their jobs, become disabled, die, they come out of the

closet, run off with whoever, and leave you behind to raise

their children alone. 

Oftentimes they start new families with somebody else.

I have seen it happen countless times both in the real world 

and on television.  Women with three or more children have

been abandoned, for whatever reason, to fend for

themselves and all those children.  

Common sense would dictate that you don't end up in that 

awful predicament by planning your life as much as possible

and controlling your reproduction.  That goes for women as 

well as men.

So when I praise the Veteran's Administration and the U.S. Army for the

The medical care that my Husband risked his life for thirty years to receive 

that benefit.  BTW, he's a 100% disabled Vietnam veteran with diseases and

ailments from being exposed to Agent Orange, among other things, so he's 

more than entitled to those benefits and this is the last time I will be posting 

on this topic, because you have no idea what we are dealing with and it's

not some joke.

But then when you demand medical benefits and free housing for everybody

that ever bought a bag of potato chips, you are NOT a SOCIALIST?

@Pioneer1

I’m going to snag your formatting except I am on my iPhone

and can’t get the colors.

Pioneer1:  You brought up your husbands decades of service in the military as justification for him receiving quality health-care...suggesting that those who DIDN'T put in service to this nation didn't deserve it.

Mzuri:  I wasn’t SUGGESTING anything.  People who didn’t

serve this Nation don't deserve what my Husband and all 

the other honorable Veterans receive.  Sorry.

Pioneer1:  So I offered Donald Trump...who DODGED the draft and didn't serve at all in the military....but still received top notch healthcare as an example to see if you thought it was fair or not.

Mzuri:  Trump didn’t dodge the draft, he received a medical

exemption, by you repeating your lies is not going to change

anything, just keep losing your own credibility.

Of course he received top notch health care, he’s the President

of the United States of America.  You didn’t expect him to come

to your local hole in the wall urgent care facility, did you?

Pioneer1:  If you don't think it's fair that a person who bought a bag of cheetos should get the same right to good health as a person who served in the military...then what about someone who actually DODGED the military?

Mzuri:  See my respose above and stop being childish.

Pioneer 1:  Also, along that point......

If you are suggesting that a person who hasn't contributed much to this society doesn't deserve free healthcare or quality healthcare.
Then what about children and adults who were born disabled and haven't worked AT ALL?

Mzuri:  That is what Welfare, Medicaid, and other social

services are for.

Pioneer1:  Generally speaking children have contributed little to the taxes and production in this society...does that mean they don't deserve quality health care.

Mzuri:  That is their parents’ responsibility.  

Don’t you think?

Pioneer1:  I say ALL U.S. CITIZENS deserve free decent quality health care no matter their income level or social status.
No favoritism when it comes to health and saving lives

No one should sit in judgement and decides who deserves to have their cancer treated and who should deserves to die of cancer in an alley alone because they were "lazy" by someone else's standards.

Mzuri:  Of course that’s what you say, but if that is what

you truly believed then you should have become a doctor

so you could dispense FREE healthcare to everyone.

Right now you just sound like a progressive socialist.

If (by chance) you're stuck in the Democrat party doldrums, then perhaps it's time to start thinking Republican, Independent or otherwise. If you study history, you'll find that it was the Democrat party ideology that drove the KKK and its influence in many respects, and much more. Setting the irrelevance of race aside, think for yourself and decide if you're open to new ideas, or are you simply accepting of rehashed failures. And remember, there are a lot of people and politicians out there who will try to make you fail. Prove them wrong with independent thinking and applied intelligence that is beyond their expectation and the norm.

Did Donald Trump serve HIS country for 20 or 30 years?

He had an opportunity to serve in his youth but I heard he actually DODGED the draft by getting deferments...lol.
But as President he received better healthcare than your husband or any other veteran.

How do you feel about that?

************************************************************************************

@Pioneer1

What does Donald Trump have to do with anything other than the fact that 

you lost your potato chip argument?

But since you brought up Trump’s lack of military service, I will remind you

that Biden and Obama did not serve in the military either.  

Trump was exempted for medical reasons, the others never even showed up.

Trump also attended the prestigious New York Military Academy, which is

more than Biden or Obama accomplished.

As to the level of medical care we receive at the military facilities, whenever 

myself or a family member has had surgery or treatment, we all received

world-class care.

The last time my Husband was in their intensive care, he was assigned two 

dedicated nurses, a GS-11 and a Major during the day, and others at night.

I was more familiar with what went on during the day since those were the 

hours that I went to be with my Husband.  

Did he have the same level of care as what POTUS would receive?  Probably 

not and neither would anybody else.  But I will never forget the excellent care 

we received and that they saved my Husband’s life.  That means more to me 

than anything.
