You ever wonder about Liberal Arts? Sort of implies the rest of the institution is of the conservative side.

no.  it doesn't.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/liberal%20arts

"The liberal in liberal arts, a cornerstone of the education of so many, has very little to do with political leanings; its roots can be traced to the Latin word liber, meaning “free, unrestricted.” Our language took the term from the Latin liberales artes, which described the education given to freeman and members of the upper classes, and involved training in the mind (grammar, logic, geometry, etc.). The lower classes were educated in the servile arts, which were mechanical or occupational in nature. The phrase liberal arts has been part of our language for a very long time, with use dating back to the 14th century."

So what is next for Trump World Shogun?  Will they just shut up and accept that "election have consequences", or are they going to keep whining about the election being stolen from them and incite more violence?

I would love to see the look on the faces of these assholes who travelled from halfway across the country when the feds show up on the front porch.

I bet my wife $10,000 four years ago that trump wouldn't finish his term. I was convinced that Mueller would sink him. I almost paid after that failed but then the Ukraine happened + impeachment. After that failed, I paid up (its all the same pot of $ so its more figurative). She bought a dining room chair set with it.  Looks like I might win my bet now. I doubt I can get her to pay up, but I can probably work something out of it. I'm thinking power meter for indoor trainer?

If you’re leaning in that direction, just go smart trainer and don’t look back.

Compared to normal North Shore offerings, it's good.  Not crossing a bridge for pizza.

Single Payer health coverage is supported by a majority of Americans according to polling.  As usual, it's the minority (Republicans) that continue block it from becoming a reality.

100% down to the pizza joint. My favorite pizza has pineapple on it but I wouldn't go near a ham and pineapple from dominos etc.

If you ride Seymour and like pizza with pineapple- Scratch kitchen's (Dollarton plaza)  "perfect storm" pizza is pretty damn good.

Scratch deserves a second mention in this thread.  If you're east of the second narrows on the North Shore - give them a go.

Also - yes to pineapple on pizza.

I like the footage of the Trump "protestors" (can we just call them insurgents or traitors yet?) after storming the Capitol building. Just kind of walking around the hall of statues with phones out wondering what to do next.
