  But this year City Councilors say they want to see more outreach into the community.

  Carte blanche to ring every doorbell in the city: just what they always wanted!

  I don't know if the rest of the posters showed up stupid or lost their minds due to prolonged exposure to all the hate-filled rhetoric so abundant around here.

  My intent was satiric: a statement of facts by means of sarcasm and ridicule.

  Because they follow in the footsteps of a noteworthy Old testament figure: Ramses!

  Thus said the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me.

  An interesting article. The irony is, can you trust a tell-all article written by somebody claiming to be a reformed paid liar? IOW, is the quoted article itself the work of a paid shill trying to score brownie points with the moderators? We have no way to know!

  I am still struggling with my depression and guess im looking for a loving "family" to help me through.

  Please recognize that you are in a vulnerable position right now, and avoid making decisions you may regret later. You could be influenced by what is called "love bombing", responding to the attention you receive. By this I don't mean to imply bad faith; it is the combination of new-found attention and your vulnerable emotional state making you react to attention in a ways that do not reflect your true self

  When you are hurting inside and need somebody to talk to, it's too easy to deny your doubts just to maintain the relationship with your new companion. Stay aware of what is best for your long-term interest, and strong enough to follow that path.

  Good luck to you, Kate, and welcome aboard!

  my father passed around 9 this morning.

  he'd been in poor health for some time, but it still comes as a shock to have him gone.

  we are going to miss him terribly.
