| Well, BIDEEN certainly tried to start several. Apparently one even involves NORTH KOREA! Other players are CHINA, RUSSIA, AND THE UKRAINE! What does that mean? Biden wasn't as good as he should have been, but now Ukraine will lose their country to Russia, the rest of the Palestinians will be killed... |

| There's artificial smoothing even I can see. Where's the original photo before the photoshop? Because this just doesn't look natural at all. Nor does it look toned. |

| See that is the issue I cannot decide if I TRULY want children or not!! ! I know that pregnancy can be dangerous and life-threatening Why do you think I have abstained from penetrative sex for so long? This does not sound mature enough to take care of anyone else. That's OK, but it's not OK if you ... |

| Once I go to my physical next month and they order lab work (blood test) from there I should be able to determine if I am truly pregnant or not! If you think you are pregnant and have been for a while (took pregnancy tests months ago), do not wait another month. At any rate other than the weird cha... |

| Also, they did something very sneaky that is probably going to be impossible to fight: they invalidated mail-in ballots by claiming that the signatures didn't match because young adults don't know how to sign their own names -- funny how it was always young people, the constituency most likely to vo... |

All of us here represent those who were in the initial waves of being rounded up and killed in Germany in the lat... |

| My recommendation is to never do more than something small and public with a man who has asked you out until you are certain he's not that type. A cup of coffee, visiting a museum, something like that. Always in public, and make sure someone knows where you are and when you're expected home. If ther... |

To quote the very next paragraph after the one you quoted in your original post: Rhiannon is the pathetic yet dangerous star of Sweetpea, Sky Atlantic’s new adaptation of CJ Skuse’s 2017 novel of the same name. Over six episodes she stalks and attacks those s... |

| My impression of the police is not from the media but from personal experience. All it takes is living in an urban low-income neighborhood and being an activist who attends demonstrations for nearly all one's encounters with police to be bad, sometimes very bad. And I'm an old white woman, imagine ... |

| The only time the public ever hears about police, is when one of them does something bad. That is how people's impression of the police gets formed. I disagree with that opinion. I have over 60 years' experience witnessing the police in my community, and the stories I could tell would curl your hai... |

| That said I knew many WWII vets growing up and the common view of protesters was that they were traitors and ungrateful bastards figuratively spitting on the country and men like themselves whose sacrifices gave them the opportunity to protest and go to college. That sounds like Vietnam War veteran... |

| Both were fighting Fascism. Soldiers in WWII were doing it with military violence and Antifa only with property destruction and provocation. Both were doing the right thing. You are really comparing Antifa who lit fires, disturbed some diners, and did their West Side Story imitation with fellow wee... |

| - There's no such thing as an 'antifa' organization; - The original anti-fascists were people like my father: WWII veterans; I find comparing the loosely organized group of street thugs that went under the name Antifa to World War Two veterans deeply offensive. That's what protestors were called by... |

I asked the OP the question in order to understand better. I could guess, just like you have, but it's better to accurately know what she means. |

| Welcome! I would like to make two points: - You can't know definitively if a poster here is male or female (or other); - This is a virtual forum, so why would it matter? It would help to know what you mean by wanting to find female friends. Do you want to discuss specific issues that affect female m... |
