Girl unhappy with Mom's cooking

dimanche 29 mars 2020

First saw this piece on Hawaii News Now on Friday morning (3/27/20). Found the link from doing a search on the web.

In essence a little girl is very unhappy with not going out since the places they tend to go has been closed down and is not happy with eating her mom's cooking.

Link is here.

Note: It might start off with a preview to a cable series if not some other kind of commercial content.

I kind of noticed that Groups under Community is no longer listed. Any reason why it is no longer available?

2020 Census

Earlier in month (March 2020) I received two envelopes from the 2020 Census. The first envelope was slightly larger than the standard letter size while the second was a standard size envelope. Figured the first one was the actual Census form while the second was reminder or something like that. I didn't open either one until today (3/26/20) since I had free time to deal with the Census.

Turns out both of them were invitations to go to a web site and an ID to use when entering the census information (both had the same information).

I finished mines in about 10 to 15 minutes. It wasn't that intense compared to the 1990 Census (my first one). It didn't ask if you worked or your income, but rather if you reside somewhere else part time.

kapuna Thursday at Foodland

So Mom insisted on going this morning.
Got there at 7:30a, and big crowed.
One of the workers said there was a line at 6:00am outside the door.
They were letting anyone in, not only kapuna.
So it really didn't do any good.
It seemed to attract all the rude, inconsiderate, obnoxious, selfish, kapuna from the area.
Shelves were a little empty.
TP, rice, bleach, not to be found.
A worker brought out a cart of rice and one kapuna guy started to take more than one bag.
He was stopped. One bag per customer.
It was like flies to a pile of ****.
Pushing and shoving to get a bag.
social distancing was working great there.
To me, it was a waste of time.
Just go at your normal time.
Probably still have crowds, but less kapuna.

Stranger in a strange land

mercredi 11 mars 2020

Hi!

A few questions for all. How do you feel you are perceived and treated by others in other countries?

I am not Hawaiian nor have ties to the island, but a memory from a few years ago has made me curious on something. Back in 2017 I had to leave my country for college. I'm Mexican, and the country I went to is Spain. Though part of my family has Spanish roots, I was seen and treated as either someone exotic or someone ignorant. A woman once even said to my face, after learning of my Spanish last name, "Oh, there is some good blood in you, you're alright."

Despite the negative, there were also very nice people, but a lot of the time it felt as if they only felt interest due to my background and lost it entirely when I did not spoke of culture or history.

So, I wanted to ask, to all of you who have lived or still live far from home, do you ever feel treated differently? I'm not sure I am wording things right so if anything needs clarification please let me know.

!!socialism!!

samedi 7 mars 2020

another tired yet successful screed by the never-right is that Socialism is the same thing as Communism and anything that ends in ism is very bad, so of course traitor trumplodytes will be dredging up their BS tropes again if Sanders takes the lead from Biden just like Burisma is being regurgitated now. it's all scare tactics for dummies, and it works all too well, even tho us Dem Socialist Liberals made America great with our historic policies for 50yrs, then Socialism began being corrupted in the US to of course serve only the wealthy, politicians and corporations, just like they flipped the tax codes to screw working America and give it all to the rich ...who of course needs more massive tax cuts cos that's now The American Way. traitor trump's latest scam is to up his earnings by handing businesses hurt by the Coronavirus yuge 'relief'. meanwhile, making sure the virus becomes an epidemic, gee it's almost as if he planned it this way... https://www.washingtonpost.com/busin...nnNx7gBwAH0cQk

TMT arguments?

jeudi 5 mars 2020

The community is really split about TMT. How does your family handle this?

I like listening to both sides - that's how you learn, how you build bridges. But most folks seem polarized, 100% one way or the other, minds and ears closed, and there's no discussion possible. I support the protestors, but when I mention that to some people they act like I took a dump in their plate lunch. TMT seems like politics and religion, so another highly emotional topic that's best avoided.

Landlording

Anyone out there a landlord? I just became one and learning the ropes with a bad tenant on Section 8. I read the eviction requires 45 days here, 30 on the mainland. Also, evictions must go through court. Termination of lease does not. Any insights?

Bernie Sanders Isn't Barry Sanders

https://news.yahoo.com/garth-brooks-...161533711.html

How could people in Detroit confused Bernie Sanders with Barry Sanders? Barry Sanders was an all time great Hall of Fame running back for the Detroit Lions. Is Michigan a swing state? The state of Michigan would determine who becomes president.
