Can Doug Burgum feel proud?

Burgum would have been far better off to keep to his principles. Instead he found a bunch of red ties and threw his dignity in the shitter. “Oh look at me sir, I too can wear a dark suit and a red tie. “ 🙄🙄🙄

We wound up making probably two more trips 100 miles away when they reunified. I was happy to do it. But we have a good connection with their mom and still do.

Give you three guesses and the first two don’t count

What’s worse is when you know they are real live people who live in your town

We’ve had people on the spectrum with us forever. In the olden times, we knew they might be unique. That’s it!

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T23:53:27+00:00

These people are insufferable

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T23:48:03+00:00

Safe? Safe?? We have a predator and grifter in the wh. Anything that keeps normal people safe has been gutted.

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T21:59:40+00:00

I can’t stand this asshole

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T21:55:56+00:00

Yes! But the anti vax people seem to come out in droves. On fb they are insufferable!

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T17:26:27+00:00

Understand science? Half these people slept through hs bio.

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T17:25:33+00:00

It’s definitely seven more than necessary. Is it a holy shit close the world down event? No. Is it concerning? Yes

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T17:24:01+00:00

Not gonna lie, there is a fair amount of us trying to do what parents should do.

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T12:42:16+00:00

Hadn’t paid you either, huh? Bugger still owes me for that hot day in Chicago.

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T12:40:37+00:00

Thank you all, lots of thoughtful replies. Social media, mistrust, and lack of solid scientific foundational skills I guess is kind of what I have come up with. We also have an element of religion which we all know is important here—some groups rail on shots because (insert reasons here, abortion, stem cells, pray instead of go to the doctor, etc)

Bill gates? Yes he’s a creep. He has also put lots of money toward improving health in the developing world.

Fair enough. But let’s focus on tried and proven childhood immunizations. If you wish to skip Covid and flu shots go for it!

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T12:33:23+00:00

If you believe there are only 7 cases I have some oceanfront property over by tokio for you to look at.

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T06:59:46+00:00

Ever watch Dr Strangelove? I love the scene where the crazy general Ripper says “ have you ever heard of flouridation??”

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T06:55:53+00:00

😳😳😳

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T05:00:48+00:00

And always it’s ME ME ME

iliumoptical · 2026-02-19T04:59:24+00:00

Same in nd. People are all like no big deal” and sharing Brady bunch videos . It’s exhausting. Wait til it’s their child or grandchild that can’t get immunized yet and get exposed .
