when there was nothing out there but a couple of gas stations, a motel, an RV park and a couple of "Ranchos". Things were sooooo much better back then.

Temecula isn't a place, it is a culture, a weltanschauung, a state of mind and none of the above, where they consider Callaway(tm) Chardonnay to be the epitome of fine wines. Once it was at least a turn off from Hwy 395, but now 395 is long gone and it's just a turn off plain and simple.

Don't recall any, but I was a little kid back then and probably

@Pluto's Republic

wouldn't have known. Would not be surprising, out of the way, just "you know, up past Escondido". S-22 and Hwy 78 both had places that would give 40s and 50s cars fits (also old Hwy 80 further south) so the safe route back up outta the desert was 79, which took you up to 395 or its predecessor at, you guessed it, that place up past Escondido. High country chaparral, scrub, oak and manzanita, etc. It was said that Earl Stanley Gardner had a "Rancho" up there, if you cared; I didn't. There was a 3 way fork up there somewhere, SE to Borrego/Salton Sea, NE to Indio/Mecca and SW-ish to Pendleton, Carlsbad, Escondido, Del Mar and all that. Like I said, I ws a kid, but the family made periodic runs to Indio and more frequent ones out to Borrego, Little Borrego Springs, Ocotillo Wells, and all that.

@mimi

i was fine for several hours after my shot. i had to go down to a place near dc to get the shot as soon as i did, so afterwards i stopped by my favorite dc record store and picked up a few things, including a long-out-of-print cd that i've been looking for a while. when i got it home and opened it up, i found out that it had once belonged to another local deejay that passed away a few years ago. from the notes he wrote on it, several of the cuts got played on wpfw.

a few hours after i got home, fever and muscle aches came to visit and i spent sunday mostly sleeping.

i am doing way better than yesterday. my fever has pretty much gone away and i am down to some distributed muscle aches, a sore shoulder and a little general fuzziness.

i am going to take it easy tonight and we'll see what tomorrow brings.

Six states will see their congressional delegations grow in the next Congress, according to the first results from the U.S. Census Bureau’s decennial survey of America’s population, in what the Bureau’s director said was the smallest shift in any decade in almost a century.

Texas is set to add two U.S. House seats to its delegation after a decade in which the state added more than 4 million new residents.

i think that tulsi kind of has the emphasis on the wrong syllahble there. she's barking up the right tree on an individual level, but she's way off her target when addressing the broader social milieu.

while individually it is best to treat each other with aloha, socially we are in a situation of racially division and extreme racial inequality. you can't fix this by getting individuals to stop complaining about the racial division and extreme racial inequality.

that said, i don't doubt tulsi's sincerity, i just think that she's barking up the wrong tree.

Submitted by Azazello on Mon, 04/26/2021 - 8:30pm

I don't know, joe.

@joe shikspack
Since the George Floyd murder, and the protests it caused, the corporate media has been all race all the time but it's merely symbolic. No policies that would actually address racial inequality are being discussed. I don't trust Wall Street or their media. I think they're racializing everything because they know it increases racial division rather than healing it.
It's starting to remind me of prison "politics" where the inmates are encouraged to separate themselves into strict racial groupings because it makes the guard's job easier.

So her comments are directed at the corporate media?

That's some low-hanging fruit, IMO.

Have you read Hate, Inc.? While the media certainly do have a vested interest in stoking tribal divisions, it is much more broad that making "everything" about race. I think that is a focus right now because ... hum... well, maybe because police are still regularly murdering black people with impunity? And many people are not being as blindly accepting of that as they once were. Protests, and what not. I dunno, that could have something to do with the media coverage. Possibly.

But she's also way off base in claiming this is a factor in "everything" -- in fact, that wording shows that she is either really out of it, or she's being quite disingenuous. Like, maybe she just wants a regular spot chatting with Tucker Carlson and his ilk about how awful it is that people are actively complaining about the police murdering people. Terrible! I mean come on, she appears on Tucker Carlson and then complains about the media stoking divisions?!? Oh and her comments about 'aloha' and 'respect' ring rather hollow after her final acts in congress like introducing a law to exclude transgender girls and women from being able to compete in sports. A law which had no chance of passing, but she just wanted to make a point, I guess. Whatever, she is entitled to her opinions but claiming now to believe that "everything" is falsely racial and also that she is about 'aloha' and respect... way too much hypocrisy, IMO.

Unlike Joe, I do doubt her sincerity. I realize she is extremely popular here, and everyone will hate me for not feeling the same, but it is so hard to watch her and not speak my mind. She really makes me angry. She has been making more and more obvious moves toward the right wing for some time now. This statement from her however, takes the cake. She comes across as very dishonest and manipulative to me. She is singing the exact song the right-wingers want to hear: that racism is not a real problem, and those who are protesting and want it to stop are the ones creating the problem. This is actually a pretty disgusting thing to be putting out there, IMO. But I'm sure Tucker will love it.

@CS in AZ

i agree with much of what you wrote. i have been casually watching tulsi and noting that she has been signalling right for a while. she has always had a conservative streak, some of her past positions have resulted in apologies and disavowals. i guess that she is in a place where she wants to reinvent herself and like any politician wants to broaden her appeal, so i guess we'll see what tulsi 3.0 looks like eventually.

heh, i hope nobody here would hate you for having an opinion variance on a politician. parenthetically, i'd say that you are likely expressing something that other participants or lurkers are thinking. that said, i have a really high bar for doubting people's sincerity and a much lower bar for doubting their horse-sense and intentions.

I don't give the media any credit, nor do I think

they are about social justice. And I certainly didn't say they are!

They do cover actual events that take place, however, such as protests.

Yes, I read the book, of course, that's why I brought it up. Because Matt wrote a whole book about it and nowhere in it does he say that EVERYTHING is about race. If you read it then you know that.

Let's see... there's a lot of Covid 19 coverage, vaccine rates and who is getting their shots or not, the crisis in India, Joe Biden's proposed tax increases, Dr. Fauci says today that the CDC has finally noticed that we don't need to wear masks when we are outside. Gavin Newsome is facing a recall and Caitlyn Jenner is going to run against him. ...

So is EVERYTHING really about race? Really? "Everyone and everything? Or was maybe Tulsi exaggerating a bit?

No, I do not give her a 'sympathetic' reading. Why should we? I prefer an honest look at what she is up to. Appearing on Tucker Carlson of all bomb-throwers, and then complaining about divisiveness of the media, is absurd.
