Okay, so just sophomoric retrospective ‘humor’ - got it.

Sophomoric? Certainly. But you take your laughs, small or big, where you find them. Somehow, I could easily see Steven Cobert making this exact joke (he's made far more sophomoric ones about Trump in his monologues) and he's paid millions.

On the other hand, his name is pronounced "bank man freed," so who would have thought he'd go to prison?
GAH!

However mean your life is, meet and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; the snow melts before its doors as early in the spring. Cultivate property like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn the old; return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts… Superfluous wealth can buy superfluities only. Money is not required to buy one necessary of the soul.

Meade--I have one I can sell you; never used. I'm selling it at a loss, but it takes up too much room. No reasonable offer refused.

Ok after a couple of weeks of (officially) ignoring and reporting bullshit posts I’m beginning it get left content on my facebook feed. I’m not sure it is an improvement.

The space between al dente and not is a chasm that holds so much disappointment.

I once knew a guy - Italian extraction - called George Dente. First time I met him I remarked - I once met your brother Al. No reaction. It's the way I tell 'em. Or he'd heard it before.

I'm guessing "beginning to get less content"

Is there a prize?

No “Left” content as opposed to the rampant stream of right wing and/or flat earth bullshit I get otherwise.
