I would pay a lot of money for someone to take a giant screen to Trump rallies and play clips of him talking shit.

I know, but it would be nice to sleep in until like, 7 on the weekend.

This interview is from 1979.

Apparently, waking up by 6 or 6:30 because my stupid body is on a schedule and we're sticking to it every day, I guess.

Oh, and laundry. No matter what else I have going on, the laundry never stops.

She was 16 or 17, so you're not far off.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist in the least, but the fact that some random guy in the crowd saw the shooter on the roof but not one of the many Secret Service agents there noticed a sniper has me at least open to the idea that it was fake. It's not like Trump's team don't know that plenty of Republicans are just looking for an excuse to violently support their dear leader.

But I agree that it's more likely that someone just snapped.

Oh shit. I don't know why that's so surprising but I think I kind of thought of him as immortal. Shout out to Sweatin' to the Oldies, which was me and my sister's weird hobby as kids.

It's not the only reason, just the first and easiest. Also, they can say they're not citizens all day, but unless they legally revoke it (expensive and difficult without dual citizenship because no one wants to deal with a stateless person), the Department of State knows they are. They think that they're citizens of the state in which they were born, and they want the passport American Samoans get, which is for American nationals, not citizens. They pretty much take real things that exist and try to twist them into whatever alternate reality they're living in.

As for the birth certificate, I'm 99% sure what that means is that they requested an apostille. It's basically a certificate signed by the (state level) secretary of state saying the document is authentic that's attached to certain legal documents. It's required by certain countries, so I'm assuming they said they need it for a non-Hague country and they think that does something a lot more interesting than just saying it's a real birth certificate.

I mean, that probably IS why they were denied. Anyone in arrears more than $2500 receives an initial letter saying to fix it within 90 days, and if they don't, they get denied. In the state I live in, they don't release the passport until the full balance is paid off. Other states might make payment plans. The venn diagram of sovcits and people who owe back support has a decent amount of overlap, so it wouldn't be at all surprising if this person owes.

The Dept of State would normally either send them a regular ass passport, or a letter saying, "Your sovcit nonsense is nonsense, you can either get a regular ass passport, or we're keeping your money and you get nothing," but no point in that since this moron is probably not going to pay their past due support anyway.

I'm driving, so weight isn't a huge concern. I don't know why I didn't think about stuff for backpacking - that's a great idea. Probably because the closest I get to hiking these days is the trail behind my house.

In the mountains? Yeah. That's dangerous anywhere, but there are plenty of places on I-70 where that can get you killed real quick. Lots of curves and steep drop-offs. Not to mention that not paying the ticket is just another example of her being a dumbass who thinks the rules don't apply to her.

Sometimes I get curious when I see the exact same item sold by a bunch of different sellers and I see how long it takes me to find it on Ali Express, or to find the original product they all stole the pictures from. Etsy has sucked for a long time.
