hey TO

11:28 am

aslindy

back again

12:39 pm

hurshy

ok let me see let me see

12:56 pm

hurshy

interesting post i saw on FB: "...saw an interview with a Latino fellow who came here illegally, got amnesty from Reagan, and supports Trump because reasons. he's pretty sure Trump not only won't deport him, Trump won't deport all his illegal friends and relatives because they're "family orientated" and that would be "unfair"."

12:57 pm

Gillie

it does seem like Trump got most of the idiot vote

12:57 pm

hurshy

not to reopen the whole political can of worms, but it's just telling about people having no idea what they are voting for

12:57 pm

Gillie

ok - "uninformed" rather than "idiot"?

12:58 pm

hurshy

potayto, potahto

12:59 pm

Nef

Also known as low informed. Where a person gets their news these days (IF they tune into news at all!) matters.

12:59 pm

hurshy

i mean i generally prefer to focus on the folks FUNDING the propaganda but yeah

1:01 pm

MollyL

All you have to do is look at Trump's choice for Secretary of Defense to see what a crazy mistake this was.

1:01 pm

Nef

Too many of the Republican candidates were picked because they were self-funded because they wouldn’t get $$$ from the RNC this time.

1:02 pm

mael

I'm past thinking this was a mistake. They're getting exactly who they voted for

1:02 pm

Gillie

I saw a comedic interview with some latinos who planned to vote for Trump, and they were quite upset with the interviewer for showing them clips of Trumps saying things that seemed quite racist about latinos - but still planned to vote for Trump

1:02 pm

hurshy

well i think most of us here in babbleland knew that instantly

1:03 pm

Nef

But by no means is it thr “ Mandate” that Trump keeps claiming.

1:03 pm

hurshy

it just reminds me of the Brexit vote, where you had people after it says, "oh it's going to have x y and z consequences? oh why didn't you tell me?" (spoiler alert: they did tell you) or the ones who said "well i VOTED for it but just as a gesture, i didn't actually WANT us to exit the EU, i didn't think it would pass"

1:04 pm

mael

it's just a matter of priorities. Those who voted for Trump decided long ago that he'd be better for them, despite us AND Trump telling them otherwise.

1:04 pm

BzznBea

Hold on folks. We are in for a bumpy ride.

1:04 pm

mael

so I guess we're all gonna learn it the hard way

1:05 pm

mael

hursh, it's exactly like brexit

1:05 pm

Nef

Yeah. My grandson keeps telling me that Trump just said those things, he won’t carry them out.

1:05 pm

hurshy

yeah did you see that one guy on the Daily Show, prior, who said that if you don't like Trump that's cause you're basing it on what he SAYS, you have to not listen to him and watch clips of him

1:06 pm

mael

so how could the democrats possibly convince anyone? even Trump can't convince people he

1:06 pm

mael

that he's serious

1:07 pm

hurshy

it's just one of those freak mass insanity things

1:07 pm

Gillie

and there are a lot of people who think he's a good businessman, when in fact he's pretty much a failed businessman being propped up by people who want him in power

1:07 pm

moolingwa

rehi

1:08 pm

hurshy

earlier someone asked for first te7/28 and then pulled a peri

1:08 pm

hurshy

is it the "wobbles back and forth before falling" one or is there another before that?

1:09 pm

Gillie

no - that's the first one

1:09 pm

hurshy

ok cool

1:10 pm

Gillie

I'm done actually - dropped in to ask if anyone else is having as much trouble with Wordle today as I am

1:10 pm

hurshy

haven't done it yet gillie

1:10 pm

hokie carla

1:10 pm

Gillie

1:11 pm

hokie carla

I got it in 4

1:11 pm

hokie carla

my son got it in 5, which I was surprised he knew it

1:11 pm

Nef

No, Gillie, I had trouble with it too

1:11 pm

hokie carla

you're not really being stupid, it's a tough one

1:12 pm

hurshy

yeah odd one there

1:12 pm

hurshy

6:38 pm

hurshy

6:41 pm

penquis

my missing one was a "one who" word...built on the previous word...

6:41 pm

well the word before the previous one...

6:41 pm

hokie carla

thanks, had the pt

6:41 pm

hokie carla

but only have 2 ra8

6:42 pm

penquis

well there are two ra 8 pt words...

6:42 pm

hurshy

the other two are based on a different ra6

6:42 pm

penquis

and two "one who" words...

6:42 pm

hokie carla

yeah, who knows which set I have

6:43 pm

penquis

one set looks like an alt spelling of the ra 9 root word....

6:43 pm

hokie carla

but I don't have the 9 🤣

6:44 pm

hurshy

like a mouse but bigger + jessica rabbit was a ____

6:44 pm

there is an animated figure in the word...like a Bugs or Road RUnner...

6:45 pm

hurshy

pt for 9

6:45 pm

hokie carla

thanks, both

6:45 pm

penquis

there are 5 variations of those words....

6:45 pm

hokie carla

now need 1 lower and 1 upper R

6:46 pm

penquis

and there are two words that build on the ra 6/18...

6:46 pm

penquis

and an ra word that ends in someone who is between 12 and 20 years old....

6:47 pm

hokie carla

yeah, I think I have all those

6:47 pm

penquis

i am missing an ra 7/28 that comes right before the four letter speed word...

6:48 pm

hurshy

the sound of a knock or a certain sort of drum

6:48 pm

hokie carla

I'm trying to figure out what the 4 letter speed word is. not race.

6:48 pm

penquis

is that my missing word?

6:49 pm

hurshy

d = r*t, that r, hokie

6:49 pm

penquis

speed...how often something occurs....

6:49 pm

hurshy

yes pen the sound is yours

6:49 pm

penquis

ty, hursh...will work on that...

6:49 pm

hokie carla

oh, thanks for the drum one

6:50 pm

penquis

down to two T words...

6:50 pm

hokie carla

now just need 1 A for 5th col

6:51 pm

penquis

found one...

6:51 pm

hurshy

i need 1 A and 1 R

6:51 pm

hurshy

guess i'm missing a different one

6:52 pm

hurshy

different R i mean

6:52 pm

hokie carla

do you have an re6/18 at the end, hurshy? (there could be one more after that since I'm missing the bottom R)

6:53 pm

hurshy

yes, my last r is an re6/18

6:53 pm

penquis

ends with a number...

6:53 pm

hokie carla

ok, not that one then

6:53 pm

penquis

or one who has a fit...

6:53 pm

hurshy

what ends with a number??

6:53 pm

penquis

the others are all parts of those groups of words...

6:53 pm

penquis

ra 6/18...

6:54 pm

hurshy

but we're talking about rE now

6:54 pm

hokie carla

I was trying to guess hurshy's 5th col R

6:54 pm

penquis

oh...sorry....no glasses... ;o}

6:55 pm

hokie carla

LOL, I didn't have mine on earlier and told hurshy I needed 8 P's when I was looking at the bottom R

6:55 pm

penquis

the last re 6 is one we see now and then....has a number in the middle....

6:55 pm

penquis

the other is a pl...

6:56 pm

penquis

or a one who is a tenant...

6:56 pm

hokie carla

yeah, she has it. that was my only guess.

6:56 pm

penquis

those are the only three re 6/18 words...

6:57 pm

hurshy

nobody said it was an re6/18, just, hokie thought i might be missing the last one

6:57 pm

hokie carla

well, to be clear we don't know if it's a re6/18, I was just guessing she needed the last one.

6:57 pm

hurshy

but it is just any R from the right

6:57 pm

hurshy

i don't think you guys should be playing without your glasses

6:57 pm

penquis

still missing te 7/28 (after the part of a playground equipment....

6:57 pm

hokie carla

well mine are on now

6:58 pm

hokie carla

you got the plural of that, pen?

6:58 pm

penquis

are you missing an RE 6?

6:58 pm

hokie carla

I need one R off the bottom. no idea what it is.

6:58 pm

penquis

duh, no...ty....had gotten that word using the other direction...
