That hypocrisy is old tho. This isn’t anything new. But it is funny how it’s being labeled that way with such a hypocritical definition, because in reality, generating historic wealth through 2 billion acres of stolen land from native Americans, enslaving black folks for well over two hundred years, banning Asian immigration until 1965, banning women from financial access until 1974, all without paying a single red cent in reparations or restitution. What they’re saying about her is more like a living, breathing example of their new definition of DEI “Didn’t Earn It”, which really applies to them.

”On Days Like These” + driving an MG/TC on backroads, trees on both sides, = paradise. If classic cars were crack, I’d be a crackhead.

What a relief (to finally have GC running well on the new server).

There are 2,500 Online Users right now as reported in the section in the left sidebar & most pages of GC are really quite snappy.

Discussion threads like this one, though, the extremely long threads, will still be slow because of how this particular forum software is designed.

I'll be posting some more info on that soon in the new "GreekChat" subforum that I'll be setting up shortly.

I have an idea for threads like this, will post about it shortly. Watch for a new "GreekChat" subforum, that's where I'll be posting it. I'll drop a link in here as well. It will be tonight.

The "What do you feel like saying, right now?" thread is back and should be working much better now.

Is the new software you want for GC really expensive? The one that you said can handle a lot.

Lol! I couldn’t believe he said that. You see his Mountain Dew comment? JD Vance is what’s going to cost Trump the election. I’m still lost as of why he chose him as his running mate. VP Harris has got this. It’s hers all day.

Thank you for shortening some of the very long threads, John



Now taking bets as to how soon this thread will reach 100 pages, lol
