One hell of a metaphor. I wonder if it was reworded after the fascists assaulted the Capitol Building.

Not only that but:

There has been a total decrease in the cancer death rate of 31 percent from 1991 through 2018, the report said.

I’ve voted for very few Rs but I live in a state where there’s quite a bit of competition in D primaries so there’s a lot of charisma and foment. I love it. I vote hard left here.

It wasn’t always that way. The 90s were when nutbars were taking over the R party and disturbing things were coming out about the old guard on both R and D sides. Rich pedophiles on one side, rich grabby assholes on the other, and religious nutjobs trying to fit into a hole already claimed by hippies.

The hippies kind of won. Best of all available worlds, but there aren’t many other states that are as okay as us.

That said, there’s a reason I’ve decamped to the Biggish City. I grew up in hard right Qanon land around Roseburg.

My dad died of cancer in 1991, and my mom in 2017, so they almost bracketed that. It’s good to see that there’s progress. 31% is a huge deal. Worth celebrating.

Still got 69% to go though.
