Yeah, one of the electricians that was working on my house got a little chummy with me one day several years back and said something about how if he was smart he’d go to Mexico and then cross back into the USA illegally so he could get the free debit card with thousands of dollars in the account that we give to everybody coming into the country at the border.
I said something along the lines of, “You’ll have to enlighten me, what the fuck are you even talking about.”
This man insisted that Biden was giving every single illegal immigrant that crosses the border a debit card worth thousands of dollars.
I said, “And do you honestly believe that?”
His response? “Yes.” Because most of the guys he works with are “Mexicans” and they told him it was true.
please forgive an endless stream of consciousness runon sentence. it’s kind of how it happened. i mean i was in dallas visiting my father in law. we were going to the jfk museum because we’re all history geeks and it’s a great museum. so we take this uber and the far right driver goes on a rant about all those out of state protestors being paid to come in and cause trouble and blah blah soros bux blah blah i really wasn’t paying that much attention because i got that look in my eye and my wife started silently trying to get me to stop but she was trying to be subtle rather than sign and i started trying to get me to stop and i was trying to carry a conversation and then my mouth popped off “oh yeah that’s why we’re here” oh fuck i hope he has a sense of humor oh shit he doesn’t.
so yeah the museum was fun. the ride there was entertaining at least. remember Coast to Coast AM? same kind of entertaining.
My second language/dialect is hard to describe without getting extremely academic, but if you know American Sign Language terminology it’s basically all classifiers and no signs. There are by definition no words in that language/dialect, so the fact that when I go stream of consciousness you get any of them at all is a kindness.

Do your streams of consciousness normally come without punctuation?

This isn’t a dissertation. Let them write how they want.
So… Did any of them have this card? Of course not. Because they’re here legally of course, and can’t tell who else might have one.
