Uh-Oh! Grandma is out in the street again...

Posted on 10/19/2025 1:21:06 PM PDT by 2manydegrees

I see all the protesters today (How many are there, really. Inquiring minds want to know.)

The visible age of the people in the short videos is pretty obvious.

Actually, once you notice that, a lot of things become clear. For intsnce:

We could clear up the government shutdown with over-the-counter medications. No need for embarrassment. When you are getting on in age, it's hard to keep yourself regular.

Late-night TV ratings are completely understandable. Bedtime in the care home, dozing-off if you are still with your family, who can watch Kimmel or Colbert like we used to.

Biden was a great president. We all felt like he was one of us- the kind of guy we could share a nutritional shake with.

When you take the right attitude, you have to give Soros the credit for getting the folks out to get a little air in the lovely fall weather. There may not be too many more years left for these folks to enjoy the fall colors in the city.

Love to everybody from Virginia

Our culture was damaged by the Vietnam war which generated the antiestablishment, antireligion, free sex hippies. I think the counterculture would have happened anyway, but the Vietnam war weaponized it by providing a focal point. Someone said society won’t be normal again until the last hippie dies. We’ll know when that happens because magazines like “GQ” will run articles like “The Hot New Thing in Burials.”

I saw an actual demonstration today, circa 3PM. First in a long time, with about fifty people along the sidewalk.

Wasn't about "no kings." It was a Catholic group holding signs to "stop abortion." I guess they didn't get Soros' memo.......

Instead of being an officer of the court, DA Steve Mulroy in Memphis spent his time leading a No Kings Rally.

There should be a Midnight Basket Weaving program, to keep those grannies off the street.

Not having many more years to enjoy the fall colors is a sobering thought for we on Medicare.

The CIA was responsible for a lot of that 60s-on counterculture crap.

The D.A. was probably out there to protect the very old from falls and such.

Well at least they had to be back in their rooms by 8:00 for their extra cup of pudding and joint furnished by Soros et al.

Nah. “Sundowners’’ will get granny eventually.

In the mean time make sure their Depends are clean, give them some Xanax and let them watch “Matlock’’ reruns in the Day Room.

Ain’t it the truth. I’m closing in on 70. Still working, collecting SS and on Medicare. By most accounts I’m still a kid at 70.

Always loved autumn though.

Indivisibles were out in force in our town and being paid for their efforts. Most were 70+ years old.

Shame on them. Wisdom comes with age. They should know better.

More like Antique-Fa! The MSDNC drones who still believe the TV tells them the truth.

I’m some older. 70 was pretty good, though.

My street protesting days are probably over.

Now that you have brought it up, maybe “No Kings” is just another old age death denial meme.

Psychologists (me) can explain anything away if you give them enough time.

I’ll sleep better now that I’ve got TDS all figured out.
