in the grid dc

12:25 am

dcseain

ah!

12:26 am

dcseain

being on the way to our third tropical storm in the Atlantic before June, i'm a bit focused on disaster.

12:27 am

rururocks

our whole country is on fire from protests it seems

12:27 am

dcseain

someone lit the Hay-Adams Hotel in DC on fire, on the 2nd floor. That's one of the four oldest hotels in the city.

12:29 am

cybernan

I see we have added dutch the the repertoire of languages

12:29 am

rururocks

this is really sad to me, i understand the anger and I think the prosecutor needs to go for Murder 1 but all this destruction is terrible

12:30 am

gapeach

Wonder how many protesters will come down with the virus

12:30 am

marksdolly

lol

12:32 am

dcseain

indeed, we have, cybernan!

12:32 am

dcseain

peach, a goodly number likely.

12:32 am

cybernan

the widespread destruction is terrible -- a bunch of malcontents taking advantage of the situation.

12:33 am

cybernan

we watched the news on komo this evening -- downtown Seattle is a mess

12:33 am

dcseain

#MAGAisINSTIGATING is trending.

12:34 am

gapeach

15 cities were in riot mode at ll:30PM (last count I saw).

12:34 am

rururocks

ooh found the other de7

12:35 am

Rainiqui

they're rioting overseas as well

12:35 am

cybernan

and in Toronto

12:35 am

gapeach

Do you know which countries, Rain?

12:36 am

Rainiqui

England

12:37 am

SueMagee

Really? Where?

12:37 am

gapeach

Thanks, Rain.

12:37 am

Rainiqui

I think the photo I saw was from London

12:37 am

Rainiqui

np Peach

12:38 am

cybernan

I can understand the rioting in the states, but not in Canada or Europe which is why I think the malcontents have latched on to this as an excuse to be destructive

12:38 am

rbud

the Gov. of Minnesota is on record as putting forth the idea that many of the ones still at it are right-wing activists. Not sure if he has evidence of same or not.

12:38 am

rururocks

finito

12:38 am

dcseain

i'm tired. Happy babbling yall! i'm going to take care of kitchen and sleep.

12:38 am

Can’t find anything on the news here.

12:38 am

yay Ru!

I feel so sorry for the parents of these kids. Unless the parents were there with them.

12:39 am

gapeach

Sweet dreams dcseain.

12:40 am

rururocks

go to bed Dart ! :D

12:41 am

rbud

to me it sounds like something that isn't out of the question - and the "right" is the side with the most money to waste on such scapegoat-creating opportunities, seems to me. The rest of us are the "other side" - those that the right keeps accusing of "being too scared to come out of our houses" - and if correct, it ain't us out rioting, right?

12:42 am

rbud

hahaha! that's my defense of the "left" and I'm sticking to it.

12:42 am

gapeach

Way to go, rbud.

12:42 am

Rainiqui

These aren't right wing activists and these so called protests are not organic. More like hard core Antifa just waiting in the wings for the perfect crisis and here it is....

12:44 am

rururocks

it's really tragic

12:44 am

grannyrose

i pray that you all are safe. we live in the outer suburbs so there usually isn't much happening in the way of protests and rioting. there have been a few protests but they have mainly been quiet. anti-vaxxers and the like.

12:44 am

rbud

then why does the governor of Minnesota think it is? Like I said, lefties aren't coming out and hanging around in crowds. "Antifa" is simply anti-fascist, and is that bad? I think not.

12:45 am

Rainiqui

Antifa is the most fascist organization on this planet.

12:45 am

grannyrose

i must say how proud of you all i am for voicing your objections to cruelty at the hands of the law enforcers.

12:45 am

rbud

anyway, it's obvious to me that quiet polite protesting hasn't worked, so guess it's time for the harder stuff. Can't say I blame them.

12:48 am

rbud

sorry you think so, Rain - I don't believe they exist, myself. I think they're just another made-up thing for the haters to fuss about.

12:49 am

Rainiqui

I've studied them for the past 3 years. They certainly exist.

12:49 am

cybernan

The people who are actually mounting a protest against police brutality won't be satisfied until all 4 officers are arrested and charged, but it doesn't look like that is going to happen --- already they are creating "evidence" to get the murderer off the hook

12:50 am

rbud

funny, that's just about how long the "fake news king" and his cronies have been generating their lies.

12:50 am

Rainiqui

I should have clarified that I've studied the global operation, not just the North American ones.

12:55 am

rbud

Sounds like each city has their own sad stories of racism and brutality, and this was just a trigger. After all the "lockdown" - and the start of hot weather, too, which is a factor, too! Such timing on the murder of Mr. Floyd - the explosion was probably bound to happen.

12:58 am

rbud

it's like the older ladies at the women's marches after the 2017 inauguration, carrying the signs that said "I can't believe I still have to protest this same thing" - I can't believe racism and police brutality is still a thing, either.

12:59 am

cybernan

it seems to me that incidents of racism and police brutality are increasing and I put the blame for that right at Trump's door.

1:05 am

rbud

pretty much agree with you there, but I also blame all the enablers and the people who voted for him. Plenty of blame to go around, haha.

1:05 am

cybernan

we've had a lot of violence against the chinese population in Vancouver -- ugly new incidents that I also blame on Trump -- it certainly isn't coming from our politicians.

1:07 am

cybernan

as I keep saying -- what happens in the US spills over into Canada -- the good and the bad

1:07 am

ursh

racism aside - police brutality is definitely a thing - some people just are not mentally capable of handling the authority they are entrusted with - a number of cases here during level 5 lockdown using both police and army and 2 deaths black on black

1:08 am

cybernan

I agree ursh -- our police acadamies need a better method of screening candidates

1:09 am

rbud

I always wondered if it was a certain type of person who gravitated to police work and used it as an outlet for their particular brand of crazy - or if it was the job that turned them "bad".

1:09 am

rbud

maybe some of both. But there sure seems to be a "type" I've run into over and over.

1:11 am

cybernan

some of them are "screened" out --- those are the customs officers at the border : D

1:11 am

rbud

hahaha! sad and yet funny.

1:11 am

ursh

perhaps being a policeman is the easier job to get and there is no dedication - same with nursing

1:11 am

Rainiqui

well there's one thing we can agree on

1:12 am

Rainiqui

border agents, that is

1:14 am

cybernan

leaving the rest - time to hit the sack. Hopefullly tomorrow will be a better day. Goodnight everyone :)

1:14 am

rbud

really though, the hippies were screaming "police brutality" way back when, and their long hair and attitudes offended the butch cut cops. A whole separate issue from the problems MLK was addressing.

1:14 am

rbud

night, nan.

1:15 am

ursh

night nan - 2nd coffee of the morning here

1:18 am

rbud

sooo, "I can't believe we're still protesting the same things" covers a lot of area. The local cops still harass people like my Hubby, and stereotyped him all the time - long hair, tats, biker, obviously a drug dealer or worse, right? They seemed to think so. Drove us nuts. And now the same two or three guys act like they have it in for our son. So tired of it. Wonder how a riot would go over in a town of 300. :P

1:19 am

rbud

Had one cop pull into our driveway when our son was younger and insist the thing to do was to force him to join the military, that would "straighten him out". I told him if that was all he had to say, please leave our property.

1:22 am

rbud

Same cop "pulled over" my husband on a Cushman headed two blocks to the bar. Said he was drinking and driving without a license. Please. We got him off that one. He was disabled and the ADA (american disabilities act) basically said it was fine for him to use it as an alternative mobility device. Nothing they could do. They FINALLY told the cop to lay off us, after nearly 20 years of obsession on his part.

1:24 am

rbud

anyway, done with soapboxing now, hope no one's offended to the point of active dislike, night all.

1:25 am

ursh

night rbud - cant say I blame you xxx

6:23 am

6:24 am

MollyL

Oh good. I'm glad it's nice down your way too.

7:16 am

7:53 am

Scrabbler

It is similar to German, Mein Herr.

7:53 am

MLFAN17

7:53 am

LuvWordGames

it sounds like a word for a disease, it that the spelling of it?

7:53 am

bichon

Low German and Dutch are very similar

7:54 am

MLFAN17

it actually does sound like a german word

7:54 am

MLFAN17

no luv not a disease word though I thought it was going to be before I got a clue

7:55 am

BzznBea

Both are words of respect for men. Similar to our Mr.

7:55 am

MLFAN17

ohh

7:55 am

MollyL

Meniere's disease is a disorder that affects the inner ear

7:55 am

bichon

7:56 am

LuvWordGames

7:56 am

bichon

sorry, my bad

7:56 am

Scrabbler

TY, Bichon!

7:56 am

LuvWordGames

8:56 am

Uneaixoise

Sweet-tart.....

8:56 am

hokie carla

for a sec I thought you were saying sweet-tart candies have a rhubarb flavor

8:56 am

MLFAN17

that's what I have heard about the flavor

8:57 am

phaeton

Love rhubarb pie!!

8:57 am

BzznBea

It grows like a stalk, like celery. It is very tart unless you add sweetness. My mom makes strawberry rhubarb pie.

8:57 am

hokie carla

anyone here ever had a paw paw? I planted 3 little paw paw trees this spring.

8:58 am

BzznBea

I didn't know you could eat paw paw.

8:58 am

MLFAN17

I always wondered how strawberry rhubarb came to be the pairing in a pie when using rhubarb?

8:58 am

hokie carla

yes, they are edible. never did well in markets due to shelf life. supposedly they are like a mango banana.

8:59 am

MLFAN17

why down yonder in the paw paw patch

8:59 am

We have a loaded crabapple tree this year. Usually there is hardly any fruit on it.

9:01 am

hokie carla

there is a crabapple next door to my parents. it used to drop fruit all in our driveway. I liked to use them like sidewalk chalk. :D don't think I've noticed them in a while.

9:02 am

hokie carla

same house has a paw paw tree in the back yard that I think used to have fruit when i was a kid but my mom said it hasn't had any for years. I know you have to have 2 for cross-pollination so I wonder if they had another and cut it down.

9:03 am

BzznBea

I'm thinking about making jelly from them.

9:04 am

BzznBea

I also have a five gallon bucket of dandelion flowers. Was going to make jelly with them too.

9:04 am

hokie carla

I also planted a tiny tree I got from the same orchard and it said it makes good jelly. I had never heard of it, I think it was mayapple? that one hasn't even sprouted a leaf though, so I don't know if it's alive.

9:04 am

MLFAN17

never had dandelion jelly ..is It sweet?

9:05 am

BzznBea

Yes, because you add sugar.

9:05 am

MLFAN17

my husband and I don't make jams/jelly but one of our favorites is elderberry

9:05 am

MLFAN17

and apple butter

9:05 am

BzznBea

I make apple butter every fall.

9:06 am

MLFAN17

what makes it sticky?

9:06 am

BzznBea

What is sticky?

9:07 am

MLFAN17

apple butter seems a bit sticky in texture..

9:07 am

MLFAN17

But the flavor and the smell i would eat that stuff everyday if i could:)

9:08 am

BzznBea

Could be the pectin from the apples.

9:08 am

hokie carla

all jams and jellies are sticky aren't they?

9:08 am

Uneaixoise

Discovered rhubarb when I visited my daughter in Colorado :-)

9:08 am

BzznBea

That's what I would say, Carla.

9:08 am

MLFAN17

true bzz

9:09 am

MLFAN17

strawberry and grape have oddly become too sweet for me

9:14 am

hokie carla

I love some strawberry jam. haven't made any in a while. one of our renters just gave mr. homie a tiny jar of it plus a bigger jar of triple berry jam. we're not sure what the 3 berries are, but my son is loving it.

9:16 am

BzznBea

Time for me to get busy. I've started another fabric slashing project in the sewing room...Can't wait to see how it turns out.

9:16 am

BzznBea

See you all tomorrow.

10:34 am

rururocks

huh? why do you think he's sick?

10:34 am

hokie carla

I am confused by jwr's cryptic statements. "can't see anything back". and lickety is keeping his list going but has nothing to do with this site, which appears to be running the same as it ever has by Dr. God.

10:35 am

hokie carla

ru, scroll down and read jwr's post

10:35 am

rururocks

me too

10:35 am

rururocks

i just did

10:35 am

rururocks

jwr was wearing sunglasses still and it was late at night

10:35 am

hokie carla

ok, so it makes no sense to you too?

10:36 am

mattygroves

If i had to guess (and this is a guess), jwr tried to get hold of Dr God but didn't get a reply and perhaps jumped to conclusions? But that's totally a guess (no judgement!)

10:37 am

rururocks

a lot of things posted in the chat make no sense to me most days :D

10:38 am

cybernan

an 6 please?

10:38 am

rururocks

to players like JWR Dr G must be watching babble for 24 hours a day... he sleeps like the rest of us do

I figured it must be a babblet, but can't spot it

10:41 am

hokie carla

too many a's to look at, do you know which a?

10:41 am

mattygroves

That an is my last word - it has to be from the A in the fourth column

10:41 am

rururocks

lower right a

10:42 am

mattygroves

The an6/18 is definitely from the A in the fourth column, third row (as it's my last word and the only tile i have ungreyed :)

10:42 am

I wonder if sprite saw that word right away

10:44 am

hurshy

one would think! lol

10:44 am

hokie carla

well, as many times as I've tried antean, that's still not a word

10:45 am

cybernan

it has to begin with ane or ana

10:45 am

rururocks

you've watched wizard of oz too much hokie

10:45 am

rururocks

a + bird home with a consonant in the middle

10:45 am

One of my students habitually starts her emails to me with "Hey, professor" but apparently I can't call her a heyer.

hi, everyone

jan, we watched the news last night (we get seattle feeds) - what a mess. have things settled down at all?

1:01 pm

welki

ugh, i didn't read the timestamp correctly

1:02 pm

welki

there were demonstrations all over canada, but to my knowledge, none turned violent.

1:05 pm

welki

(the biggest one, i think, was in toronto - 4,000 protesters rallying for answers regarding a woman's fall from a balcony while in crisis and with police presence)

1:13 pm

Dorens

i hope the cop gets murder one personally

1:17 pm

harpjane

hello everyone, I hope you are all safe from rioting.

1:20 pm

harpjane

btw if there is a volcano, there is also a poker word

1:38 pm

MollyL

And if there is saliva, there is gratuities...and if there is the red traffic sign, there is what goes with pans...the usual backwords/forwards thing

1:48 pm

Uneaixoise

Ditto Dorens

2:30 pm

rururocks

I am all for backwards and forward things

2:33 pm

rururocks

Of course, puzzles. (Wouldn't want anyone thinking you were a pervert or anything) : P

2:41 pm

rururocks

Nothing like a puzzle to make my week

3:08 pm

rururocks

Actually I don’t care if someone thinks I am perverted. I consider the source

3:11 pm

Although I am a little perverted

hello friends. not loving the top left corner of this grid. At all.

4:12 pm

rbud

the lone M is my7/44 if that helps any.

4:12 pm

Trifioso

the count is very helpful, thank you so much rbud! how are you keeping? writing a lot?

4:14 pm

rbud

mostly reading. And cooking. And trying to get further on house projects - have found so many supplies stashed around the place, that I bought over the years, haha.

4:15 pm

rbud

finally got a couple of upstairs windows installed that I'd bought years ago.

4:15 pm

rbud

how aboutyourself?

4:15 pm

Trifioso

oh well done you! I have done a few small things, but nothing so major. Gardens are looking well, so there's that

4:15 pm

Trifioso

found the 7, thank you!

4:18 pm

rbud

you're welcome! Wish I had the inclination or soil to garden, good job there! The soil here is horrible, and I'm not up to making major amendments, tilling, or anything like that. I grew things in giant pots for years, but there's a huge garden a couple of blocks down - they sell their overages cheap, now I'm spoiled, haha.

4:19 pm

Trifioso

I would do that too, I think! I live on the world's biggest pile of glacier trash - it's frustrating as anything, but I keep at it.

4:30 pm
