A deeply Catholic woman, my mother insisted we use all of the potato, out of respect for its spirit.
After finishing the fleshy innards, we would use the skins to cover our schoolbooks. The bones were used as writing quills. The eyes were used to decorate the tree on both Christmas and Saint Swithins Day.
The “Thing,” from Flying Saucer News, 1955

I guess I am truly leftist after formerly being a lib, something I believed when I was just a liberal:
That Democrats couldn’t get things done because of Republicans.
Dont get me wrong, Republicans are happy to get in the way when they are able, and they go out of their way to do so.
But I also feel now that Democrats don’t get things done to keep up the illusion that they are unable to force things through because of the Republicans, so their base hates Rs.
I now honestly think that Dems intentionally self-sabotage to maintain the status quo.
From Little Jack Rabbit’s Big Blue Book by David Cory, 1924
