One of my friends just texted me "Biden is [3 fire emojis]," because I'm not watching, either. So -- 3 fire emojis seems pretty good.

Fingers crossed.

Twitter seems pretty impressed.

The peeing in the bathroom wouldn't be a problem. The pooping is (possibly) a problem, because the virus has been found in feces, and the theory is that flushing can aerosolize it.

So, I wouldn't make someone pee in my yard, because what's the point. I wouldn't make someone poop in my yard, because OMG.

I would ask them to spray Lysol before and after, and to close the lid before flushing, and I'd ask them to open the window. Okay, I'd want to. I probably wouldn't.

Shut up. I'm not in Howard Hughest territory, Teppy. My nails aren't nearly long enough.

Cindy, I solemnly swear that I will never poop in your yard.

Damn straight. You can go to the yard of the lady behind us, who wouldn't let us get a pool when the kids were little.

(Per our town zoning, pools have to be behind the line of the house. We have a double lot, so all of our yard is really side yard. The lady is a nasty baggage. We couldn't get a variance, because we knew she'd fight it, and if any of your abutters don't approve the variance, you won't get it.)

The Biden speech was really pretty good. My brother liked the promise for a mask mandate. Lots of stuff about being the light against the darkness.

He's not my perfect candidate, but he's electable if we can get people to the polls (or to the post office). And he'll listen to people pushing him left.

When we had an outside friend use our potty I walked ahead with a Lysol wipe (hit anything her hands and butt would hit) and she walked out with a Lysol wipe.

Joe Biden was either my 6th or 12th match when I took one of those quizzes (I don't think it was "I side with" but it was something like that).

I didn't want him to run.

I am utterly behind him and think even though he wasn't what I wanted, he might be what we need.

Edit...

P.S. Jill Biden remains as cute as a button. I remember how much I loved when she and Michelle Obama would appear together. I think she's the real deal.

I mean, I wouldn't make anyone pee in my yard. But I have a guest bathroom that isn't normally used, and have tons of immediate neighbors and nowhere private. I have other friends who only have one bathroom but a huge private yard, so...but they didn't MAKE me pee in the yard, though they suggested it? I think less about the potential touch/surface transmission and more about breathing in their house—we weren't indoors at all. Lately those particular friends we have relaxed somewhat (and with everyone) though we are still only socializing outdoors.
