If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

When I was in Canada last month, the house at the top of the hill across the street from my cottage had a Trump 2024 flag on the garage (next to a Trump 2020 flag, and the other outside wall was plastered in signs that read "Trudeau is a disgrace" so we were all pretty confused about what country this guy was registered to vote in).

I don't think I've seen any presidential candidate signs in my neighborhood, it's only local candidates so far.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

A house around the corner had a Kennedy sign as early as July 4th, but I'm pretty sure it's been taken down since then. Must be the brain worms. Or the dead bear cub.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A friend was just sharing photos of people with signs for Kennedy in western MA this weekend, which, OK.

Our wings are not tired.

Not a lot of signs up here, just old Trump ones and local candidates. Blue flamingos are popping up all over Florida.

The other day, we ended up near a bunch of cars with giant Trump flags and something about Jesus. One dude had half a cardboard cutout above his windshield. These people are not well.

There is one Kennedy sign in our town, but they also used to have a DeSantis 2028 sign so I don't think that Kennedy vote is taking away anything from the dems.

No signs around here -- even local, which I do recall seeing a bunch of previously. Our next door neighbor had a Trump sign last go-round but nothing now. Our new neighbors just moved in, and they are a nice, young couple in whose yard I would not expect to see a Trump sign.

When it became obvious that Kennedy was taking more votes away from TFG than Harris (and also that he was a bozo), Kennedy's right-wing bankrollers have moved on to pushing Jill Stein.

Oh, I did notice when I was at the beach a couple of weeks ago that there were many fewer Trump signs than last year, even. Maybe I just missed the truck with the huge FUCK JOE BIDEN flag, but I'm hopeful he actually took it down.

There's at least one "Trump/Pence" sign here. Someone's living in a time warp.
