I tune mine down when I'm going to be away for a while or after the first annoying comment.

Yes! Helium too!

Oil + fertilizer + sulfur

I think there's a big aluminum plant, too!

Well done, all!

Luca climbed on my lap while I was writing that to say hi.

It's a local concern. I don't know what's in it, so I can't fully assess, but the kind of thing it's likely to be shouldn't be major.

What a target! Witkoff meets with Putin, Zelensky, groups of European diplomats, people involved with negotiations with the Iranians, Israelis, Gaza, Trump, Rubio,...

Does he bring the pager with him?

😮

So much gender

They are beautiful, John!

All this was a choice. I can’t get over how all of this was a choice. A plurality of American voters saw corruption, bigotry, pandemic, economic crisis, coup attempt, and criminal conviction, then opted for more.

Medusa says every goddam day is caturday and don’t you forget it.

It's a very standard dye that has been in college chemistry stockrooms forever.

This is possible

He's only able to deal with one interaction at a time. This isn't the first time he's undercut his own objectives, but it is the biggest. We can hope that his court will convince him that some action is the most likely to lead to love from the populace. They all are contradictory.

I haven't seen that last step, but it might be the answer to my question.

Yeah, others have said something like this. It's a real they know that he knows that they know that he knows...move.

They are obeying in advance.

If that's the case, it would upset him if they fit!

I think this is one more round that he needs to convince himself that he is generously accepting their inadequate proposal.

You and I might see finishing things up and getting the credit for that as a good thing, but Trump always needs the domination.

But he doesn't know their shoe sizes.

But how would Trump know if they didn't tell him what their shoe sizes were?

He's outlined how he can do it!

Say that he is satisfied with the destruction and Iran's surrender.

Generously accept Iran's offer of peace.

That may or may not be an accurate way to describe the situation. But he doesn't usually care about that.

Trump said he'd lower costs and end wars. The reality? He's raising costs and dragging us into another war in the Middle East.

I don't understand why, when Trump gives his toadies shoes that don't fit, they don't just buy a pair in that style that fits and tell him those are the ones he gave them. They're all paid well and can afford to buy them.

NBC has an interview with Trump that seems to say Iran is ready for a ceasefire. So, naturally, Trump isn't. But it looks like Iran will be okay with ending the hostilities.

Sick. Also, he's looking very orange

This.

Very much what happened to the supply chains during the pandemic.

For the pandemic itself, many ways were open. Aggressive testing and tracing would have made an enormous difference. Nothing was baked in.

This is just wild

The short peak season has begun in the strawberries on CA's Central Coast. In this 9 hour day, "Irma" managed to pick 90 flats or 1,020 of the plastic 1 pint boxes we buy at a supermarket. (A flat holds 12 plastic one pint baskets). She earns $2.20 a flat. #WeFeedYou

Good point. Israel can't carry on without the US.
