Dear DMV, can you please have a camera that adjusts to a person’s height, rather than making people like me tip our head down to the lens thus resulting in a triple chin. Sincerely, taller than average people everywhere.

Kirk made a living by making inflammatory statements, by getting people riled up. I feel terrible for his wife and his children because nobody should have to lose a husband and a father that way. But that does not temper my disgust with the words that came out of his mouth.

Tribal nation flags now flying on "Minnesota's front lawn" The flags of all 11 tribal nations in Minnesota were raised Friday morning at their new plaza on the lower mall of the state capitol building

For those who won’t take the time to read the article, this post is not about the current Ontario admin, but DC, cuz Crown Royal is closing their Ontario plant and opening in the US to avoid American tariffs.

Premier pours out a bottle of Crown Royal to protest Diageo closing an Ontario plant | CBC News Doug Ford said the company is 'dumb as a bag of hammers' for planning to close its Amherstburg plant.

Years. That’s how long it will take to undo the damage caused by the Orcs in charge in DC…

In re the endorsement mess for Minneapolis Mayorβ€”in races that are officially non-partisan, should political parties even be making endorsements? There’s no party label on the ballot for the candidates, so why have an endorsing convention?

Manufactured outrage, plain and simple. Though the Am Eagle folks who came up with the tagline? They are either willfully engaging in racist dog whistles, or just plain morons.

Yeah, I kind of wondered just what the hell that had to do with the whole coverage of the trial. On a separate note, I don’t understand why they had to describe what she was wearing when there was a photo of it?

I find it both hilarious and infuriating how so many MAGA voters claim that Obama made race relations in this country worse. Au contraire, his election emboldened the inner-racist in so many Americans is was stunning.
