How old is that guy because I'm not young and regularly had to go to Children's Hospital in DC for asthma treatment.

Ugh, I'm sorry about the furlough. Yeah, if I could pull it off safely, I think it would be useful.

Curious: and small Democrat groups in conservative areas planning Democrat branded blessing boxes or weekly food handouts during the shutdown? I'm thinking of starting one here, but would love to hash the idea out with others.

The government is just selling off stuff we, the taxpayers, paid for? Found on Facebook marketplace, from a federal building in Chicago, of course.

Yeah, I have seen at least 4 stories about airlifts out? The double backflip guy just made me feel sick and I didn't even see it.

Has Redbull Rampage always been this horrifying? The crash updates in my feed are just, yikes.

I'm in an area where Trump won 86 percent of the vote. We lined two sides of a city block this morning. Definitely way larger turnout than I've ever seen.

Look, if I'm going to spend my life going to protests in rural Tennessee, I'm going to wear a unicorn costume and dance my tail off.

Old enough to remember when my editor yelled at me for being in the office too much. "This isn't where you find stories! No stories are happening here!" Paying commercial office space rates for journalists to all sit in NYC is silly.

2025 problems: I bought an inflatable unicorn costume but after Trump's 100 percent China tariff announcement I realize I should have bought a chicken 😭

I'm in rural Tennessee and am trying to avoid buying anything new at the moment, but I broke down and bought an inflatable unicorn suit for next week's rallies.

Lol I avoid shaming PR folks (they have a job to do, and that's life), but this pitch is actually the worst pitch you could send me, a person who hates billionaires and loves firm boundaries.

Anyone have a favorite inflatable unicorn suit they recommend? You know, just because.

The Nashville Costco had a pistachio flavor that has been a surprise hit in this house!

This picture is from 1992 in LA and using it in this post and story shows terrible news judgment.

Okay I'm just so impressed at how many meals you're making? I make two mains and that's what everyone is eating all week long, lol. Maynta frozen pizza for date night on Friday, as a treat.

On a scale of 1 to Oh God, Make It Stop, how much am I going to regret getting my toddler a pint sized harmonica?

Yes, my concern is that the MMR will be taken away. I actually got the MMRV yesterday and was grateful for it.

It's such a bizarre/ unnecessary anxiety to add to the general anxiety of "is he okay? Am I fucking this up??"
