I thought you kept saying before the primary that everybody should support whoever won, tho’. Did that only apply if Crockett won? (FYI I was rooting for her too but I also took your word that we should support whoever won).

They can control all the media they want. People don’t have to appear on it, watch on it, or patronize companies that advertise on it. Just sayin’.

Four women roller skating down a city street in the 1940s carrying a sign that says “Do Your Part Skate to Work Save Gas”

The interstates next week, probably, when everyone runs out of gas.

The AG can lock down the site with the court order.LicensedContractors who would do work on the site aren’t going to buck a court order and open themselves to liability and risk losing their licenses.(3) if they use unlicensed contractors, even better — can legally tear out all the work. All good.

Hard to do any work on the site or put immigrants there once the MD AG locks it down.Which will happen.Contractors won’t work on it with a court order in place.I’m sure iCE wd. ignore it if it could but with a court order there are practical impediments to doing so they won’t be able to get around.

My mom watched until the Thanksgiving episode where they went grocery shopping in the morning and cooked the entire Thanksgiving dinner in the afternoon, pronouncing it “not realistic,” — even though the ep where Karen performs open heart surgery in the elevator prompted no such declarations4/

🧵🪡I dont even know who is on Grey’s Anatomy anymore but Eric Dane’s death took me back to those early seasons and how motherfuckingly bad/good good/bad they were and that for me, McSteamy’s death was the end of the series.1//

My mom is 85 w mobility issues and lives alone. With OT and PT it is possible to do things safely. (She could still walk—many who live alone cannot).And there are certain types of elderly women (my mom among them) who don’t want a caregiver hovering. They value their privacy/independence.

Look at what happened to Nancy Guthrie if you want to see how much your cameras and alarms protect you.

I agree but I don’t hang this solely on the GOP. The Dems are a sorry excuse for an opposition and the population, whatever it’s mad about, (everything from Gaza to trans to women having rights to too many brown/black people decided the logical solution was to burn the country down.
