I heard idiots at the dog park celebrating that "he's completely cut off all drug traffic to the US"
Uh, no Walt. That's only in Fox Entertainment's reports. Not in actual reality.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. Itโ€™s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Donโ€™t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

The editors of the CDCโ€™s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today.

The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly.

We are not โ€œgreatโ€ without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

They did threaten to throw a "submarine sandwich" (what unsophisticated people call hoagies)
Seriously - listen to the sound

President Johnson, in a November 9, 1968 letter to the Smothers Brothers:

โ€œIt is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists . . . May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.โ€

That's one of our favorite sketches since I WATCHED a very thirsty Philly cop hit on my husband once during a traffic stop (she thought i was with his friend).

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

Well, to be honest, it would be permanently at half-mast if they lowered it for all the school shootings.

We should be calling our Republican Congress people & asking "why are you protecting Clinton???"

He thinks - like some people I know - that if you eat right & exercise you can't get sick. These folks are then stunned when someone they know who "lives healthy" DOES get sick or die.

The problem is the 100% focus on shareholder value.

If a company pays decently or does something good for the environment or community, activist shareholders can bring suit claiming the company is illegally holding down shareholder value: "They should be paying >dividends or doing buybacks"

Someone posted on tiktok about how this is the most joyous news possibler, and I replied that it's only the 2nd most joyous news possible.

No one asked what the most joyous would be - we all know.

Hahaha - my dad's cousin was a personal friend of Phyllis Schlafly, and it was a riot. The cousin's husband did the dishes, (she cooked, he cleaned up - fair!) but she also dictated their every move.
Totally the boss in the house, all while spouting trad wife BS.

This is infuriating, but no one is going to do anything about it.

The people have spoken - they love guns more than children

Americans don't care.

Well, they care - they're afraid this will tarnish their precious gunz.

And this was written before the shooting this morning in Minneapolis that killed two when someone shot up a church with children in it.
