How does this proposed change not require a constitutional amendment?

I have only one thing to say to Republicans (for now),

Quiet, Piggies

28% is astounding.

I wonder if you're entitled to the $1,500 for every model version that continues to use your material after your date of notification.

Silver lining to this sh*tshow:

we get to shift back to talking about the Epstein Files.

Weirdly, my monthly premium through the exchange drops $16 a month. However, my deductible went up several thousand dollars and my copays doubled.

So, as long as I don't need to use my health insurance, I'm A-OK.

I'm saving $192 a year. Whoohoo!

Sarcasm aside, no one deserves this.

I think he does less damage like this:

Seattle Kroger
$8.49 1lb 80/20 beef
$3.29 1 dozen eggs
$7.99 3lb bag of apples

$19.77 excluding tax

These are the lowest prices available for these items. Nothing fancy.

Dude is completely out of touch with reality.

Pain relief can be slow release.

Not the Epstein files.

Release them now!

The criticism focuses on his appearance rather than his actions. By making him seem a joke, he gets a pass on the truly heinous things he does.

I realize it is an opinion piece, but so much of her story is stated as fact with nothing supporting her claims. Of course we could see with our own eyes, but this opinion piece seems cruel.

The thing that is even crazier about this is Comey posted the shells 8,647 days after 9/11/2001.

Not making this up.

Coincidence, maybe? Weird? You betcha.

RIP American Innovation

"There is no plainer betrayal of the MAGA promise to restore the nation’s storied past than to destroy this legacy of invention. What we’re losing is far more important, however, than the pride one felt being part of that America. We’re losing the country’s future.Β­"

I subscribe to a few DIY emails. Don't ask me why; I don't really know.

Well, one thing I have learned is if the click baitey [sp?] title starts with:

Just Grab a Pool Noodle ..

and, no, no way, no how. Not gonna click. Not gunna doit.

Brings a whole new dimension to chain migration:

Mexican Security Secretary Omar GarcΓ­a Harfuch confirmed a report by independent journalist Luis Chaparro that family members of Ovidio Guzman Lopez, who was extradited to the United States in 2023, had entered the U.S.

I've been accused of being arrogant, never admitting I'm wrong, when, in fact, when presented with information that challenges my prior beliefs and disproves them, I am right again thanks to the new information.

A closed mind is a sad thing to see; sadder to have.

Yeah, I see your point. I was assuming people might realize how stupid it sounds if they say it out loud and change their minds.

Is it a false premise that you can make it everyone else's problem? Isn't it already and saying it out loud gives us a chance to consider and connect?

Honestly curious.

Something I know. Something I have. Something I am.

and then what?

Cogito, ergo sum

I think, therefore I am.

or is it

I think, therefore I think I am.

Self-referential doubt and degrees of trust may be our only way out of this nightmare.
