Somewhat true - I basically broke even over years of being a customer (but got more quality/$)

With formula and diapers in the equation, though, I basically get my membership fee every six weeks.

I was counting "things he can't do" and "things that are blatantly illegal" and ran out of fingers.

the Rosetta Stone of dem politics is the 2006 senate primary which incumbent Joe Lieberman lost in part for making out with George Bush

He ran anyway, won with GOP support, dems let him keep his seniority, chairmanships and perks & he rewarded them by obstructing the ACA & killing the public option

In my ethnogroup, it's generational - grandparents' and parents' homes, shoes stayed on and on the floor. Shoes lived in the closet in the bedroom. Me and my siblings all have shoes-off homes, where shoes live in the entryway or coat closet (other than certain fancy footwear.)

Adam Carolla’s big closer for his live show used to a be a believe in yourself pep talk with a slideshow about how he went from making $0 per year in the mid nineties to over $2,000,000 by 2000. He lost his retirement savings in the divorce but kept his Lamborghini collection; he is doing just fine.

Trump’s pardon attorney Ed Martin claims Trump is pardoning his Georgia co-defendants and other β€œalternate electors.”

Note: Trump’s Georgia co-defendants are charged under state law. The president can’t pardon people for state crimes.

Here's the bottom line about Sliwa:

Two decades ago he was a fringe lunatic Republican.

These days he's still a fringe lunatic, in everything but politics. His political opinions are left of the Republican party.

He has not changed his political opinions in two decades.

BREAKING -- Another pro-sports gambling bust.

Two MLB pitchers, Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz of the Cleveland Guardians, are charged in Brooklyn Federal Court with taking bribes to rig their pitches so co-conspirators can make prop bets.

Full story coming soon.

Mamdani embodies a pro-Palestinian politics that truly distinguishes between the state of Israel and the Jewish people, and truly takes antisemitism seriously as its own problem. That makes him a threat to those who want to absolutely conflate antisemitism and anti-Zionism, whether the ADL or WoL.

People forget that being Mayor of NYC is one of the most bonkers jobs in the world. You're running to have enormous barely-checked power over eight million people who are notorious haters and will never give you a moment's peace.

Only an absolute freak would want it and nothing competes.
