Lauren Boebert being brave and principled in an unexpected moment is one of those "history turns on the most unlikely events" things. It's like Gollum being the thing that undoes The One Ring.

New hip insult you'll be hearing everywhere soon:
"Was this made by Al?"

Especially effective when mentioned while watching a film (especially a big budget one) or listening to the new release of a song (preferably by a big pop star).

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Study for an allegorical/historical ceiling with an oddly geometric pattern radiating from the centre that suggests early 20th-century modernism

Johann Zick, study for a ceiling depicting the history of the bishopric of Speyer (1752), which looks strangely Futurist or Cubist, especially from a distance. Museum fΓΌr Franken, WΓΌrzburg #c18th #c18 #18thc

Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU.

YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

When I say that I can't do something with you...
I'm NOT saying:
-I don't want to spend time with you
-I don't like U
-I'm better than U
I AM saying:
-I'm not strong enough to do that
-If I do, there will be extreme consequences for me
-If I do, I might have a health emergency

Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.

Powerball jackpot tonight is 467,000,000.

So to get to a trillion, I’d only have to win a jackpot like tonight’s … 2,141 times.

To put it another way, I’d have to win the lottery, once a week, every week, for …

41 years

Hot streaks like that? Very rare. Have to be quite lucky. Fingers crossed.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Crockett: When you go and you hit those booths come the midterms, think about which party decided that it was okay to literally be on vacation while people were going hungry in the streets of America.

A drawing of three men having a discussion. The text reads, "Quick question. Is it 'for fucks sake' or 'for fuck sake?' It's for a work email, so it has to sound professional. Neither: It's 'for fuck's sake,' the sake is on behalf of the fuck, so you need a possessive. It should have an apostrophe to show possessive. The REAL question is whether it should be 'for fuck's sake' or 'for fucks' sake.' Is it for the sake of ALL the fucks or just this fuck in particular?"

I prefer the singular possessive, "Oh, for fuck's sake." It just sounds more professional.
