A Legion of Leakers sounds like history-defining patriotism.

Itโ€™s impossible not to check out the random stray brick I happen across, and difficult not to pick it up if itโ€™s a nice one. Got an eclectic assortment in the back yard Iโ€™ll have to redistribute this spring after last summerโ€™s concrete work disrupted the pattern Iโ€™d โ€œpavedโ€.

Itโ€™s as if ArtificialIntelligence is trying to say the human race doesnโ€™t matter. Huh.

If Iโ€™m not mistaken, FMLA stands for โ€œFun Magic and Lego Allianceโ€. Hope it works out just so.

Maybe the U.S. government is organizing all of these domestic concentration camps for everybody involved in the Epstein cover-up.

When I find myself in a pickle, I, too, often ask โ€œwhat would jello doโ€, just like the next guy.

An artistic rendition of Wicker Park with some of the neighborhood hits (perhaps bent thru time and space and artistic interpretation) close to the 2000 spirit of the area.

Every Day, the Chocolate We Eat Gets Worse. Some of It Is No Longer โ€œChocolate.โ€ Even as the price of chocolate returns to lower levels, companies are realizing something scary: Americans will buy their fake chocolate.

Every day, the chocolate we eat gets worse. Some of it is no longer โ€œchocolate,โ€ thanks to climate change and corporate greed. #chocolate #candy #MAHA

What is Bonesmashing? Inside the Extreme Looksmaxxer Technique As looksmaxxing enters our lexicon, the practice of bonesmashingโ€”tapping your face with a hammer to shape your bone structureโ€”is trailing close behind.

I would hope that the losers doing this โ€œbone smashingโ€ would move a few inches up their cranium and aim for their temples. One swift crack should do it

In a world where one can wager on anything, I canโ€™t find odds for the likelihood of the United States President defecating in his pants tonight.

Tell you what, man, thereโ€™s plenty of mornings (today was one of them) where I wake up, checkout the light show to the East, and think, โ€œI wonder what Barry Butler will captureโ€.

Just checked Polly-Marquette to see odds that the president shits himself tonight, and I couldnโ€™t find a line. We used to be a real country.

The one milquetoast guy asks his colleagues to play nice and silently protest. I, however, think the resistance should be as much of a nuisance as they can(whistles?) and it would be a great day for the nation if he suffers a stroke on live TV and saves everybody the trouble of listening to his lies
