Now that you've sat through that, please watch this video on animal collective names.

What if a South African is mixed race? Can they come too or do you have to be 100% white?

On this day in 1937, my favorite philosopher George The Wise (aka #GeorgeCarlin) was born in Manhattan. I think many of us can relate to this quote; he was so insightful and is sorely missed; we lost him much too soon (in 2008, at age 71).

NY17 Constituent and local social worker Emily Feiner was singled out and forcibly removed during Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall.

We saw one of these little guys in the woods today for the first time this year. ☺️ If you see one, please don’t pick them up! Aside from the danger of falling, their skin is highly porous so you can unintentionally make them sick from the oils, salt, bug spray, sunblock, etc. on your hands. 🧵

If you haven’t been to Mount Hope Cemetery in a while, now is a great time to visit! Thanks to the Daffodil Project, tens of thousands of daffodils are currently in bloom.

there really is no alternative to tearing up CBP and ICE root and branch

Walz: "This is how government is supposed to work. It's not supposed to be one old man in the Oval Office sending out middle of the night tweets that shock markets into free fall. It's not supposed to be a bunch of 20 somethings unelected and firing everyone. It's not supposed to be chaos."

Course cannot be found. This course may be retired.

FEMA has wiped their website of a bunch of courses- one of which is: IS-368.a—Including People With Disabilities in Disaster Operations

If it wasn't clear yet- these people aren't just ideological, they are barbaric.

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.
