I've been hearing tonight the Dems are about to fold.

I hope they haven't put everyone through this to win, and then lost anyway.

@schumer.senate.gov? We're talkin'a you.

In a map consrtucted about 12 years ago, the highest paid employee of all states but 2 was...

the football or basketball coach at the leading state university. In a couple states it was the dean of the med school.

I've gotten dropped into a PowerPoint project, and I'm exceedingly disheartened with Libre Impress, which -- apparently, even in v25 -- just can't do about half the very basic things I need done reasonably.

Hey; totally off topic: I've been a fan of your dad's since before the first time I saw him live (Sarasota, 1983 or so), but I only just heard the story about Rick Moranis and SCTV like a week ago. Is there a treatment of that somewhere that you like? Was it in Brain Damage, and I just forget? :-}

Well, I've been very happy with my AfterShokz headset, until the cap just popped off one earpiece, and I learned that *they won't repair it* (or even just sell me a replacement Little Plastic Cap).

My recommendation now is "buy the $25 Temu knock off, people, not theirs."

We only use diesel to power any given data center for generally maybe a couple hours a year unless there's an actual outage.

And why?

Because buyers don't have any money, cause wages are instead going to shareholders, making them super/wealthy.

Maybe if we took that profit back to employees...

And in a related story, somebody did a Supercut of your season 7 dance with Josh Malina and it is just the most adorable frigging thing ever. :-)

The White House Peace Vigil, after standing for decades, is dismantled Parts of the vigil were removed earlier this month after Trump ordered, β€œTake it down.” On Thursday night, only the vigil volunteers and some signs remained.

The White House Peace Vigil, widely considered the longest continuous act of political protest in U.S. history, was dismantled by federal law enforcement Thursday night after its more than 40-years of standing.

Yeah, this won't be D's shutting down the government, it will be R's, who are abdicating their responsibilities.

Great that you're throwing in with the R's there, though, WaPo.
