On the plus side, does this mean that the House will have to come back in session to vote on opening the govt back up (approving the Senate plan), and could that mean they finally have to swear in Rep-elect Grijalva?

What's funny now is that with the advent of voter data info apps, I get GOP candidates knocking on my door because they think I'm a Republican household, according to my primary voting record. I've surprised several with some choice questions and concerns on my front porch, lol.

As an independent voter in a deep red state (SC), I routinely vote in GOP primaries, sometimes there are NO other party candidates running in the general election for that position. Also, if there's a real wacko running, I can vote against them to help avoid them moving on to the general.

Hell, I've been writing about music for 35 years and there are still some fairly prolific bands I have missed out on. I long ago resigned myself to the fact that I cannot, in fact, listen to EVERYTHING. Still gonna try, of course.

quite a few adults could benefit from watching more PBS Kids shows, too...

Bold of you to assume they'll care about real data.

Simple Minds was my very first concert experience, in 1985. Hell of a way to kick start my love of live music that's endured the last 40 years.

Charlie Kirk once said empathy was 'made-up, new age term' The authentic quote from the CEO and co-founder of Turning Point USA circulated online following his fatal shooting on Sept. 10, 2025.

Also, the beginning of that segment is rarely mentioned, where he introduces the topic by talking about how it's used for political strategy. So he's not really talking about either empathy or sympathy, but how they are weaponized. full quote at the end of this: www.snopes.com/fact-check/c...

kind of shocked they had this many locations still; aren't they mostly in malls? So many malls are now dead zones for retail and have been for a decade.

JB Pritzker responds to Trump's threats to Chicago Illinois Governor JB Pritzker holds press conference in response to recent threats made by President Donald Trump to send the national guard to Chicago, in a similar manner that he has done so in Los ...

The full 12 minutes of @govpritzker.illinois.gov speech today, which was superb.

LOL that was a production, I watched them move it sideways through the door, then a ramp that I'm guessing was probably something the band brought with them for just that scenario, and about four or five dudes pushed it up and onto the stage. Met Ben before the show, eating dinner at Yesterdays.
