Gen X cat lover. I have opinions, some are probably bad and I just don’t know it yet. Please be respectful when pointing them out. US Navy veteran from a different era.

I have an idea for the Billionaires, in particular Elon Musk. instead of donating to political super PACs, use that money to make people's lives better. Feed and house people, build educational institutions. Fund the arts You'll be so popular that people will vote for anyone you publicly endorse.

boulder County, CO mails you a ballot. Emails you to let you know that a ballot has been sent. Provides ample dropoff locations, no line, no ICE, or you can mail it. They send another email saying they received your ballot, and a final email letting you know that your vote has been counted. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I was distraught the last couple days because my cat was not feeling well and had diarrhea before going a full day with no poop at all. I shit you not, funding a giant turd in his litter box this morning made me as happy as a child on Christmas morning.

it's crazy how we attacked Venezuela and kidnapped its leader, and you hardly hear any news about Venezuela nine months later. And then there's Cuba.

Which is worse, kicking someone who's on the ground, or being on the ground and kicking back at someone who just kicked you? What's the point of VAR if they can't recognize that and intervene? #epl #manchesterderby

The WC trophy presentation was quintessential Trump. Infantino won't give him the trophy, because he's afraid he'll keep it. Fool me once... Spain's Captain, Rodri, reads the situation, as he does so well on the pitch, and quickly ushers him away. Merino does the Trump Dance in the background 😂

I hear a lot of people saying the Argentina's team is the most disgraceful, classless group of thugs in football. I think that is disrespectful to Paraguay.

There's a war being carried out by our country on the other side of the planet, and Americans are so distant and isolated from the conflict that we are like, "this needs to stop because my gas is getting too expensive", while people are suffering and dying. This is why the world hates us.

If any Europeans see this, I would like to know, would you rather have your team play in the middle of the night, or do you prefer they play at a more convenient time for you, in 100 degree heat, and nearly drop dead on the pitch?

I've been thinking about why team USA wasso bad last night, and I think I have a theory. Trump turned them into villains by intervening on their behalf. Maybe not for most Americans, but in the countries they play in, and among their colleagues. They weren't phycologically prepared to be villains.

For obvious reasons, we can no longer make Chuck Norris jokes. The mantle has been passed to Zlatan Ibrahimovic. He's not MAGA, but he's a badass that knows karate, and is much funnier. Why doesn't Zlatan see a reflection when he looks in the mirror? Because there can only be one Zlatan.

Nothing flukey about Norway's win. Brazil got outplayed. I can't imagine the mood in Brazil right now. Brazilians take enormous pride in their footballing talents.

Great for Norway. Haaland was already one of my favorite players. Norway didn't need this though, it's already one of the happiest nations on earth. Brazil though. Soccer is what they live for. Without soccer, all they have left are beautiful women and beaches.

Now that the field is set for November, all I can say is that I absolutely hate my choices for Senator. A 74 year old pro-Israel, AIPAC money taking, moderate Democrat incumbent versus a 70 year old Republican who also firmly supports Israel. Feels very Biden vs Trumpy to me.

Messi had a three year plan. Come to the US and play in a league that is just good enough to keep his skills sharp, but also a league where he is praised for being "efficient". 2026 arrives, the World Cup is now on his turf, his mind, and body preserved, and his skills shaper than ever.

I help my neighbors, who are farmers, bail hay. Following a spring with more 90 degree days than rain storms, there's hardly any grass to cut. There's going to be a huge shortage of grass hay in the Colorado Front Range.

If you talk to a Republican, the two words that can't be said enough are. "Epstein" and "Netanyahu". They are like the sound of nails on a chalkboard to MAGA right now.

The World Cup is in the US and the US men's team is actually good. I wish I could fully enjoy the moment without Trump's war, and ICE harassing the Iraq team, and the fact that the tournament is held by an organization that awarded Trump a fucking peace prize.

As I filled out my Democrat primary ballot for Colorado, I realized that although we are currently a blue state, it's been with just-barely-left-of-center Dems, and conservative extremist Republicans. I'm done with the moderates.

Hickenlooper and Bennet probably offer Democrats better odds in the general election. They are old white men with name recognition, but I'm willing to take a gamble on younger, female candidates, who are truly left.

Here's what's going to happen. The US men's team looked great the other night. They will continue to play well and win their group. They will keep winning in the knockout round. Then he's going to attend a game.

Did FOX find a way to unlock Alexi Lalas? I find him annoying AF, but pairing him with Thiery Henry and Zlatan has me dying. Watching them react to his off the wall commentary is pure comedy.

Lalas telling Zlaton that he would take Haaland over him in his prime was peak comedy. I think Zlaton was fantasizing about round housing him in the face. #USMT

Is there any greater way to show love than helping someone who is physically unwell? Almost every other first world nation provides that for its citizens, not the US. Why should I love a country that obviously doesn't love me?

How to ward off the curse coming for the Knicks in game 3 of the finals. #nba #finals #nyc #witch #summerhouse and don’t let a single Knick take a pic with him! Just ask Saquon Barkley what that does to your stats.

What if the Knicks, currently up 2-0 and overwhelming favorites to win the championship, lose game three with Trump in attendance, then go on to lose the series?
