Thirty years ago, Susan Collins promised Maine voters she’d serve only two terms. Now she’s a multimillionaire asking them for a sixth. Her current net worth is estimated to be roughly $6.8 million. Not bad for a Senate salary of $174,000 per year.

I was just thinking today about how many movies and full docuseries there will be on the damage Trump did. Like more than WWII. Like some historians will make this era their entire personalities

I decided to get into English football this year. I didn’t want to pick a team everyone else picked so, I picked the closest team my home town was named after (lol). Today was their first match and they did something they’ve never done in the history of their franchise: beat ManU @HullCity

I didn’t realize Goondocks (Thr Goonies) took place in Oregon. I always assumed it was in Massachusetts. Were there many pirates in the Pacific Ocean? Was One-Eyed-Willy from Mongolia?

I’m looking forward to the switch to Phil Collins behind the mic on the next album. I’ve been enjoying these Peter Gabriel albums but to hear the transition should be fun

I feel like this needs to be said: do you personally need to go up in a rocket to know the earth rotates around the sun, or do you take it on faith from those that came before? Society would still be rubbing sticks together to make fire if we didn’t trust experts.

I prefer Hockey during trade deadline day and the draft because it’s far easier to judge its success. With baseball, you just hope in few years these prospects actually pan out. #BlueJays

So my Bluetooth in my car was cutting out constantly making it super hard to listen to music. Fast forward many months and my car was hesitating to start. Sounded like a battery issue, which it was. Once I replaced it, no more issues with my Bluetooth. If your car is doing this maybe that will help.

So I’m currently listening to the discography of Chicago. I’m at Chicago 16 (1982) currently. If I were to rank the albums, I’d be pretty close to ranking them in reverse order from release date, meaning each album is worst then the previous one.

None are bad per se, just some are more for the background during conversations rather than paying close attention to every nuance or having songs that you want to revisit on their own later as part of your regular rotation.

If I ever meet a celebrity, I want to yell out the most obscure movie they were in instead of their most popular. “Hey it’s Jennifer Aniston from Leprechaun!”

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF. This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy. Every member of Congress must vote NO.

Re: #Leafs hiring Daniel Alfredson, I’m sure he’s very knowledgeable and will be a great asset but it’s weird. It’s like The Flyers hiring Mario Lemieux, it just feels off. I’m sure the Sundin factor is the main reason but still.

I’ve decided to cheer for an English Professional football team. Let me know if you think this makes sense: Since I was born in Scarborough (Ontario) and recently went to England we drove through there, beautiful place. I googled closest professional team to Scarborough:
