Yes, yes, I'm old enough to be curmudgeonly. WTF? This timeline kinda sucks, so expect some anger.

My ol' kitty, Cleo. She's 12, we think. We got her from an org that helps place pets of folks who went to hospice. She would hiss at us just for looking at her wrong. I'm guessing she's feeling somewhat at home.

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

He keeps using this word, "assimilated." I do not think it means what he thinks it means.

Kid Rock on Fox & Friends: "It appears that El-Sayed is assimilated ... and I would like to make the point that there have been other people who have assimilated to this country. The Fort Hood shooter. Those extremists that became pilots and crashed into our World Trade Center."

As I watch some of the news and see some interaction with ppl at the Trump rally, I am completely worried that this country is in deep, deep trouble. I hate this timeline.

Good question.

Elon Musk was violating his visa when he started his first business here and very likely obtained his U.S. citizenship through fraud. Where is that investigation?

Q: Did you know about Ilhan Omar's house search in advance? TRUMP: Well, I understand they are looking at her very carefully. I've always found her to be totally crooked personally, but that has nothing to do with me. I think she's a terrible person. She comes from a country that is a non-country.

I don’t care where you started out on the political spectrum If your kid comes out as trans & you don’t become a rainbow-clad, parade-cheering ally & rock-solid supportive girl/boy/enby dad/mom? You were never a parent at all You were a doll collector furious they didn’t stay in their packaging.

In no way am I attempting to be a dick (though I'm sure I will achieve it), but as far as punctuation goes, the apostrophe is used for possession and contraction, NOT PLURALIZATION. E.g. Jack Smith & his wife are NOT the "SMITH'S." They are the Smiths. One wheel, two wheels, not "two wheel's." It's

Donald John Trump is a grifter and a rapist. He is a liar.

Trump: "We had our country that was a joke, that was laughed at. And now we have a country that's emulated. Everybody is looking at us. Europe wants to copy us. Everybody wants to copy us."

Pete Hegseth is the lamest man to ever live. JD Vance is lucky Pete is alive, or it would be him.

I have a bad habit, of late: After I drop off my partner at work, I drive by the grocery store and buy a couple of doughnuts to eat while I drink my coffee. Not all the time, but often. Today, I'm throwing away half a doughnut. Gotta stop this.

Can’t stress this enough, you guys: NEVER talk to cops—esp without your lawyer. If you do have the misfortune of encountering police who request info other than can be gleaned from your legally obtaining ID, keep your mouth shut unless you’re calmly, clearly demanding a lawyer. Now, more than ever!

To be clear, John Fetterman didn’t “accidentally” call himself a lifelong fascist republican, it didn’t slip out by mistake, he was stating truth, he was a MAGA plant from the very beginning and I can’t wait until Pennsylvania voters toss the disgraceful treasonous fraud out of office.

Saw a flat-black, seemingly-new Cadillac Escalade, no plates, no ID, windows entirely blacked-out, big-ass, climb-over-your-puny-car-peasant monstrosity tires driving through the University district of my town. Motherfucker.

💯 sign-on. I was done.

NFL acted like cheating Brady walked on water yet Kaepernick’s career destroyed for being honorable not bowing to a rapist, child molester, thief, liar, traitor! That was enough for me Fuck the NFL!

I'm curious: In the past 5 years, I think I've had, maybe, 3 tire issues where I needed air for my tire. My tire store will repair tires for free, so I've always just dropped by and gotten it fixed. Why would someone need to buy a $80 device?
