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.

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."

Parts of the vigil were removed earlier this month after Trump ordered, “Take it down.” On Thursday night, only the vigil volunteers and some signs remained.

Carlos Turcios, a Tarrant County GOP exec board member and writer for the right wing Dallas Express, is an organizer of an upcoming Charlie Kirk vigil. He was a former TPUSA chapter leader and made intolerant posts in the group's private chatroom. He wants to deport students who don't mourn Kirk.

So we should give President Bartlet the same amout of credit for the state of the country as President Obama, then? Do I have it right?

Hopefully, Democrats won't cave, and instead stick the Republicans with the consequences of their actions.
House Republicans are planning to extend government funding until mid-November to buy more time for bipartisan spending negotiations and avoid an Oct. 1 federal shutdown.
Republicans plan short-term funding extension, daring Democrats on shutdown
Lawmakers might try to add funding for security for members of Congress in legislation to keep the government open past September.
