New app idea: "Halfsies"
So basically I want to buy a McCain's Deep'n Delicious cake, but I don't want to eat a whole one. Halfsies locates a second party who also wants to buy a Deep 'n Delicious cake and we split it.
(Note: the app would also help split non-Deep'n Delicious things.)

I wish the Blue Jays had won. I do. That said, I'm eager to not hear anything about baseball for the next several months.

Maybe Trump wants the US to take over so many places so that as a felon he'll be legally entitled to visit them?

Looks like Danielle Smith has a flag for her Vichy administration. She gives Trump's stars and stripes top billing. She has blanked out our Maple Leaf with a battle cry for oil giants.
Did Kevin O'Leary help design the logo?
Canada needs to stand up to the quislings.

Does anybody else have that sick feeling that Trump is going to try to give/sell TikTok to Musk?
