You can a lot of things about ol' J Edgar, but 'bending the knee to the DC swamp' wasn't one of them.
The clowns in this admin are obsessed with daily media coverage and social media criticism. It’s because they came from that world - it’s what they know. They damn sure weren’t prepared, competent or qualified to run their agencies - they did podcasts about them.

There's a small strip mall near me that was essentially built in the mid 20th century on the paradigm 'this is where housewives from the neighborhood will do their errands' , then languished as the 20th c turned to the 21st when the neighborhood entirely emptied out during a weekday.
When I was wfh, I actually went more places and supported more businesses. My current job is full time in an office and it's work/home/gym and the businesses being supported are my top 5 takeout places and the laundromat. WAY less trying new things.
When Covid caused NYC offices to hollow out what they found was that yeah the core business districts suffered but the neighborhoods where people actually live, thrived.
All WFH means is rethinking business districts, not cities.

Yep, I joined well after Mortrin (as a brand name) was no longer officially a prescription drug, but the military typically would still dispense 'vitamin M' in 800 mg pills, while I think advil is 200 or 400.
It's not just you and honestly I don't know how the military will function if they succeed in doing this, there's a reason ibuprofen is jokingly known as "Ranger candy"
Is it just me or is the federal government attempting to push two of the 3 most popular OTC anti-inflammatories out of the market based on no actual data whatsoever.

I just think its a bit weird a stupid WSJ article from a month ago that everyone slagged on at the time was still radioactive enough to create a nuclear discourse event.

It seems to me the difference in the Virginia & New Jersey election results (i.e. Spanberger was a lock and fufilled expectations, while Sherrill wasn't but way overperformed expectations), is that both the Hispanic and Asian vote share in NJ are each about twice as much as Va....

But, my cousin lives in an exurb of Seattle, not that much further forth at ~47.2°. This is looking southwest. I do not think he changed any camera settings and told me in conversation he could see the red glow of the aurora with his naked eye.

One thing i like that Pluribus episode 2 did was "that big world building plot hole? Yep, we thought of that. Yeah, and that one too. If you can think of any more, have fun, but we're just going to move on"

The time for Congressman Bobby Scott to become a US Senator from Virginia was when he was going to get appointed to Kaine's vacant seat around Jan 2017. A 79 year old is not going conduct a primary challenge against Mark Warner, much less an 83 year old against Tim Kaine.

What's going to annoy people is that out of the 4 Vice President candidates on a losing Democratic ticket in the past 25 years, Tim Kaine is still going to be ranked 2nd.

The oddest thing about the past political cycle in Virginia was that there was no Gubernatorial primary. On either side.

When Josh Johnson is playing QB in Washington, you know the season has been cursed.
This was the season wh3re Alex Smith was doing a terrific job until a horrific leg injury, and then the rest of the season just collapsed.
Colt McCoy got injured, Mark Sanchez did too(I think) so Johnson became QB1

To clarify this since I see a lot of people thinking he did a Ron Burgundy: he inserts "say your name" because he's administering the oath, not taking it himself. That's the normal way you do it administering the oath to a group. He's correctly following the script.
Still, boo the shit out of him.
