My friend Randall read this poem aloud to me today. It's by a friend of his, Mark Kraushaar, who happens to be the brother of a friend of mine. It's a good read — Enjoy!

I have always loved this piece for its deep commitment to a very specific premise (and animal jokes).
"I reached for that old liquid courage—a dented flask full of industrial-strength Jeff Daniels. Then I lined up those deers, took a breath, and pushed the trigger. There was no kickback."

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks, don't you think?
BREAKING: Listen to this.
Reporter: "Your husband bought stock in Elon Musk's xAI days before the Pentagon expanded its role. Can you assure us it wasn’t based on inside info?”
Representative Lisa McClain: “100%. If it was, we would've bought a heck of a lot more."

Putting solar panels on land used for biofuels would produce enough electricity for all cars and trucks to go electric
The world dedicates a Poland-sized area of land to liquid biofuels. Is there a more efficient way to generate energy?

There's no "training" to "reform" this culture of violence and impunity, the only solution is to eliminate the agency and fire everyone associated.
Before someone whines "but but you need immigration enforcement" okay explain to me exactly how this is "immigration enforcement." It's just thuggery.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.
That is called murder when they do that.
Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.
