Hoo boy! The replies to this are just uniformly golden. Many calls for him to retire but I seem to be the only one adding “or die” to the solution.
It is time to look to the future.
The challenges that face America are many and great.
The Senate must respond with resolve, bipartisanship, and fidelity to the working and middle class of this country.

Haven’t we always been told that the 2nd Amendment exists to protect the 1st Amendment?

TikTok has decided to flood my FYP with posts from these twisted, demented “Christians” who are absolutely giddy about the California fires. They’re all assholes and so is any god they’d worship.
Fine, go ahead and shut it down.

Years ago we woke up one morning to find a blanket of snow on the ground so I turned on the Weather Channel and shouted to my wife, “Oh, shit! Jim Cantore’s in town!” Then I looked a little more closely. “Oh, shit! Jim Cantore’s in front of the house!” Neither of us made it to work that day.

“This is thy sheath; there rust and let me die.”
Just last week I re-watched the 1968 "Romeo and Juliet." They showed it to us in high school English class and it was the one thing that we paid attention to (well, the boys anyway).
Also, cancer still sucks.

It should go without saying that someone who works in public radio for 30 years ends up with all the coffee mugs they could ever possibly need. And yet, I couldn’t pass these up.

Police say they don’t know why the CEO of United Healthcare was targeted in this morning’s shooting. Check the comments on any news story about it and you might find a possible motive. People’s thoughts and prayers appear to be out of network.

#dogsofbluesky fans should read “Laurie” from @stephenking.bsky.social’s short story collection “You Like It Darker.” Don’t worry; nothing bad happens to the dog. But you will cry all the same.
