In my lifetime, I have lost friends and my grandparents. As my parents age, and one has end-stage lung cancer, it's hard to watch them get older but it's even harder to watch them die. Please tell me that this pain gets easier.

Gayle King is a horrible interviewer. Every interview... "Please answer this question in 30 seconds, but let me talk for 15 seconds about me." #cbsmornings

Watching news coverage of Dick Cheney's funeral and when they mentioned all of the living former(!) vice presidents were in attendance, it took me more than a minute to recognize Dan Quayle. Remember when it was such a scandal when he spelled "potato" with an e?

Listening to the audiobook #GirlDinner and the reader's pronunciation of "alumni" is driving me absolutely crazy! Did anyone even bother to tell her that it's not pronounced "alumnee"?

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

I’d love to see the memo that went out to all MAGA
“The answer to any and all questions is I don’t know or I haven’t had time to look at”
It’s not a coincidence

Do people in Portland not know that whoever turns on their blink of first has claims to a parking spot? Don't give me a dirty look because I claim that spot first.

We've reached the time of year when I have to educate people that (a) "Falling back" means the END of Daylight Saving Time (not the start of it) and (b) it's going to get dark earlier no matter what.

Congress has provided a contingency plan for SNAP to keep the program going for years in case of a shut down. The USDA sneakily took the plan down. Now blue states are suing to continue benefits for their constituents.

I do think it would be amazing if hundreds of protesters just showed up dressed like ICE. They’d be absolutely baffled, they’d have no way to tell who’s who. They’re all dressed in off-the-rack Cabelas clothes since they don’t seem to have a standard uniform so it’s easy.

Bari Weiss showed her true colors during the pandemic (and even before). This is bad news for @cbsnews.com. Luckily, I don't watch #CBSNews (and I am done with @cbsmornings.bsky.social with obviously-biased Tony D.)

#SiriusXM automatically adding the Taylor Swift channel to my favorites is akin to when U2 automatically added their new album to Apple iPods. After many tries to delete it as a favorite (it won't delete), I gave up. News flash: Not everyone likes Taylor Swift.

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.
