I love it when science does its thing. Remember, the word comes from the Greek for "knowing." How long until someone denies we even have Mars rovers is an open question, but it seems certain to happen

My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law.
Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it.
No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.
That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.

Gasoline price hit $2.29 today in our town. Wrong on so many levels, but interesting that when I filled up my family's VW bus in 1969 for a date, the cost was about the same in real terms. My question: when do we tumble to the con they are putting over on the REAL cost of oil?

I've used bookshop.org for a while now to (a) direct money to local bookstores when I buy books online (I live in the boonies) and (b) avoid sending a dime to Jeff Bezos. Now Andy Borowitz is joining the bandwagon:

I remember when we elected Presidents who care about other human beings, near and far. I miss those times.
Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?
Character isn't something you tell people about.
It's something you live.

The cosplayers with assault weapons are flocking to ICE like flies to honey. And we can see that's exactly who Ice Barbie wants with her on those costumed photo ops she loves. 🤮

This is a beautiful new locker room at St Pius in Kansas City. They are a private religious school that accepts taxpayer vouchers for partial tuition.
Anyway, the kids at the public school down the road from me learn to run track when they go to track meets — they don’t have a track of their own.
