Kind of important to remember that the retiring folks voting to cave tonight are doing it for the good of the party(?) so others who wanted to cave didn't have to put their name on it. Schumer gotta go.

Maybe he'd talk to you if you didn't let yourself get filmed on television wearing that ugly jacket, Kevin.
Canadian multimillionaire and Shark Tank guy Kevin O'Leary went on TV to say he's upset Zohran won't talk to him: "I and others who invest in real estate have tried to get a meeting to figure out what's rhetoric and what's policy. So far for me it's been crickets."

On computer, you change which credit card you use on Apple Pay by clicking the arrow on the right side of the box. On phone, you click the change payment thing underneath the box on the right. But on the phone, there's also an arrow on the right side of the box. I click it every time to change card

A NE Revs player was hanging at the field before the girls 7/8 parents vs kids game and asked to play and I didn’t know until after the game so I just thought one of the kids’ older brothers had incredible footwork. He scored twice in 20 seconds and then handed his pinny off to a parent.
