I just use Apple Pay at my local grocery store and it crashed the registers. I thought maybe it was a fluke and so when they came back up, I paid it again and crashed the registers the second time. So, now I can’t wait to get to work and find out what cloud services company is down today.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov doesn't care and is just using the police as a weapon like all those in power do while trying to whip up votes. The dems only care about upsetting republican voters, not their own.

I quit Home Depot when they were shoveling money into the Trump campaign. The only thing good about the last election was knowing the HD CEO who loved trump, died before the election results came back.
“.. As the raids have continued, consumers have started to question whether the company’s silence makes it an accomplice to the sweeps rather than merely the backdrop. .. A backlash is coming for the company.”

@durbin.senate.gov You're a coward and a fool. I cannot believe you sold people out again. Just retire, you'll do less harm as an empty seat.

Florida families on the Treasure Coast are paying $500+ a month for homeowners insurance. That’s unacceptable. In Congress, I’ll fight to create a Federal Reinsurance Program, to lower rates, stabilize the market, and protect homeowners.

Some friends were getting rid of this work of art and I knew the Boy's Locker Room at my scho needed some sprucing up. I wonder how long it will take before the all staff email goes out asking where it came from. Guerrilla decorating is my passion.

Uh, Chicago, I know we are currently down bad, but I just realized that all of these ICE dorks can’t even drive in the city when it’s nice out. What’s going to happen when it snows? Also, nobody tell them about dibs.

Live your life in a way that you never end up with an obituary that is a feature article and has a headline like this.
All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

As a middle school teacher, I read as many of the books as I can that my students read. Therefore, I can tell you that the difference between Babysitters Club and Sweet Valley High is like the difference between Bible camp and band camp.
