Whether he did his job is a different question but he understood he didn't have a mandate after losing the popular vote, and he didn't advocate for shooting Dems. The bar has gotten so low.

Same, I thought it was just pointing out the ridiculousness of calling attention to toxic influencers with no insightful commentary. "Quick, let's all go tell this guy he's wrong! It will be so embarrassing for him to go viral and have thousands of followers ready to argue with him every day!"

Purple states have some of the best dems. Unlike legislators in uncompetitive districts, you earn your electoral victories by doing your job. Thank you for fighting the good fight!

If we could just celebrate it without presents or unholy quantities of baked goods and reflect on the most important things in life.
Oh wait that's Thanksgiving.
And Christmas plows right over it 😠

If I ever have to find the mute button on my fridge I will just move to Antarctica and leave my perishables outside instead of having a fridge.

I've been a part or full time educator for more than 20 years and "just show up consistently and you're in the top 50%" is a surprisingly well kept secret.

The thing is other meats don't come with gravy because other meats are good without gravy. Sorry, someone had to say it.

I always make sure that there will be ham at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I love Thanksgiving but turkey just sucks and that's a fact. Ham is cheap and never bad.

Sorry but if it takes that much research and effort to not mess it up it's probably not a good food in the first place.

Turkey is just not good unless it's fried. People are willing to almost burn their houses down trying to fry it. People fuss about gravy so much because if turkey were actually good, it wouldn't need gravy. The entire turkey industry would collapse without Thanksgiving. #facts

That's what I thought at first but now that I have an Apple Watch when I get a notification I can just tilt my wrist to determine whether or not I need to get my phone out of my pocket. So it actually has been a huge help in not looking at my phone as much.

I once had a Gen Z student send me a pdf by printing a hard copy, taking Live pictures with his phone, then texting me the pictures.

In the 90s my elementary school teachers taught us about the first woman to do this and the first black person to do that. I'm sure plenty of them were republicans. It was back in the day when everyone agreed racism was bad. We've made strides in some ways but slid back in so many more.

I wave the flag of institutions of which I'm proud. Do you think any sane people are proud of the US government right now?

I literally LOL'ed at this week's, so hard that it would have woken up my husband if he were a normal person instead of a person whose body cooperates with instructions sent from his brain to sleep.
