I have two words for the national Democrats.
Well, those would work, yes.
But also.
Opposition. Party.
The other side gets it.
'Standing up doesn't work' and other milquetoastery mealy-mouthed quislingisms are NOT the message for this era.

My 401k was about to run out and I could type fast. Plus I knew the owner’s brother was an NFL assistant (later head) coach.

Go to grad school for English (help a near-senior citizen out, @umnenglish.bsky.social?) and then teach the Romantics. This could happen before or after I ‘drop out’ of my current work life. I rarely get work calls during a given week.
What's your absolutely unworkable plan to drop out of your current life (or at least work life) and do something completely different?

Inept.
I haven’t seen much of that in my fandom. But today’s 90-plus minutes was just inept, in all phases.
I know there’s injury.
But the opponent was in relegation and didn’t even have to play its manager’s usual style. It was concise and coherent.
Us? Inept. Incoherent. Not a team mentality. #LFC

Book 193 📚 for 2025. Hard for me to believe sometimes that 1999 was his 5th album, that BrownMark and Lisa hadn't always been in the band, & there were problems with the chemistry at the height of Purple Rain. This book lays it all out. Available everywhere, including your local library. #LocalAngle
