Apropos of nothing, Michael's has a 30% discount for online orders, including pickup. Lion Brand Heartland yarn is soft and pretty and a little over 4 bucks with that discount. Just saying.

armani was one of the few who didn't sell out to luxury conglomerates, retaining total control over his brand and vision for his entire life. this sale will probably mean more consolidation in the hands of LVMH and the likes.

Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

Saving you a click, perhaps: not that Bill Murray.
"That’s why the CIA guards don’t allow cell phones, or even Fitbits, into their buildings. Which brings us back to Bill Murray’s question: Why was the director of the CIA using a cell phone at CIA headquarters?"

Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns.

Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity.

It’s been the plan for decades.

Young men don't want to do the work. In most things in life. Money is no different.
They treat crypto as their get rich quick way out of work.
Young men don't open bank accounts. They are too expensive. They download coin base or Robinhood app and buy crypto. That's their savings

If one party pushes that number higher. They vote for em. Gensler/Biden caused those savings to go down. The demo with the biggest change was young men
This is legit the dumbest thing I've ever seen him say
