Now updated to be a bit more streamlined and you can customize the number of tokens drawn. I can't remember if you ever need to draw more than one token at a time, but you can if you want to.

I still use Mango Languages, and it is pretty good. I like that it starts you off conversationally and builds up naturally, instead of the Duolingo approach of "Lesson 1: Let's learn to say apple".

I remember using it every day for a year a long time ago, then they unlocked leaderboards and gems and whatever, and I found I was no longer learning a language. The language became second nature to "purchase a streak freeze!" gamification.

I almost quit the first Death Stranding when I realized I was playing for 2 hours and had yet to control my character, but I'm glad I stuck with it in the end.

I am flashing back to people who would put Plato's Republic, The Art of War, and Crime and Punishment prominently on their bookshelves (and Atlas Shrugged if they were THAT type), only dusted when guests came over, but otherwise untouched.

I am not sure about the others, but Durbin is retiring in 2026, so he has nothing to lose. I suspect he was picked for this very reason.

This was kind of his whole presidential run as well. I remember Ann Coulter telling him to his face that he shouldn't hold office because he isn't white, and he just went "ha ha ha, yeah".

Infowars is now in the business of explaining to its viewers why the government sending federal agents into America to attack citizens is a good thing. They refer to the pastor who got shot in the face as a "major leftist activist agitator".
