Husband, Grandfather, retired cabinetmaker, beekeeper, failed Pentagon levitator, IO, doubtlessly left of whomever.
Perhaps the news organizations could start running a daily list of govt employees who have been let go maybe a short blurb about their job. Start humanizing the losses.

Whenever I hear Democratic Senators proclaiming they were powerless to prevent this situation from developing, I think about all the dem senators who voted for his clown car cabinet nominees.

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine

There was a time 50+ years ago when I would have felt good about the FBI director resigning, now it is worrisome.

Absolute truth, and it’s a disgrace. The private insurance companies with whom the government contracts pay their CEOs millions while profiting by denying us the care we need. Most civilized countries have single payer healthcare and so do countries we may not consider so civilized.

Every other civilized nation and even some countries we would consider uncivilized have single payer healthcare which removes the profiteering marketplace from the delivery of that care.

Personally I am of the opinion that video games rot your brain. However, so does everything else. In fact, everything else is worse. Video games actually are the slowest means towards your inevitable and total brain rot.

Watching the Cowboys Commanders game right now; there are 13 minutes left and the score is 10-9 and it feels like I’m about to get to the third act of a movie that’s been flagged for violence.
