Cats, Curious about nearly everything.
I’ll say!
Chicago, NY, & Cincinnati don’t even come close to places like Memphis, Birmingham, St. Louis, DC, KC, Richmond, Atlanta, Indianapolis, etc.
Is he frightened of those places?

The AI bull shit is so tiresome.

My current pet peeve is an online ad I see repeatedly that starts, “The future of an AI hospital will transform the healthcare industry . . . “ (which is as far as it gets before I scroll on!)

(Sounds like a nightmare and hospitals shouldn’t be an (industry!”)

Impeach Noem!
Felony charge the heavy for assaulting a Senator.

This all started years ago when a hardware designer decided he was an interface designer, and then he destroyed the iconic legacy of an entire company and its ecosystem.
Thanks, Jonny Ive.

MAGA Marie Kondo? 😂

They thought so, at least. 😂

When will people understand that Trump really is a Russian asset?!

Let’s form an all sides mutual support group funded by some form of cryptocurrency!

All-sides-ism means we should teach every viewpoint.
I, for one, support teaching my pet theory that SuperCats from another dimension traveled from a far galaxy and rigged the election so Putin won. You might not like this, but it is “a side” and must be taught!

It will be jet fuel … spilled all over the deck of the aircraft carrier that is the United States, and set on fire!

Being mad is fine. Thinking that being an Independant will be somehow “helpful” is kind of silly.

Were you one of those folks that voted for Nader and handed the White House to Bush/Cheney? Or did you vote for Bernie to “send a message?”

We probably need to reform our voting system a bit though.

KJP and Lindy Li can hang out together and tell each other how smart they are!

I should say so!

Every time Mayor Pete goes on Fox News and tears them a new one in the nicest of ways, a half a million MAGAs seriously question their own worldview.

Actually, IIRC she came in fairly wealthy from her XFit businesses.
Also I’m thinking Treasuries don’t do that well in a systemic downturn, so I doubt she came out that flush.
I think you can find the corruption by seeing who bought leveraged puts just before the drop.

She’s awful but they are all incredibly horrible. If you look at the US Presidential line of Succession, it reads like a weird dystopian political thriller! (The only bright spot, no Musk!)

I completely understand.
It’s unlikely we can effect positive change here in the US until MAGA supporters start to feel some pain. They’re fucking delusional. Unfortunately we will all feel pain until we can get these asses out of power.
Hopefully something of the American ideal will remain.

So why the Wolves? Do you have a MN connection? They are a fun team in a fun market.
(Sorry if you’ve talked about this. I must have missed it.)

I like the general sentiment, but it is well to keep in mind the “Bonus Army,” “Prague Spring,” the several “Bloody Sundays,” and the many other violently quashed protests of the recent past. Progress is rarely easily or bloodlessly won.

The good news is that this whole administration is idiotic and incompetent.

On the other hand.

The bad news is that this whole administration is idiotic and incompetent.
