Seriously though, I can't recommend this enough. I narrowed down to a shortlist of five or so names doing this and then practiced one of those with my partner at the time and a couple of close friends before settling on the one that felt right.

What an incredibly petty thing to blatantly lie to your constituency about. Especially when Dear Leader is on record as saying the President is responsible for preventing government shutdowns.
Trump administration uses taxpayer dollars to blame Democrats for government shutdown

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

There are many timely and relevant quotes from Andor that mirror the Empire's rise with current events. The machine of fascism in both cases is one of brute force: achieving desensitization by giving no time to process the unending onslaught of breaches of rule of law and fundamental rights.

Governor Walz, your work to ensure the preservation of our rights as the rest of the country backslides is admirable. But read the room. That exact backslide is why this is definitely NOT the time for this sort of action.
I’m asking Republicans to hold a public vote on banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, because that’s what the majority of Minnesotans want to see.

I really shouldn't have to say this, but dear lord, please do not ask AI for advice on your workout posture. It does not "know" what good form is, nor can it tell what yours is from a picture. It will lie to you. Potentially in ways that could get you injured.
