It was Jeff's favorite book. And despite the fact that I was not raised on telenovelae and cannot fully enjoy the unusual pacing, I can appreciate that they got a very important thing right: Victor needs to be slapped in the face.

I guess if it's an intra-THC-industry thing, that's one of way of explaining Fetterman ... who even knows why Cruz was against the ban.

Friend: I'll be in Thailand for two weeks, sitting with a friend while she recovers from surgery.
Me: (thinking of an accident on vacation) oh gosh, what happened?

Didn't Fetterman used to have a literal cannabis flag? He's not even /trying/ to appear like he has any integrity left.

'This' being Tim Kaine's behavior and justification, tbc. Turning the other cheek is supposed to be about nonviolent /resistance/, not curling up and saying 'please don't hurt me.'

I mean, I do understand, what with losing my household's only source of income to the furlough, not wanting to put people through this anymore. But this indicates that we were put through this for /something that was Never Serious/.

Definitely bullshit, in that bullshit is said with a lack of regard for the truth. /How/ untrue it is that nobody in that room cares more depends on how many are in the room right now. I fear that there could be way more than 8 dems and the statement still be technically correct.
