Reddit conservatives were very sad today.
Ok-introduction-1940 Conservative (A user pic of a crown) I now devote time every day on Reddit to refuting leftism and exposing its evils. We need a thousand Charlies to spring up every time once of us is cut down.

Took this picture during my commute today. The addendum appeared overnight on this billboard in Durham, NC (near 70 west and S. Miami Blvd).

And I applaud their impressive well-spaced and clean lettering.
A roadside billboard with a black background. There is a blue, green, red, and yellow logo for GFiber in the upper left corner. The original type is a bold white, reading "Internet for creators & gamechangers." Below that, more text, in neat letters matching the size of the original font but slightly fuzzier looking since it's in spray paint, reads in all caps "GOOGLE IS COMPLICIT WITH GENOCIDE"

Liv, named for Liv Ullman.
A fluffy calico cat (mottled tortoise shell pattern predominance) with yellow eyes lounges on her side atop a brown suede couch. Her front legs are stretched out straight and one back leg with a bright orange toe bean is thrust over as well. Her tail is flipped up, a sassy little pom pom.

This lil goober snuck in the gap by the door. When I scooped it up to get it back outside, it decided it needed to flee and executed a series of daring jumps past cats, a dog, a range of household obstacles, an expanse of carpet, and was headed for the steps when I caught up to it.
A tiny green, brown, and orange speckled frog with dark striped along its back legs. It's no more than inch wide or long, perched on someone's palm.

Whenever you need a lil pick-me-up, remember tight-clothes Sid Cesar (1983).
Sid Cesar on SNL, 1983 Red long sleeve shirt with white shell buttons. Blue jeans. Tight ones. Brown leather belt with a large gold buckle. Gold chain. Shirt open to expose chest hair. He smirks. He points.

This redditor is right.

Biden didn't "sniff kids", he sniffed adult women. He was just weirdly handsy with kids. Totally different thing.
Reddit comment "Its actually insane to me that people need all of this proof to actually believe that he is a ped, but believed in a second that biden was one because he "sniffs kids" Something that is not even true to begin with."

Garrett Watson, director of policy analysis at the Tax Foundation think tank, said conflating the tax deduction with a claim that there will be no tax on Social Security could end up confusing and angering a lot of seniors who will expect to not pay taxes on their Social Security benefits. “While the deduction does provide some relief for seniors, it’s far from completely repealing the tax on their benefits,” Watson said.

No, it provides a temporary increase in the amount of deduction some people over the age of 65 can claim and has nothing to do with social security benefits.
You are misinformed.
The Senate proposal approved Tuesday would eliminate Social Security tax liability for seniors with adjusted gross incomes of $75,000 or less or $150,000 if filing as a married couple. If passed into law, the tax deduction would last four years, from 2025 to 2029. The deductions phase out as income increases.

He wrote about and submitted designs for things based in classical architecture (big fan of columns), but his actual work was mostly squat and square and less appealing especially in its time.
Probably his most known work, The Goldman & Salatach building. Aka "the house without eyebrows"
The Goldman & Salatsch building commissioned in in 1909 but uncompleted until 2012. It's an angular and building on a corner with a white upper half with 4 rows of 5 windows each above a dark stone lower section. The small black window boxes that are attached to some windows were a compromise to add ornamemtation to the building. It's topped by a pale blue metal roof with canted edges, slightly smaller at the top.

Yes, yes, you're the "Hydro Miser", can you stop watching me pee now, please?
A product sticker from the back of a toilet. Peerless Pottery, Inc, Rockport IN. In addition to the tank specs there's a wisened pie bald man with wispy hair flowing from the sides of his head. He's turned to look straight out, over half glasses slung low on his nose and a broad grin on his face. Above him is the title "HYDRO MISER"

My therapy day view is...absurd. And appropriate.
