Hey Mac, please follow me I do not have a beard (just a few stray hairs on my chin which can easily be removed with tweezers) and you’re likely to beat me in the boobs front. So I’m sure I qualify.
I'm not saying I'm petty but if your beard is better than mine I’m not gonna follow you. The same goes for boobies.

I’m not saying I don’t like Karoline Leavitt, I’m saying she gives off the stench of an old gym sock dipped in raw egg left in the sun whenever she speaks

Well what a nice hobby to have , dipping eggs into old socks. It takes all sorts I suppose. Just a suggestion: you could try chess, or tennis maybe or learn to play an instrument. You’ll save a fortune on eggs and socks. I agree her voice is dreadful like metal trolleys on concrete.

Nice!
At night you speak to me in dreams. Often I cannot catch the words but they still reassure. Sometimes, on the edge of consciousness, meaning filters through:
"What's wrong with you?"
You always did know what to say.

So I’ve noticed as an elderly lady. Same with some taxis etc. maybe designers might take needs of elderly and disabled folk into account when designing public transport.
Still kinda insane to me that school buses are all high-floor

Remind us to speak when the program ends. In the meantime I’ll grab the chance to think up something to say that’s either appropriate or intelligent. Who knows! It may be both. So
Looking forward to a chat.

No one speak to me for the next 11 minutes, 13 seconds— I'm watching the latest episode of Smiling Friends 🩷

Oh Dear why are wankers not allowed here? They’re usually just… you know erm… erm dishonest but without the intelligence to tell the truth,they do and say silly things that are boring and without meaning. They…ermm they tell jokes with no punchline. They’re stupid and moronic. So they are wankers.

There should be an upper age limit for politicians of every party and every position however powerful. I was a magistrate and had to retire at the age of 70. Judges at 75 , in uk courts. We are more likely to have problems of cognition. The same applies to politicians. They should make way for youth
BREAKING: Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will not run for reelection in Congress.
The first woman ever to serve as Speaker of the House, Pelosi’s leadership and dedication to country will be deeply missed.
Thank you, Madam Speaker.

Just showing off. Younger people will not know how very famous this became during the World Cup. I think. Could have been Olympics, not sure. Anyway. It’s Italian opera. In English, None Shall Sleep.

We need some cheering up. What is one of your favorite public sculptures? Millennium Park is a marvelous public space when the weather is nice and I love Sir Anish Kapoor's "Cloud Gate" without irony. It's bigger than you think it is and changes every time you see it.

Great to see dear Maslow’s hierarchy of needs still relevant. I studied this in my sociology degree many moons ago (shh 50 years but don’t tell anyone.)
It simply states what a human person needs to grow in self confidence and respect. Shame we can’t all reach the self-actualisation.

Learned this in college getting ready to be a teacher. People can’t grow without their basic needs being met 💔

I watched that. I agree it’s infuriating mainly because the film tells us nothing about the disturbed neighbour. She obviously has mental health problems which should have been addressed well before she turned to murder. I’m not excusing her actions, I felt she should have been helped to begin with.
i’m watching this netflix documentary THE PERFECT NEIGHBOR and it is one of the most infuriating and heartbreaking things i have seen in a long time
