It's why god/allah/zeus/flying spaghetti monster created the mute button. And ads give me a chance to make a quick sandwich.

Earn more...I wonder what would happen if someone earned the Honorable Senator Husted's money via. crime against him. Would he approve of that method of earning more? (I would never do it, don't know how anyway, but an enterprising, intelligent individual ought to figure out a way.)

A two-year-old's mind in a 98-year-old body. DJT is the most extreme bullshitter the world has ever seen, and probably ever will see.

A liar knows the truth but chooses to lie. A bullshitter neither knows nor cares about the truth. What comes out of his mouth is constant self-gratification. It may confirm or contradict the previous sentence; that is immaterial. It is the ultimate in the Orwellian concept of "doublethink".

Still unsure exactly what "does me", but: her lyrics are more conversational than most (vocabulary is amazing) and are better poetry than most songs IMO. And she's excellent at adding melody to the poetry.

Bottom line: her work captured my interest before I knew anything about it, or her.

...and shortly after I caught all of Our Song. This time I looked up those words and was surprised to find that both were from the same artist.

Point being: unaware of who it was, nonetheless her music resonated with me, more strongly than any artist/group since my soft-rock days, sixty years ago.

Almost 20 years ago I heard the last half of "Our Song" on the radio. No idea of the title nor artist...but my first thought was "Hey, someone knows how to do a simple rollicking-fun song!" It brought a smile to my face.

Some time later I heard "You Belong With Me". Again, didn't know the artist...

Leavitt will go wherever DJToddler goes. Miller, Noem, and Kash likely have their own plans. But Whiskey Pete surely thinks he'd never be shoved against the wall and offered a last shot of Jack. The Whizzer of Oz and RFKWormbrain? Oh, their brilliance will save them from The People's Wrath. /s

CAPITAL idea! But include all those who demand that there be no limits whatsoever on guns.

You'd need to use the Super Bowl system: McConnell Massacre IV; Charlie Kirk Firestorm XII; Rubio Deathtrap XXIV; Romney BulletHail LXXV, etc.

And she is fully dedicated to making her fans happy, supporting them, giving them what they want. Because they've made her what she is today. And she knows and appreciates it.

Jeebus gave up his weekend for our sins. And not even the entire weekend, just Friday night thru Sunday morning, right? Though he missed barhopping Friday & Saturday nights, so there's that.

He is NOT a moron! See Wikipedia for these (old-time) designations:

Normal, IQ > 75

Moron, IQ = 51 to 75

Imbecile, IQ = 26 to 50

Idiot, IQ = 0 to 25

MAGAt, IQ < 0

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Depends on the location and probably other factors...I taught nursing students at university up to about eight years ago. During 30 years at that university I watched the slow decline from three 3-hr courses to one 5-hr watered-down course. It was similar at the other state universities here.

45 years ago when my SIL got her BS, she and other nursing students had to take the same two-semester majors-level freshman chemistry that MD/vet/dental students took.

Today many/most take one semester of watered-down (reduced math) chem course, often designed specifically for nursing.

At flea markets one can often find hundreds of DVDs and BluRays for a couple bucks. A bit of a gamble as some are unplayable, but worth the risk.

Well...a colleague once mentioned to me that you could loose a tooth on a really good bagel. I don't know if it's true since apparently I've never had one.

Y'know, half a century ago I thought like this. It took five years of grad school and study, a couple of OBGYNs who had no axe to grind, and years away from the religious indoctrination of my childhood to change my mind.

The history of religion's views on abortion is...interesting.

A Super Bowl without rules would be interesting...it'd have to be called Calvinball, right?😁

Respond "Oh, even if we wanted more kids we'd adopt anyway. Too many children in foster homes, waiting to be adopted."

Somewhere there's a list of US physicians who are far more willing than most to do a hysterectomy. My daughter plans to visit one such.
