In this Missouri diner, Warner still means Kurt. But they do know this: If the Supreme Court won't let Trump gut the FCC and restock it with political operatives who force Warner Bros. to sell itself to a pro-MAGA billionaire, you don't have a country anymore.

Brilliant invention no 13,488:
Produce roll down front-windshield with spray nozzles that squirt hot coffee into the mouth of the driver.

Available in small & grande sizes, sponsored by Starbucks. Coffee is shot at 368 degrees Fahrenheit.

Good aim.

* power windows would be an extra-price option!

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Appreciative that Fiona Hill shares her pro insights on the US president and Russia's Putin.

Amazed that US senators (GOP) are so passive and worthless as civic leaders and only serve as boot cleaners for POTUS who kicks them to clean dog & horse manure off his heels.

By his own standards and his insistence on scapegoating and blaming, Trump should either explain why he and his administration granted Asylum to the DC shooter suspect SEVEN MONTHS AGO, fire Noem and Homan and apologize - or Trump should resign

I moved into a little bungalow last week; had my 2nd assistant fully furnish & stock it with the usual.

My chefs are on break this weekend & I just made a waffle with fresh whipped cream 'n peaches but now can't find where I put it because my kitchen is 8425 sq ft & two stories.

Call 911 or sell?

Restaurant idea no. 18,412:

Super Stinky's Cheese Barn: patrons are shuffled into a posh barn to recline on dark red velvet couches so comfortable they scream.
Kind grannies in cashmere on skateboards putt by singing offerings of rare & common cheeses. Patrons cry to get their attention.

Invest!

Hey Murdoch fake-news media! The study you report on here
1. Predicts nothing but is about the past.
2. Is not about Gulf Stream but #AMOC.
3. An AMOC collapse wouldn’t cause an Ice Age.
Incompetence or intent to confuse?
The study by Ren et al shows AMOC has weakened: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Another 12 hour day. Christ I'm tired. Watching the Danish series on NF. Will soon move to Denmark & date a blonde with a large butt that looks like she's smuggling potatoes.

[audience applause]

(scoffs) Of course I'm won't be dating blondes—I'm not that desperate!

My new app, SkateboardUber, allows bored pregnant breeders to earn extra funds by utilizing long skateboards equipped with sails into which the expectant breeder passes gas, powering the sail to drive herself & a customer to their desired destination.

We're now placing the passenger in front.
Pregnancy farts were something else. They made me much more powerful
I just farted so loud the dog next door started barking

New Bond will be Jaime Bonderas who was the under-paid, illegal gardner for James Bond & Q's personal leaf blower.

He will hunt down those who take glee in 007's downfall, including all Jan. 6 rioters & insurrectionists, the antivax crowd & trump/trumpies, billionaires & tech twats.
