Name another song that mentions the word "Cry." 🎶 While Prince's 1st album to reach number one on the Billboard 200, "Purple Rain," hit that top spot on August 4, 1984, the lead single from the album, "When Doves Cry," was ending its 5-week run at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 on the same day.
Not sure what’s more exhausting on the radio these days: the endless parade of slick new Alberta gambling ads promising easy riches while quietly vacuuming up your paycheck… or the provincial government ads reminding you that, one way or another, they also want every last dollar you have left.
Name another song that mentions the word "Me." 🎶 The Beatles showed up on a US Billboard chart for the first time on August 3, 1963, when "From Me to You" made the 'Billboard Bubbling Under the Hot 100' chart, reaching a peak of #116 the following week. The song was the Beatles' first #1 hit on what

“A White House staffer accused of assault by a woman whom the president knew and trusted? It didn’t even seem to register on the president’s radar screen as a concern. To the contrary, knowing what he knows, Trump has endorsed my ex’s bid for Congress.” gift link 👉 wapo.st/44YwTUP
Opinion | Stephanie Grisham: I told the Trumps my relationship with a White House staffer had turned abusive. They didn’t seem to care.

“The president and first lady seemed totally unfazed about whether there was an abuser—another abuser—in their workplace. There was no follow-up from either of them to see if I needed help or protection. There was no investigation ordered. No effort to get to the bottom of this ....
I made dinner for my abuser a bunch of times. You have to play nice while you're planning your escape so you don't get dead. Max Miller is a textbook abuser.
Phang: "The fact that it's taking France and England and other foreign countries to be able to launch investigations, and yet our American DOJ is sitting on it doing absolutely nothing, including not cooperating with those foreign nations, is such a big red flag."

Rep Max Miller made a video smearing his ex-wife as a liar. He claims his daughter’s injuries happened at daycare. He blames left-wing media. And he sounds drunk. I’m not going to share the video. It’s triggering if you’re a DV survivor.
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 4d agoBREAKING: Max Miller - republican Rep from Ohio who is accused of beating his wife and child - is making an announcement on Twitter at 10 AM tomorrow. It better be his resignation.
Alberta Referendum – Oct 19, 2026 None of the 9 questions can actually be implemented without major constitutional changes. It’s classic political theatre: costs millions, generates headlines, delivers zero binding change. Albertans deserve better. Vote NO to all 9 questions → Remain in Canada 🇨🇦
A vote isn’t a valentine. You’re not confessing love for a candidate. It’s a chess move for the world you want to live in. Making your vote based on facts — not loyalty, slogans, or ideology — is the pragmatic way to make it count and stand for what you believe in morally and ethically. #Alberta

Stand with Alberta’s frontline healthcare workers. Stop listening to corporate lobbyists. Start listening to the nurses, doctors & experts who actually carried us through the crisis. They deserve better than being sidelined for shareholder profits. Join the Summer of Honest Discourse. #Alberta

Indivisible ❌👑@indivisible.org · 4d agoControl of the House came down to 7,000 votes in five districts during the last midterms. We can’t take anything for granted this year, especially as the regime threatens mail-in voting, targets registration programs, and even tries to ban states from encouraging people to vote.
