Diehard Cubs fan; lawyer for 30 years; lifelong Democrat with 2 Siamese cats who run the house; is it possible to own too many guitars?

When a loved one is in the hospital & you're sitting next to her bed 24/7, you think "not this time, but there will come a time when I will sit here & watch her die." I am tired of Trump, McConnell, Vance, politics & politicians in general. They can all burn in hell. Only one thing matters - family.

I must be getting old. Apparently, according to my emails, I’ve re-subscribed to GEEK Squad several times this month, purchased multiple Apple watches and iPhones, and invested in various crypto- and blockchain stuff I never knew existed.

Headline now on CNN website: "Iran's new supreme leader is still nowhere to be seen." Duh. I wonder why. The US just bombed his country and killed his father. Perhaps he should stand out in the open waiving an Iranian flag and giving Trump the finger?

To the people of South Carolina who elected Nancy Mace to Congress: You should be ashamed of yourselves. I'm watching Hillary Clinton's deposition and words cannot describe what an absolutely despicable scumbag Mace is.

"When you read the dissenting opinions there is nobody who can argue against them" is perhaps the funniest but also the dumbest thing I think I've ever heard a POTUS say about a SCOTUS ruling.

First, let me say that I'm a big fan of Heart, Ann Wilson has an incredible voice and Nancy Wilson is an amazing guitarist. Having said that, "All I wanna do is make love to you" is one of the worst rock songs and/or worse rock song lyrics in rock history.

Hey Musk, one question. WHO GIVES A SHIT? Should this matter to anyone, the latest population data shows that whites make up about 63% of the population of the United States? Only a complete & utter moron would think there's any chance of "whites" becoming "extinct" any time in the next millennium.

No, the thought process was "Where else are Dem voters going to go other than us? Trump? Republican candidates? Not likely. So, we can screw them with impunity and as always, they'll get over it."

A line from a Harlan Coben/Reese Witherspoon book I'm reading: "The poor want to be rich, the rich want to be kings, and kings want to rule everyone and everything."

Sorry, but this is today's pet peeve. If you're going to post something with a link to a story & I have to pay to read the story, don't. I'm tired of clicking on links only to find I have to pay to subscribe to something I wasn't interested in subscribing to just to read the fucking story.

A friend of mine who works for the fed gov as an independent contractor was told she needs to come in to work each day. So, she does, arriving at 7am, & she then spends all day reading books because there's nobody in any gov offices to work with, and they won't let her tele-commute. What geniuses.

Trump in January: I will stop all government censorship, protect free speech, and never use the power of the state to persecute my opponents. Trump in September: Anyone who disagrees with me should be taken off the air.

Just finished reading Laura Loomer's deposition transcript re her suit against Bill Maher. What a despicable human being, though I did find her saying that MTG carries roast beef around in her pants amusing. What a waste of humanity.

Tried to watch Trump's press conference and started throwing up in my mouth after 5 minutes. He is so incredibly stupid and can't put together one coherent sentence. I hate with a passion what he's done and is doing to my country.

Just watched the Lays commercial for the umpteenth time, the one where a potato falls off a truck,a little girl picks it up, plants it, and grows . . . a potato. Am I missing something here?
