My favorite video yet from the bird feeder.

I prefer the Back to the Future 2 explanation for the Trump presidency to what we concocted.

it's really upsetting to read Steven Cheung answering questions about the Iranians without all the stupid insults not sure why he's more respectful of our enemies than patriotic Americans he disagrees with

More and more folks are learning the bike cheat code and it’s making the bike parking situation a bit more complicated. This is a good thing. The more find your parking bikes have to do the more they have to plan for us.

if i was hired as one of Maduro's lawyers I would be going to court immediately with Trump's tweet about a "Venezuela War" because that destroys the lie that he was extradited and creates an opening to question the Geneva Convention violations that were involved in his parade in front of cameras

I'm glad my dad got to see Lindsey Graham dead. A bunch of my family came up in Saluda County. Two of my ancestors served in the house of representatives in the same district where Lindsey got his start. Lindsey Graham was always a voice and vote for war and death. He'll find his reward.
