“If you saw all this in any other country — soldiers sent to crush dissent, union leaders arrested, opposition politicians threatened — it would be clear that autocracy had arrived,” writes NY Times columnist Michelle Goldberg.

I've given up trying to understand the raw milk craze. Now I'm trying to understand why adults are drinking milk at all. Humans are the only mammals that drink milk after weaning, and it's not even their own milk.
It annoys me that I have to be at the doctor's office on time but they feel no obligation to see me on time.
I follow back but with caution. * You must have a profile that says something about you and it can't be creepy * A photo or avatar would be nice * I will check your posts for porn, sales pitches or just outright craziness If I don't follow you back, it's because of one or more of the above.
Is it even possible for humans to overcome their nature and not repeat historical mistakes?
Anybody have good tips on surviving long haul plane trips? Company sprang for business class but still... 22 hours in the air and I ain't as young as I used to be!
The price tag clearly said $8 off per pound, total $0.99/lb. And so I bought sous vide beef short ribs at Costco today for $0.99/lb. I'm sure the tag was corrected before I got out the door. Better believe I'm going to look at every damn price tag in Costco from now on!
I read. A lot. If I post a quote, I've read the book.
Gasoline today at Costco in Los Angeles is $3.99/gallon. That's $0.50 less than I paid a mere 2 weeks ago. Here's hoping the trend continues and the short-sighted, single-issue voters will start thinking maybe #Biden isn't such a bad pick after all. Because... #democracy #sanity #history

And that’s why Biden is doomed, and the working people of this country have to vote for fascism, or some shit like that
Inflation's back to normal, gas down from $5 to $3 a gallon. Consumer confidence shot up 50% the last year. Retail sales robust. Stock market's up 17% the last three months, higher than ever. Unemployment's as low as it gets. Good moment to be a president up for re-election.🤞🏻
