So like 18 19 years ago I broke my right elbow. It was in a cast for almost a month. Kind of had to learn how to everything left handed. Now I want to use throwing knives but I'm not sure if they'll end up in someone else's yard.

My goodness. Bible was a minor of mine (don't ask) but this guy is so not even close to a Christian and he has zero understanding of it.

Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it, & Charlie Kirk was willing to say it & he got killed for it."

I went once for a coworkers going away party and I think we all left traumatized. But I will go to the grave on this. I do not pay those prices to cook my own pancakes!

I crept in a bush with my binoculars. The line at Slappy Cakes was at least 2 people. So you know...pure hell.

I'm glad I bought new filters for my gas mask and got new camouflage gear so nobody can see me getting an iced Americano.

I walked to the coffee shop because I'm cat sitting and they don't have a coffee maker. The food carts aren't open yet. Movie Madness still seems to be open but I thought it was supposed to move to Hollywood. Other than that it's pure hell.

Do you absolutely know how screwed up it is you're reporting it like this is normal and how absolutely batshit crazy that post was?

Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better."

(The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

Just watching Mike Johnson saying it's hateful and anti American to say you hate fascists. Who did terrible things to him? That's the whole damned point of the United States.

I love this so much. I spent so much time in Marble Falls fishing under that bridge when I was a kid!

Yeah it was practically a national scandal with the press when they caught Biden whispering to Obama "this is a big fuckin' deal" after they passed the affordable care act. In reality all these people talk this way normally. Normal people talk this way.

I vaguely remember a few news cycles when Bill Clinton was quoted as saying "crap" in an off-the-record conversation.

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken. How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

For unfortunate circumstances I've been in 2 separate hospitals in the last year. Kaiser is wildly understaffed compared to the other.

Walking the line at Kaiser in Portland!

Kaiser's CEO makes $7,211 an hour while nurses and clinicians stay understaffed and overworked.

Fair wages now!!
