“Independence” Day, 2025

Please let there be reason to celebrate in the years to come. 🙏
Excellent summary.
Dick Cheney’s legacy is that he turned 9/11 from a national tragedy into a global disaster. He did so through a mixture of arrogance, stupidity and greed and blighted the last quarter century.
You clearly have a third-grader’s understanding of accounting and it’s not my job to educate you. Look up “accrued payroll.”

Or not. IDGAS.
The word “payroll” has a definition and it includes not just base pay (the number you want to use), but also bonuses, deferred payments, options, buyouts, luxury taxes, and probably more.

Point is: the Dodgers have had, and will likely continue to have, the highest *payroll * in MLB for some time.
You just wanna pretend like bonuses and deferred payments don’t exist? OK. 🙄
You’re right that there’s no need to make it up, at least: they’ve lead this category for several years and will likely continue to until at least 2029, based on current status.
“Black is white, up is down, war is peace, and 2+2=5,” he continued.
In my experience, MOST people who don’t consider themselves “Christian” are better people than those who do.
*instinctively

(And fuck BlueSky for not having an Edit feature yet.)
When the last guy sarcastically told her, “Thank you, ma’am,” my inner voice inductively responded, “Fuck you, too,” exactly as she was saying, “Thank you, too.”

I know it’s not productive, but I would have loved to see him double-take and ask, “What’d you say?”
Also possible that they’re quoting Pfc. Reed’s report verbatim, and that he was the inconsistent censor?

But, no, probably not.
It’s safer for the pedophiles that way
Yes, the name Donald Trump is practically synonymous with quantum mechanics, artificial intelligence, and nuclear fusion.

He’s kind of like a real-life Reed Richards (but less stretchy).
I just came up with a new starter word both times.
Assuming he was posting from Japan, the date should be 08 Dec 41. ☝️🤓
For the first six-plus months the excuse was that it was still the “Biden economy” (despite trend lines all reversing dramatically beginning in Jan.)

But recently he’s just been straight up lying about how great the economy is and how grocery prices are at record lows and inflation is down 1700%.
“Flooding the zone.”

Honestly, the strategy is working. No other President would’ve survived even one of these.

But when you commit an impeachable offense every other day, then demolish the East Wing just for funsies, no one can even keep track.
Last week:

-Trump pardoned Binance's founder after a $2B deal with his crypto firm
-Hegseth awards a DoD contract to a Don Jr.-backed firm
-Trump orders his DOJ cronies pay him $230M in "compensation"

We must not become numb to this. https://popular.info/p/3-scandals-in-4-days-that-would-define

I don’t know if it’s the booze or the 7.5 extra innings, out just that that post is actually uninterpretable (is that even a word?) but I’m hanging a hard time interpreting this.
I can hear the call in my head.
Who even is the broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted, normal-sized-hands-having man in that picture?
WTF is that even supposed to mean?

So we just don’t give a shit anymore about the root causes of issues and we’re cool with burning women as witches because the crops failed again this season or something?
“Every accusation is a confession.”
Doesn’t change that fact that he still needs that rubber stamp for legal cover.

Problem is that R’s in Congress know that if they actually gave him permission, they’d be fucked in the next general, but if they explicitly deny, they’re fucked in the next primary. Hence, silence.
Well now you’ve piqued my curiosity! Don’t just leave us hanging!
