"permanently pause"

A pause is stopping for a short period of time, right? And to permanently stop for a short period of time makes no sense.

Isn't that kind of self contradictory? Which, as the kids say, tracks for him.

So, now we have the police protecting the National Guard.

Makes perfect sense.

Who’s gonna tell him that he’s not the one who gets to decide that?

The Supreme Court d……. Shit.
The last president who declared that anything he does is legal was Richard M. Nixon. And we all know how things worked out for him . . .

"You're a stupid person" -- The President of the United Sattes

So much for telling our kids about how they could grow up to be President. Tell them to shoot for the branch manager at the local CVS. Everyone would respect it more.

"You're just asking questions because you're a stupid person"

What a master of wit, intelligence and rhetoric he is.

Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean

TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting

Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?

Not really being a country music person, Poco's 1989 album Legacy has always been a bit of an outlier in my music collection. I always felt that is a really under appreciated album.

One track in particular, Follow Your Dreams always gets me right in the feels. #sotd

Because having more troops standing around is definitely going to stop random people from walking up to one and opening fire. Definitely.

Honest question, how widespread is this as a Thanksgiving tradition? A local radio station (WMMS uses to and now WAPS still does) play it around 1:00.

Anywhere else?

I swear to god, Ellie Rowsell's (of Wolf Alice) singing in White Horses sounds SO much like Kate Pierson of the B-52s. And TBH, the whole song could be a B-52s song.

Oh, and it's damn good too.

Lately I've been struggling to find something to use in place the shorthand "BSA" when talking about Scouting America (formerly Boy Scouts of America).

And I was just struck by this tiny epiphany. Use "SA" as in Scouting America. #sa

Here's hoping they are as inept at redacting electronic documents as they are at other things and we'll be able to ready them with a simple copy/paste hack.

It's pretty bad when a pedophile calls you "evil beyond belief."

And #trump is still covering up his #pedophile buddies #epstein and #maxwell
Where are those Epstein Files?

Still deleting his name & image from thousands of pages, Pam?
