I despise that piece of shit.

You know that’s why he is trying to use this against his legitimate accusers and prosecutors. He has probably been guilt of this ever since he started signing his name on loan applications.

My dog says it’s because she has treats in her pocket.

Don't forget also the people on grand juries who are making the determination that the government has insufficient evidence. That seems super courageous to me.

I love that she was also in the original Broadway cast of Hair.

Solo on Black Boys.

I feel the same.

Me neither.

It reeks of this.

I hear you man, but I think that ship sailed long ago.

We all sat down to play chess with a pigeon and now we are all bearing witness to the aftermath.

In these times of alternative facts, we would probably be doing ourselves a favor by choosing words to describe things like this that didn't lend themselves so conveniently to distortion and mass dissemination.

Sad that it has come to this.

Apropos of nothing, I love this scene.

Have you got any promising leads?

With respect, your question, literally, begs so many other questions for proper context.

One thing I am 100% certain of, we're not going to solve the problem messaging on social media.

lol, nice.

IntheWaitingRoom @chordtone.bsky.social · 1d

such a classic tune, from any genre IMO.

IntheWaitingRoom @chordtone.bsky.social · 1d

Well played

It’s not like they have anything else to do right now.

What could possibly go wrong?

Law enforcement do not know the law, they just enforce it. I know that sounds strange, but it’s true. It’s also why due process is so important.

It’s all one big fucking grift. Getting rid of these assholes will mean nothing if their ill gotten gains are not relinquished as well.

More than that

Saw wait wait in Portland ME back in June and have been a fan for years.

A friend of mine was on wait wait years ago when Carl Kasell was the announcer, and when she won had Carl record her voicemail message.

She used a Limerick that I came up as the message.

One of my proudest accomplishments.
