I think that some people need to make a hard decision to either toughen up a bit or stop going to family holidays, and I do not say this as someone whose gatherings are stress-free and tranquil
Here's a strategy to get through stressful holiday gatherings. Act like a dull rock

This is ridiculous, yes, but I continue to think it’s among the actually most serious of the attempted violations/seizures of power/chilling effects. This isn’t a “if this goes any further this will be bad” thing. What’s described below is *already* extremely alarming.

Sometime in the last three years or so I realized there's not really any such thing as an adult.
Then: How did {wildly silly and incompetent person} ever get appointed to {position of power}?
Now, as I reach the age typical of people in {position of power}: Oh.

My churches have been doing a Christmas ministry for about five years now, where we make a "store" and sell good Christmas gifts at like a 90% discount, to a couple dozen families in need.
I am shocked at how many people say, "I just don't know anybody who is having a tough time!" You sure?????

There is a growing desire among people to help out their neighbors (great!), but for whatever reason they don't want to give to organizations who already do what they want to do, and they don't personally know their neighbors, so they want to outsource that part

I was going to wear sweatpants to the airport, but then Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy of MTV's The Real World told me to pull out my velvet tuxedo to fly on Spirit Airlines and enjoy a $12 pack of Ritz and cheese
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

Mamdani said israel was committing a genocide in the oval office, this is not remotely the same thing
a significant reason Mamdani can get away with this and other Dems can’t is less that he’s charmed Trump and more that he’s charmed you, dear reader, which is why you’re not yelling at him for being a collaborator or an appeaser right now

I love this for her. She’s probably inundated with a hereunto unseen wave of hate by people who are supposed to be her base because she sincerely, in her own stupid way, fought for the epstein files to be released only to realize she was in the pro-pedophilia party. She’s Moses in the desert lmfao.
