Hung over William Powell with frizzy hair, beard growth & bare chested can definitely keep a girl company during a boring afternoon.

A pal, my age & divorced, joined an online dating site. Today she showed me some of her responses. She thinks I should try it.
These guys were aged 65 to 80 & to a man they all hiked, rode bikes & hit the gym 3-5 days a week, desiring slim, attractive women.
O, come the fuck on! No thank you.

Infecting the evil agents with measles in order to thwart their evil agenda sounds like the plot of a B movie from Monogram Pictures.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has ceased "all movement" at a detention center for families in Texas after two measles cases were confirmed at the facility, the Department of Homeland Security said.

This! They threatened to arrest my husband for blowing a whistle outside our house. They took a picture of my license plate driving my kids to school. They took a picture of my face while walking my dog. I am still out here trying to keep people safe. Politicians grow a spine. #AbolishICE #mpls
my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

Of course Robin Leach features in the Epstein Files, duh!
I blame him for everything that went sideways in the culture from the moment he zeroed in on a gullible public’s appetite for idolizing rich people.
