Imagine a world where, when you have a kid, you know you are guaranteed a spot in preschool because there's more spots than there are kids. So you don't even need to worry in the slightest.
Horrifying!

When people say "Newsom is electable" what they mean is that he is palatably conservative enough for the corporations that fund Republicans to fund him, for the same reasons, and he is palatably covertly racist enough to appeal to white supremacists.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Not a bad hypothesis. We really have no data (that I know of) showing that teens of the past couldn’t be little shits.
based on how often the naughty teens of major cities throw the rentable scooters directly into the river i've formed a theory that the many iron age swords and cauldrons found in lakes around europe that we've previously assumed were ceremonial and sacrificial in nature were in fact thrown by teens

My friend told me she always bakes muffins with her leftover cranberry sauce, and I was amazed that had never occurred to me.
So I looked up a recipe for cranberry coffee cake. Will be trying that tomorrow.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.
