When I hit my forties I made this little image of some of the "tough old men" characters I grew up with and the ages of the actors portraying them so that I'd have context for when I started to weather, which I certainly have done.
Today, I'm officially "old Robin Hood" years old.

So, according to this, I am "Sam Elliott in Roadhouse" years old?
Okay. I can dig that.

It was a defense bill. This is weird. But the way they run the federal government doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Rob always goes to 11.
Rob Reiner belongs in the Pantheon of America's greatest directors, remembered in the same category as Spielberg, Coppola (both), Scorcese, Lee, Kubrick, the Coens, Bigelow, etc. Chances are, one (or many more) of his films are in your Top 10. 💔
No titles necessary and in no particular order: 1/9

Big Oil will never save Alaska. It’s time has passed. It’s doing more damage than good. We don’t need more climate disasters and climate refugees. Everyone knows the cause. #akleg

Alaska gets desperately needed money for libraries and museums because Democratic States AG’s sued the Trump Regime. Meanwhile our weirdo carpetbagger appointed AG from Texas Cox is too busy with culture war lawsuits to actually help Alaska like the Democrats. #VoteBlue #akleg #akelect
Federal funding for libraries and museums has been reinstated nine months after the Trump administration first sought to eliminate the agency that provides that money.
Judge restores federal funding for museums and libraries, including in Alaska
At least some libraries in Alaska that lost federal funding last spring have received notice that it’s been reinstated.

He's nothing but talking sewage -- a moldered slagheap of incompetence, rage, and desperate impotence.
Q: A number of Republicans have denounced your statement on Rob Reiner. Do you stand by it?
TRUMP: Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned.

I remember a young couple getting married in my fundamentalist church. Their ‘unsaved’ friends and families were so uncomfortable that they practically ran for the door after the service. The good church folk said they were ‘like cockroaches running from the light’. Jesus.

First of all we all DO NOT support Alaska LNG (according to Micciche and the akgop we do).
Secondly lowering the property tax rate is INSANE. We already have subsidized this project enough.
Thirdly Dunleavy has another no bid third party study planned for this.

Gov. Mike Dunleavy plans to introduce a bill that would establish a low property tax for the giant Alaska LNG project, a move that would help support its development.
Governor to propose lower property tax to support Alaska LNG mega-project
One borough mayor said he didn’t see how such a low tax could pass. Lawmakers have raised concerns about a quick resolution.
