Can't they just ask if your mother had taken Tylenol as the only question and call it a day? 🤣

That's why you move to NYC where they don't say hi, ask you about yourself, just check all your stuff out and tell you to get out of their face - done quickly and efficiently without the machine in the way that obvioulsy haven't tested by their IT people or the store.

Things that happened when Schumer was asleep on the wheel 🤣👇

BREAKING: Trump says he is designating “Antifa” as a “major terrorist organization.”

Such a step being taken this way would be concerning enough, given what it actually is, but, given that Trump sees “Antifa” hiding in every corner of opposition, this could be an extremely alarming escalation.

Donald J. Trump t @realDonald Trump
I am pleased to inform our many U.S.A.
Patriots that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. I will also be strongly recommending that those funding ANTIFA be thoroughly investigated in accordance with the highest legal standards and practices. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Respectfully disagree: 1) in fact it is unusual for a democracy w/ this level of GDP to turn authoritarian & so quickly; 2) the weakness of both institutions (congress & courts) and individuals (Schumer etc) is shocking. Would take less than 10 people in congress or 2 SC justices to stop all this.

What America is going through is not unusual in historical terms. Plenty of examples like it today elsewhere in the world.
What makes it unusual is the rapid collapse from a set of widely espoused norms and values that centered on liberty. It is the sacking of the shining city on hill that shocks.

President Trump celebrates the Jimmy Kimmel news and pushes NBC to fire Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers.

t
Great News for America: The ratings challenged
Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED.
Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done. Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that's possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!! President

I was so fortunate attend the closing performance of Free Shakespeare in the Park's TWELFTH NIGHT on Sunday at the revitalized Delacorte. Sensational theater, freely shared, and a testament to the importance of public arts in NYC.

I think it all depends on your experiences and when you have that self-discovery/realization that you just can’t be everything to everyone before you are completely exhausted and have no time for yourself. Totally against the Chinese culture lol

People will believe anything you tell them when they are desperate so they can have hope. It’s unfortunate when others prey on that desperation to believe. It’s worse if they use it for their advantage 😔
