Did you know the “weekend” and working only 8 hours per day used to be considered a radical, liberal idea?

We bought a canon printer a couple of years ago. One of the ones with the refillable ink wells. Here I sit doing all of the maintenance tasks in the menu to try to get it to work. Any good printer recommendations? I need to print out patterns.

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this?
Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..
