If humans could fly, I think some of us would. But it probably takes the same amount of energy as running. So realistically, I think most of us would end up like pigeons & loiter outside of convenience stores instead of flying across the country.

My dogs are so ungrateful. They don’t appreciate the free dinner theater as I sing The Jefferson’s theme song while they try to eat their dinner. I even threw in a few dance moves.

temporarily pausing indiscriminate bombardment to facilitate the more efficient ethnic cleansing of territory is not an act to which I would apply the adjective “humanitarian”, unless I was trying to be funny I guess, and nothing about this is fucking funny

The GOP claims to care so much about the deficit that they’ll shut down the government unless they get massive cuts to social safety nets.
Meanwhile, they’re demanding an extension to the Trump tax cuts — which would add $3.5 trillion to the deficit.
Funny how that works.

It’s crazy that, of the two leading US presidential candidates, the guy found liable for rape who is facing 91 criminal indictments after he incited an insurrection *isn’t* the one who is facing vocal calls to step aside for someone else to run. People have lost their minds.
