Due to storm Christmas has been pushed back a day so I needed to go to grocery on CHRISTMAS EVE so we'd have a semblence of a holiday meal.

Sean Duffy on blue states: "What I can do is I can pull their money. That's the leverage I do have ... I guarantee you that the federal taxpayer is not going to fund their roads and bridges and their systems when they are putting illegals on the roads."

I love both of those comedians and think this is nonsense?
Josh Johnson turning out speed of light political comedy that’s thoughtful and wise
Mike Birbiglia’s specials are truly works of art
Every word John Mulaney says is funny?
Iliza Schlesinger is an incredible dissector of misogynist myths

Update: very active weather week to come in CA! First, a persistent and very warm atmospheric river will remain draped over NorCal, continuing to generate rain--and snow levels in the Sierra will rise yet further, above 8k-9k feet. SoCal stays warm/dry through Tue. [Thread] #CAwx

"It's just concept art, who cares if they use genAI and not actual artists?"
Look at this concept art for C-3P0 by Ralph McQuarrie.
It's the very thing that inspired Anthony Daniels to go for the role of Threepio and perform him as such.
It is the first heartbeat of the art that now exists.

The ultra rich can not get us out of this nightmare they created. They are clueless about what it is to live on less the 50k a year.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.
What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?
Who in the USA gov runs the program?
R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

Like their intellectual predecessors in the Hitler Youth, the point of TPUSA is to intimidate the educators and students who don’t share ruling party ideology into silence. This is just basic fascism.
Happening now: Texas leaders announcing a rollout of a statewide program to put TPUSA chapters in high schools and colleges across the state. Gov. Abbott adds that schools that stand in the way should be reported to the Texas Education Agency.
