To think that spending money on 30 second ad buys for local ad-supported television watchers is a better use of funds than actually helping the constituents she seeks to help as a rep is such a tell. Consultants need to STFU and let people do what’s right for their own people.

Even if we were getting 4.3% more income, how does that cover a 30%-200% increase in healthcare premiums, passed-through tariff costs, or higher energy costs? What a dumdum

When we moved my mom to memory care, we tried to replicate her home. Furniture placement, favorite books (though she couldn’t read anymore), pictures on the walls in the same places, and labels on everything. The golden clutter grounds the felon, keeps him calm.

If she knew what she was doing, she would have checked on international distribution deals. She embarrassed her network which, who cares right, shame is dead. But they Streisand-effected that shit to the end of the galaxy. So no I don’t think she knew what she was doing.

As director of “new media” at the village voice in 1999, I can absolutely confirm. Free classifieds online killed their cash cow, and they never believed it could happen, so they failed to adapt in time. Most frustrating job of my life.

People feel like past generations were better off because there was less income disparity, the rich were only a few times richer than the middle class. Now a handful of billionaires possess more than half the wealth of the country. Also, college and housing became unaffordable.

The issue resonates not because anyone specifically remembers 6 years ago but because people buy the same things every week and every week the exact same things cost significantly more. Coffee for example, which we buy and drink daily. It’s right there.

Participation trophies for all of these Most Special Boys. I’m giving it to Musk, because he’s got millions of worldwide deaths already from his chainsaw massacre. Setting the murder bar pretty high.
