What’s your take on Crispy M&Ms being discontinued again? The new Crunchy Cookie M&Ms don’t hit the same for me.

Whatever happened to Handi-Snacks Premium Breadsticks ‘n Cheese Dip? It was my favorite snack growing up, and seems discontinued since 2023.

As summer travel begins, Congress is considering a bill that could sell off parts of protected wilderness in NV & UT, threatening lands once called America’s “geography of hope.”

Writer Wallace Stegner once warned: lose wilderness, and we lose part of ourselves.
Why protecting wildland is crucial to American freedom and identity
Thanks to the power of writer Wallace Stegner, Americans have for decades been able to put words to the importance wilderness holds in the nation’s history and imagination.

It’s a meme man, not that deep. NBA narratives always put top players head-to-head in match-ups, and the fact of the matter in two seasons Anthony Edwards has eliminated those 5 players (Luka twice). Impressive run for a young, talented player on a great team.

No rings yet, good thing it is a team sport anyhow. He has as many rings in 5 seasons as the Grizzlies do in 30 seasons, so I’m not sure what your angle here is. Enjoy the sport man!

National monuments have grown and shrunk under US presidents for over a century thanks to one law: The Antiquities Act
Public lands are quintessentially American, and in many ways they define and shape the American identity. There are a few ways to better shield them from political whims.
