Seems to me, if a certain individual knew that Trump was in the Epstein Files and didn't mention it prior to this current social media catfight, it clearly demonstrates a willingness to support unimaginable corruption as long as it provides a personal benefit.

Given our troubled online times, it is no longer sufficient to "go touch grass." These days, one must climb a mountain and touch several varieties of moss and lichen.

I feel like a lot of the regular marketing messages are failing these days. “Two can dine for $18.49!” Well, I should fricken hope so.

It's like they filmed the entire 'Captain America: Brave New World' movie, and then purchased the soundtrack on Fiverr.

Thanks, Apple, for holding my life hostage with a ponderously slow WiFi MacBook Migration and forcing me to race to the Apple Store to buy a completely unnecessary and overpriced Thunderbolt 4 cable.

Today, I think you should listen to two reasonably smart academics carefully tweeze apart and analyze the embarrassingly shallow (and unsurprisingly right-leaning) opinions of the so-called world's smartest man.

I don't want clothes made out of recycled pop bottles. Nobody asked for that. You were supposed to be making park benches out of them. Go do that. And not the hostile architecture kind, either.
