Yeah my job is pretty cool. My uniform is a tactical vest that’s two sizes too small and a gaiter I bought in a gas station. They send me to sneak into schools to kidnap little kids because people got mad about having to press 1 for English. The president had to warn everyone to stop spitting on me.

just absolutely insane that this is what Trump accused Biden of doing, and now he's done it himself.

this is the only Jubilee the people actually want to see

So Draymond is taunting a guy after lying about why he missed a game with the real reason being that is best friend died. And then refused to apologize. Cool cool.

The Republican Party is more or less built on reactionary opposition to the Democrats policies rather than their own actual policy ideas, and unfortunately the Democrats’ most recent policy was “having a strong economy”

JPM DESK: “.. tariffs of these magnitude will drive both Canada and Mexico into a recession. Look for US GDP growth expectations to crater and for earnings revisions to be materially lower, forcing a re-think of year-end forecasts. .. we are changing our view to Tactically Bearish.” $SPX

Another way the dictatorship might kill you. This is from a friend who is a retired air traffic controller.

This is so good.

Hidden among the Trump administration's first week assault on the American people is withdrawing the long-awaited EPA proposal on PFAS (forever chemicals) effluent limits in drinking #water. www.ewg.org/news-insight...

LA Galaxy captain Maya Yoshida nods to new reality while speaking to media today about his re-signing: "I considered all other possibilities, not in just these 2 years, but also the longer time as well. Also my family is very happy to be here. But now everything changes after Trump, so I don't know"

Biggest news here is GAM no longer having an expiration date.

AB is charging $5 more per keg. however, this makes no sense when you look at the data: over 300 kegs can fit in a single truck that pays a $21.60 charge. that’s 7 cents per keg, or $0.0006 per pint of beer, and not including labor or gas savings. AB is actually just price gouging.

These guys are going to rack up the screen time.
