Calling it a "Bacon, Cheese and Egg" is psychotic. It's like ordering a "Jelly and Peanut Butter." This is worst thing Andrew Cuomo has ever done. (Remembers all the other stuff he's done) Ok well it's still bad.

A new report from @fwd.us Having a loved one behind bars costs families nearly $350 billion a year. They pay for emails and calls to their loved one. They travel to visit, and send money for the commissary. And they lose income, even long after the prison time ends. www.npr.org/2025/06/03/n...

Once viewed as the path out of the pandemic, mRNA vaccines are now being vilified — & not just by fringe figures.

I prefer when a sports trophy is the same shape as the ball from the sport in which it is awarded. the Wimbledon winner should get some 10x sized silver tennis ball.

Aside from the fact that anyone can get seriously ill from COVID, a key point they are deliberately hiding when removing access is that COVID vaccines reduce transmission. People choose to get vaccinated to protect other people. It is wrong and harmful to take that choice away.
