I want to know why the price of chicken thighs hasn't gone up at the same rate as chicken eggs.

It's like they only just noticed that Trump was Putin's poodle.

Turning 68 this May. Still waiting for the Age of Aquarius. Howdy back atcha.

And of course he mourns the architecture more than the people who have lost their lives. All that gilding has gone to waste!

It has even burst the Fox information bubble! Love it.

America has already been bought and sold. The question is: How do we take it back?

Dirt and wax buildup can cause odor (even if there's no infection) as well. Here's what I use:

Not tech-savvy so my sons do all my uploading for me: they keep my photos and their artwork on a couple of external hard drives. That way if the desktop and/or a hard drive crashes there are backup files. Hard drives aren't too expensive & you don't have to pay any fees to keep your files stored.

Use an eyedropper to put one drop IN each eye. Clean his ears with an antibiotic/antifungal ear cleaner before his bath. Use low water pressure, hold his ear closed with one hand while rinsing with the other, head tilted up, & you shouldn't have to worry about water getting into his ears or eyes.

That would be worth seeing! I feel sorry for the kid, though. He's obviously doomed.

I've never had to take a polygraph, but I can control my blood pressure using yoga breathing techniques.

When I worked as a groomer we used a half-water, half-white vinegar solution as a pre-shampoo rinse for skunked dogs. It leaves them smelling a bit like salad dressing but does the trick. Put a drop of plain mineral oil in his eyes as a precaution!

Thank you for taking a stand and continuing to speak out!

So much for "free speech".

Jokes aside, the point of these confirmation processes are to largely just assess “is this person qualified” even if they don’t hold your politics. What too many people fail to grasp is that “not willing to be party to raging lawlessness” is a qualification standard

🤪 A reasonable assumption on his part.

Trump is even on tape boasting about this.

You could see X terrified Trump, who flinched when the kid came near.

I've been thinking about this too! Elon and Trump are Bond villains who have come to life. Elon just carries around a small child instead of a cat. Where's a real-life Bond when the world needs him?
comment in response to post
I wouldn't want a female Bond, because most of the qualities that make Bond unique are uniquely male. His aggression and brutality, his air of careless misogyny that hides the vulnerability of a broken heart ... all male. Besides, we already have Black Widow if we need a female super spy.

Ukraine shouldn't have been dressing like that, flaunting their grain and rare earth minerals. And those sunflowers! They were just asking to be invaded! Besides, Putin says it was consensual.

I would love to see Trump feeling irrelevant. It's one of the things he fears the most.
comment in response to post
We'll have to see whether they can actually execute their Fiendish Plans while Trump is distracting everyone with his lunatic antics. They may end up at cross purposes.
comment in response to post
Trump just wants to break things for the sake of breaking things. I don't think it's any more complicated than that. He's that kid who kicks over the tower you built out of blocks just because he knows he can get away with it.

Reminds me of this cartoon

Exactly!

This is nothing new. As a teenager in the 1970's I was fit and muscular, but thought I was fat because I was a size 13 when all the bikini shops in my beach town only went up to a size 9. At age 24 I went on a crash diet of rice cakes, yogurt, carrots and celery to get into a size 9 wedding dress!

Thinking outside the box can be desirable, but not when that box is objective reality.

Where's James Bond when we need him? Bond villains are running the country.
