In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Followup question, "Are you or are you not the Commander-in-Chief and if you are, SHOULDN'T YOU FUCKING KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON AT THE UNITED FUCKING STATES DEPARTMENT OF FUCKING DEFENSE?"

Why is Wright County, Minnesota named for Silas Wright, a New York politician from the first half of the 19th century who, as far as I can tell, never set foot west of his home state?

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

Oh damn Prime actually published their failed chatgpt prompt in the description

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

Every union should be echoing this statement.
