Every time a girl walking a dog waves to me I assume it's because the dog told her I was cool

Randomly remembered this dialog from Rick and Morty's "Air Force Wong" President: Rick, thanks for coming. We've got a situation in the state of Virginia. Rick: Bigfoot? President: That's Montana. Rick: Nazis? President: That's, uh...everywhere.

in retrospect, one of the funniest headlines of all time

America voted for its own self destruction. Trump and GOP don't believe in climate change. They're going to go after the EPA, scientists, FEMA, and any regulations that can save Americans. Instead, they blame people of color and DEI. It will impact all of us, everyone. Alas.
