Everyone is focused on the cash Noem was carrying when her purse got stolen. I’m wondering about the “medication” that was in there.

DEI “Pete Hegseth, arrogance is unbelievable. So much self-projection here. He is a fraud—unqualified, corrupt, and a disgrace. A grifter with a history of white supremacy, he’s everything that’s wrong with this country. He doesn’t belong anywhere near power. #Resist #ExposeTheGrift #NoMoreHegseth”

Cade Cunningham has zero assists and the Pistons are leading. The Knicks haven't taken a single free throw and are within two possessions. Several sequences have made me say, out loud, "Jesus CHRIST." The playoffs are cool.

George Takei turns 88 today, and he’s more than a queer icon — he’s a legend. From breaking barriers as Sulu on Star Trek, to surviving internment, creating Allegiance, & becoming a bold voice for LGBTQ+ rights. Happy birthday, George — you’ve boldly gone and brought us all along.
