Wait, a man who drove his wife to suicide by proving how popular he is with the ladies stole money from black kids for their health to fund an entourage to prove how important he is? It's *almost* as if RFK, Jr. is a truly horrible, insecure person!

Tillamook cheese has been halal for many years. I think they switched from animal rennet around 2015/2016. This would be stupid outrage if it were recent but its doubly stupid because this is old news.

After FDR cleaned up the mess created by Calvin Coolidge and blamed on Herbert Hoover, Democrats spent decades reminding voters what the two parties had done. In recent generations, that basic act of politicking has been deemed impolite by Democratic leaders. That needs to end.

Centrist Democrats hate humanities scholarship just as much as Republicans do - the difference is that Democrats think humanities teaching is important in the elite private institutions they aspire to send their kids to, but not the actual laborers.

All I know about The Odyssey is that when my mother took her "maturitá" exit exams from her Liceo Classico in Naples, Italy, she needed to be prepared to translate ANY passage chosen by her examiners from Greek to Latin. From memory. In dactylic hexameter.

Covid lockdowns demonstrated, in a deeply imperfect way, the possibility of large-scale social solidarity for a higher cause. That is a prime reason why so many powerful people want us to run screaming away from them into the comforting arms of selfish individualist competition.

Trupanion. Private equity has forced up prices for every insurer. Not cheap but they reimbursed me for just one dog with 3 years of cancer treatment easily 3 to 4 times what I paid for two dogs over 8 years. They dont cover routine exams but I wanted insurance for the 12,000 ER bills and meds.

Unfortunately, preventing the public from knowing about the death of a Member of Congress is not a standalone federal crime in itself – but actions required to successfully conceal it (such as hiding the body, identity theft, or falsifying official documents) violate multiple federal and state laws.
