My orange tabby has gotten chubby and too lazy to play much, so we’ve taken to what we call the “scream queen diet” where we just chase him around the apartment.

Didn’t they bench Price after fumbling? Why do they give Holani more slack? At least Price was explosive.

Is the piss poor running game more of a product of subpar RB talent or poor coaching? I’ve always been told this offense can be successful with no-name RBs, but it’s hard when they fumble at this rate.

If you’re a teacher and book a substitute, please don’t cancel the morning of the gig. Even if your schedule changes, you have paid leave; they don’t, and you just cost them a day’s pay. Substitutes aren’t allowed to cancel within 24 hours, so why can teachers?

Trump: "We've gonna shove it up their ass ... They are a bunch of dumb son of a bitches" Remember when presidents had dignity? Here's a lowlight supercut from Trump's rally tonight in Ohio:

Fuck this illegal Government paid ad with Trump rambling on about eradicating the "War Mongers" from our government, as his illegal war of choice in Iran has driven gas prices up to $5 per gallon and poured kerosene on prices everywhere. Fuck this shit. Vote.

Why did the administration request $70 billion in emergency funding for the war if they are currently saying it has only cost $38 billion? That was months ago, back when the war was only supposed to last a week or two longer.

Ok so Trump is *promising* that he will pay every American adult $5,000 if Republicans win the House & Senate. And as I’m sure other astute observers are noting, that’s essentially a taxpayer-backed, congressionally unapproved $1.3 trillion bribe. He’s bribing the entire country—with our own money

NO MORE SELLING BOMBARDIER IN THE UNITED STATES! Their products aren’t good enough! Over 50% of their revenue comes from the United States — They live off American Buyers, American Companies, American Airports, and American Service — All while Canada blocks our GREAT American Banks, and Companies, throughout the U.S.A. They even blocked Gulfstream Aerospace from doing business in Canada — Completely unjust and unfair! That Era is OVER! If they want our Market, they must build here, and stop treating America like a “piggybank.” BUY AMERICAN. FLY ON AMERICAN AIRLINERS. ENJOY AMERICAN LIQUOR AND BEVERAGES. SAIL ON LAKE AMERICA. AMERICA FIRST! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

"The Post Office's rule forces states to upload voter rolls through a portal and purchase new envelopes w/ voter-specific bar codes for every mailed ballot. If a ballot is rejected, it won’t be delivered at all, & only the registrar can fix it — the voter won’t be able to challenge their exclusion."
