And I loved how he just KNEW he had to be right. God forbid it occur to him there are women’s sports being played. And closer to DC too! And was he living under a rock in regards to the sports news at the time?!

Larry Fitzgerald is one of my favorite players. Probably more for the example he’s set off the playing field. Class act from what I can tell. Of course also an outstanding player but it’s the outstanding men who stay in my memories.

I agree 100% though I think Joe Buck might beat him by a hair for me. And Gary Danielson is probably third.

35 years ago today, while you were enjoying a concert, I was giving birth to my first child. I’m guessing you were having more fun!

This happened the night we brought our infant daughter home from the hospital. We watched the whole thing as we were up with her and the rocker was in the living room. She was born on the 14th, the night the Rangers won the Cup. (Yes, we used to get more than one day in the hospital back then!)

Or ask if they care about climate change!

Good luck selling all their outdoor gear when the great outdoors has been turned into nothing but oil rigs, derricks, polluted waters, clear cut forests, highways and parking lots. Who knew “they paved paradise and put up a parking lot” would become a goal instead of a cautionary tale?

Oh really? And how, pray tell, does the rich white guy define “culturally normal” I wonder?! I’m not giving my vote to someone who is willing to normalize right wing nut jobs by inviting them in his podcast nor someone willing to throw trans athletes under the bus to *maybe* gain a few votes.

Thank you for this! What a fascinating read. So many interesting combinations. Myself? Plain Jane here…Ball Park All Beef bun length, nothing on it, in a nice soft white roll. Split top if I felt fancy when grocery shopping! Best served with a side of fries!

I can’t explain why but I love this!

Pretty rich coming from him, a doctor. The third question in EVERY doctor’s office after name and birthdate? Your insurance coverage. Clearly they don’t think it’s a scam!

You can’t possibly be that naive. You had leverage and you squandered it. Pathetic.

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 10/11/2025

No you don’t. You got a pinky promise that they may or may not stick to and no mention of Leader Thune contacting Speaker Johnson to have his agreement on a vote in the House. You had leverage. You squandered it.

Oh, they will. Hopefully there are enough of us to overcome their incompetence. Say goodnight Schumer.

Can she possibly be this stupid? Or is she trying to demonstrate (and failing) how clever she is?

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 14/10/2025

Funny how he’s “never seen” things he doesn’t want to answer about! And he’s one of three major government leaders and he “doesn’t know” these things? How embarrassing to give that answer.

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 01/10/2025

Funny, I thought Republicans were the majority. How did the “Democrats vote [it] down?” The majority can go nuclear and eliminate the filibuster. So I’d say they chose not to so they are responsible.

000

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 01/10/2025

But they don’t. The majority party could choose to eliminate the filibuster on a simple majority vote. The Democrats did it in 2013 for some presidential appointments and the Republicans did it in 2017 for Supreme Court nominations. The filibuster is a Senate rule and the majority controls those.

I keep asking “Are they just old stupid men completely out of touch with today’s technological innovations?” OR “Are they inveterate liars with zero understanding of science?”

Does she really think people are this stupid? Well, I guess since the lackeys in the press room let her get away with it she does.

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 20/08/2025

I certainly hope whoever runs against her points out that no vote loudly and frequently!

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 16/08/2025

He’s useless. I’m decidedly unimpressed. Milquetoast. I disagree with a lot of what Newsom has done but at least he’s showing fire and not bringing a “strongly worded letter” to a gunfight! We need to see that from Jeffries, Schumer, and other Dems in DC. Mamdani is showing it in NYC.

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 15/08/2025

We read The Lottery in 7th grade at a Catholic school in the early ‘70’s. And people are complaining about it in a magazine in 2025?! Just wow!

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 30/07/2025

Just despicable. They have no shame at all.

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 28/07/2025

I think it’s counter productive given the number of people I’ve seen say they no longer donate because of this. None of them are getting any money from me ever again.

It’s part of his demonizing mass transit and the subway system schtick.

He lost a closed primary (which is how NY primaries work.) He’s figuring he’ll get independent and Republican votes in the General Election in addition to the Dem votes he’ll still draw in November to put him over the top.

My mother doesn’t have to depend on it fortunately but she’s not an idiot and she keeps track of her money. The second that money wasn’t in her account she’d be on the phone and she’d stay on hold as long as it took!

But I was told over and over again that this was what the 2nd Amendment was for. This is why we all needed guns…to protect us from government tyranny. So why am I not seeing the zealous 2A advocates out in the streets holding off masked men from kidnapping and disappearing their neighbors?

Electricity isn’t free. Someone is paying for it. How many people in your building are plugging in EVs? How many are not? Are utilities included in your rent? One way or another you’re paying for it. You’re also forcing your neighbors to subsidize your choices.

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 02/07/2025

She was never seriously considering voting no. She tried to cut some backroom deals and then like always voted party over country. She and Collin’s take turns vote counting and deciding which one gets to vote no this time so they can play it up to the rubes back home.

And 61 years later look how far we’ve fallen.

Oh, she’s “concerned.” Well then, that certainly changes the complexion of things now doesn’t it?

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 20/06/2025

Seriously! What kind of moron would sign up for this?!

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 20/06/2025

Funny, all the members of my family went to work. Why? Because they all work for private corporations not federal, state, or local governments. Private businesses are not mandated to close on federal or state holidays. They may choose to do so but no businesses are being forced to close.

Additionally, his office is in that building so building security, which is what some of those people on the video look like, certainly would know who he is.

Beth I-L @bethisaf-lauri.bsky.social · 12/06/2025

Then she should be removed for incompetence. He’s the ranking member on the Senate Committee with jurisdiction over her agency. So she’s either lying or incompetent.

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

**Musk hacking in to Palantir and hitting delete on all that data!** No way he doesn’t have a back door into all those files! And yes please to him shutting off Starlink! And then Verizon charging quadruple to them back up and running…sometime next week between 1 and 3…
