You are confused or deliberately trying to confuse others. The issue is crystal clear. 16 year olds should not have access to guns. And if *you're* armed because you don't trust your government, why aren't you fucking marching on Washington DC today?

💯 I am also Team Popcorn. If your pizza doesn't taste as good as it smells, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe you have sauce made with third rate tomatoes.

This is true. Too bad many, many folks can't discern the difference.

This is the "infotainment" industry at work, trying to sell pablum while calling it serious journalism.

The US could stop Israel's thuggery, but it has to find the courage to STOP sending Israel military aid. Elections have consequences. If our elected representatives continue to support Israel, then Israel will continue to act with impunity in Gaza and in the region.

Leadership does not get a pass. The very definition of leadership insists that you have an opinion about everything or get your opinion out there through known proxies. Silence is deadly to one's status as a leader.

The blame for having an incompetent press secretary rests solely with Donald Trump, not Katie Zacharia. She can’t help that she’s incompetent, *he* chose to appoint her anyway. Just like he chose to appoint incompetent Pete Hegseth and incompetent RFK Jr.

Schumer is quietly showing his support of Israel and its genocidal regime by failing to speak out against the DOJ raid and in support of US Rep. Ilhan Omar. The problem for Sen. Schumer is that it suggests he thinks the effect of laws and the Constitution are conditional upon a person's ethnicity.

Generational differences in lived experience, plus being *9 years old*. I have a granddaughter who isn't quite 3 months old. I hope it continues to get better for her and girls, collectively, too.

Gurgling noise? Are you sure that dog is healthy? Last time I heard a mammal described as making gurgling noises, the mammal was dead within a few hours.

Trump also has the advantage *inferred intelligence* because he's wealthy. Many members of the public automatically assign great intelligence to people who are very wealthy. What's crazy about that is that Trump's wealth is built on massive debt.

Every election should have a “none of the above” option and if that gets the most votes then they have to do the election again with new candidates

My hot take: multimillionaires should pay their fair share in taxes. Everyone who earns a scholarship, regardless of income, should get one. Universality demands *full participation* from everyone and *full benefits* to everyone regardless of income.

Isn't "bee apiary" redundant? Doesn't "apiary" necessarily include "bee" and exclude species that are not "bee"? Asking for myself.

Don't be hard on yourself. Math is difficult for some folks. Someone I know has tons of difficulty with word problems. Their brain isn't wired that way. We often forget that not everyone has the same capabilities. This is another reason to embrace diversity: we are stronger together.

your influences and that of your partner upon this young adult ready to launch on his own trajectory. Now, you want nothing more than another moment that takes you back to when he was younger and more in awe of you. He still is. It's just changed, which is its own reward. So much remains ahead.

It is bittersweet. Without realizing it as it happened, there's work in the raising of a competent, intelligent, and caring adult. You nearly missed it as it moved past and stood in front of you, suddenly radiant in its form, its smile, and its presence. You didn't make this alone; you can see...
