Republicans win the White House, enact trickle-down tax cuts, and collapse the economy. Feel like we've been here before? Here's why it keeps happening. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIoEbmltMIk

I filled up my hybrid yesterday for $2.89/gal in Houston ($3.89 posted price). Shell gives a discount based on Kroger grocery spend. This was the 2nd time I received a $1.00/gal discount. I needed 10 gals but saved $10 on gas only because Kroger (and other stores) prices keep climbing.

Did someone stick me in a Starter Pack? I have over 200 new followers in 3 days. How can I find out? I don't mind but this has not happened to me before.

One down with three more years of Groundhog Day nightmares to go. BTW, happy birthday to my wife born on Groundhog Day. Also, I was born and raised in the Illinois town where the movie "Groundhog Day" was filmed.

Graphic video. If I were on a Grand Jury here, I would indict this ICE officer for murder based on this video. Any testimony from other ICE agents will be flat out lies.

I had purchased an analog antenna a few years ago for a backup. Plugged it in this morning and now have local ABC up so my wife can watch GH this afternoon. Crisis averted. YouTube and Disney, get your act together. We are all tired of rate increases and shutdowns.

Hey network TV, @abcnetwork.bsky.social , @nbcnews.com , @cbsnews.com . If you keep cancelling our favorite shows because trump said so, Boomers will have no reason to watch anymore. That $10B you get yearly from big pharma will dry up. Why won't you stand up for free speech? I'll go read a book.

The best earworm song ever. From Superman, closing credits. Go see it at the theater, great movie. The Teddybears with Iggy Pop. "Punkrocker." "Cause I'm a punkrocker, yes I am." www.youtube.com/watch?v=8P09...

Another rare 2 Wordle today. That brings me up to 24 times solved in 2 words since Jan 2022 when I started. No 1s. I wonder how Pope Leo XIV did at Wordle today? Wordle 1,421 2/6 🟨⬜⬜🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Get ready America, the isolated measles outbreak in rural West Texas may be on the move. Exposures in public places in San Antonio, New Braunfels, and San Marcos, on the well-travelled I-35 corridor. Could Missouri & Iowa be next? Then via I-70 & I-80 to both coasts.

When we left for a destination Christmas in Chicago, the Jersey drone hysteria was still at its peak. Having returned, I have seen NOTHING in any news source; here, twitter, CNN, and local. What happened?
