Philly born and raised. The only time I temper my accent? When I volunteer teaching immigrants English. Been chiding male chauvinist pigs since junior high in the early 70s. Lastly, all these meddlesome billionaires are chapping my ass.

Bobby "Team Measles" Kennedy wants to 86 Covid shots. He said heroin helped him thru law school and religious faith helped overcome his addiction. God told this 50 year Sunday School teacher to trust science - I'm a wheezy old boomer. Oh well, I'll be back to calling my senators every week again.

US-CERT was about to be called in. CISA’s cyber response team. But senior officials told them to stand down — no report, no investigation.

The Dem is way down in the dumps about the state of the union. I am trying to appreciate the most trivial of victories, such as I managed to change the battery in my key fob. Follow me for more mundanity 😐

If you wouldn't vote for the Democratic candidate in our last presidential election, because of their position on Gaza, well, you're not gonna like what 47 is saying now.

Pete Hegseth spent so much time speaking about religion. I can do that too. “Dear God, let Putin not lead him into temptation with a honeypot with a couple bottles of ‘wodka.’”

We really need to get to the bottom of this drone situation because I've got some snarky comments queued up but what if it's serious? (Sometimes I think before I opine.)

Wouldn't it be nice if some of these billionaires spent money to relieve medical debt rather than competing by launching penis-looking rockets (Freud, much?) JB's ex is a huge philanthropist.

I see some people are referring to posts here as "skeets" and I am both too old and too immature to use that nomenclature. (I did once have an opportunity to shoot skeet, my only firearm experience, and that was pretty fun but I know what other meaning the word has so tsk tsk, ya filthy animals.)
