Speaking of Dems who have been good on Twitter since before anyone knew who AOC was: Ted Lieu.

And if you think about it, the word “DIX-ie” (accent on the first syllable) doesn’t even fit the tune like “dee-CEE”. The piano-lesson kid in me just figured it was written “Dee Cee” because, like a good fight song, the stressed syllables just fell nicely on the notes.

I’m old enough to remember CBS putting them on every week (it seemed) because they were that good, and showing the band play this song.

“But all tests, even math tests, ultimately measure language skills.”

Why, just yesterday I had to use calculus at the grocery store.

Someone please post the Oprah gif. “You’re getting fired! And you’re getting fired! And you’re getting fired!”

Well, my wife and I started with a Cobalt Blue KitchenAid in 1995, and in the intervening years have added a pair of silicone oven mitts and a foursome of dishtowels in cobalt.

Here’s Mile A Minute Murphy in 1899, when neither roads nor autos could give a daredevil speed freak a guaranteed 60mph to track behind.

Mine is from a big ol’ rambling used bookstore (with plenty of cats!) and a separated adults section underneath a stairwell, not far from the cashier, so kids don’t go in it.

I think I have a copy of that; I’ll have to look. All I know is when I was donating books to a charity shop I didn’t give it to them because I figured they wouldn’t want to put it on their shelf. It would be out of place even next to the most florid Harlequin bodice-rippers.

“I dated girls when I was in my 20s, two that had abortions that I really did nothing to stop”

“Found that her not so noteworthy views did not make her stand out among liberals...”

Yep. Or to tangent, pro players have a bit more freedom to not attend than college kids.

A 17 year old driving a 16 year old passenger. I’m two time zones away; what are Utah’s restrictions re graduated licensing and was having that passenger a violation in itself?

I don’t remember it, and I remember a lot of bad cartoons. (And I’m the right age.)

“Artificial, salty, and terrible”, agreed. But if we’re talking Trump voters, shouldn’t it be a bit more Dorito-orange?

At some point I lived in a place with no garbage disposal. Part of adulting should include a stint in an apartment like that, if only to remind folks not to pour FOG (fats, oil, grease) down the drain willy-nilly.

I’m juuuust enough of a coin geek to read the headline and think “1943 copper; is a 1914 D worth that much?”

Jeebus, but that reminds me of me and my siblings being obstinate kids. The slightest agreement for the most minor task and the incredible foot-dragging. It would get to the point that my dad would just up and say, “It’s less work if I do it myself!”

Proud Boys deny that Wolf was a part of the organization, insisting that his mental health issues stopped him from becoming a full member.
