I mean, knowing military contracts I think it’s way more likely that in 10 years you will go down to the boarder to find a pile of construction materials, one forklift that doesn’t work, and several contractors who can talk at length about how they used to be 1SGs before they retired, but who in fact cannot and will…

The Bible is remarkably quiet on the issues of injectable vaccines. 

Also if your religion is based on a book that was written pre-vaccines, it does not prevent you from getting vaccines. That’s just something you made up in like 1950. 

Turns out that religious texts written a couple thousand years ago have very few verses about modern medical procedures. 

Reiss says that the emergency provisions under state law aren’t subject to the same religious exemptions.

I get drug tested regularly for my job, and I have to be careful when I go to my (77 year old) Nana’s house, because there is a 50/50 chance that any baked goods she makes have pot in them. (it’s legal in her state, although she definitely didn’t wait for legalization to start making them)

Because it’s the King of Music, I’m going to ignore the fact that the Greek letter for Sigma represents an “S,” but it’s used here as an “E.”

I don’t know that being mayor of a city gives you less experience in governing than being, say, a Senator, and plenty of them have become President. Not saying he’s the perfect man for the job, but I don’t think being mayor somehow makes him inherently unqualified.

To be fair, lot’s of people on 90's network shows also get arrested, so I think it would still work. 

New Mexico becomes the 14th state to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.

If you are calling up politicians and threatening them, you are, in fact, the terrorist, not them.

I feel like a lot of people probably start these things off with a genuine feeling of “something feels weird/off about this and I want to know the truth” and then it snowballs out of control and they either have to admit to themselves it’s bullshit, or convince themselves that the lizard people are really real. And…

Is this news? My current cat comes when I call her name, and most of my previous cats would at least look around if they heard theirs. I always assumed they just didn’t give a f*ck about what I wanted, not that they didn’t associate those particular sounds with me talking to them. 

“We can’t call people innocent without an investigation.”

Yea, this seems like the kind of situation where they should probably include the guy’s whole name to avoid confusion. “Eric Holder” is the former AG, whereas if I saw “Eric Terrance Holder” (or whatever) I would assume they were different people. 

Yea, the high mean age makes me wonder if it is less “getting out in nature” and more “getting out of the house purely for enjoyment” that is benefitting these women. I’m sure my mother and grandmother would have loved to spend more time walking around with their own thoughts and less time having to deal with kids and…

Man, it’s good to know that the Queen really learned her lesson about being shitty to the family’s spouses... 

I wouldn’t hate anything that gave me millions of dollars, no matter how shitty it was. 

Yea, and not to be morbid about it, but every day that passes more of these old white people here die, and the state is trending younger, bluer, and more diverse. 

Eh, every intuition out there is small-c conservative. These people are worried about losing their jobs and are lashing out. I’ll just donate to AOC’s thing and not worry about the DCCC. I believe firmly in running the bluest (or in the case of the DSA, reddest) candidate a district can support. That means purplish…
