If you have all the lights on, that one little light won’t bother you as much because your pupils aren’t dilated.

Apparently we bought a bad president last year. Can we return him for a refund?

Also, what’s happened to Melania, with her veil and look of loathing?

Add-on question: when using a fork, do you put the points on the plate (or stab a piece) and then use your knife to push food onto the downward curve of the tines (I would say the back but that’s because I don’t do this) and lift it points-down?

Or do you carry food on the concave curve of the tines (as well as stabbed on the points of course) and lift it points-up?

This is cultural, neither is incorrect, but it might affect your choice of fork. Whether you switch hands or keep it entirely in your left might also make a difference.

I’d call it a miracle and propose beatification

Both these comments brought a small welcome upward twitch to the sides of my mouth.

But I assume the real reason is the accumulated leaders of nations.

Plus perhaps crowd control, with the possibility of protesters against the crimes of the Catholic Church, and just the general press of mourners, as he was a popular Pope.

The real power move would be for Francis to have arranged for a bomb under his carcass that explodes when it detects McDonald’s-breath.

…until the end of 2019.

So, the numbers here end just before the start of COVID-19. You might as well just draw a line to the ceiling then

Some aren’t able to spell it right once

“Cue” is technically more correct, as they would feel called to respond the way an actor is called to respond to their cue, or a pool ball reacts to being struck by the cue.

But considering they’re lining up in a queue with all their comments, I’ll allow it.

Federal agents have been in league with cartels before.

Even though I know it’s innocent elsewhere, something like “retirement scheme” still suggests some kind of Last Big Heist to me.

Also an American here: The GOP’s scheme to destroy scientific knowledge and deport all who question them is feeding right in to Norway’s plan.

I don’t hate a lot of Americans but I sure can’t stand our President and the rest of his fascist enablers

He’s been trying to tell you, “we come back as rats!”

There’s a lot wrong with sending everyone to El Salvador or Gitmo. But quite a few people who seek asylum are trying to escape a deadly situation in their own country. (Yes if they’re trying for asylum they’re not supposed to be deported without due process but that’s not stopping the Reich.)

Unrelated, but ever since I was a child I’ve been hearing a comic-book villain scream when I read, “IEEE!”

They aren’t really the opposition, they are fully in there spreading hate and lies with the rest of the Reich Wing. They just made greedy missteps out of greed. Mustn’t step on The Big Grift to fund your individual grift, bitches.

All those things RFK said autistic people will never be able to do? They’re making sure of it. Can’t have anyone help them succeed, when your goal is to eliminate them from existence. And can’t have any studies that might prove causes you deny, only those that push your agenda.

Depends on your insurance. I had 2 C-sections, both qualified by my doctors as “medically necessary,” and good insurance, so everything was covered. Note: it was in the 1990s, insurers have become increasingly dickish about that “medically necessary” qualification.

Also note: It’s not the initial cost, it’s the maintenance. My now-adults are priceless, but it’s been a lot of money!
