Some guy at the business factory tell you that?

Don't forget this is the same guy who, as Governor of Florida, instituted drug testing requirements for welfare recipients. The administrative burden of conducting the drug tests cost taxpayers more money than it saved from excluding those who tested positive.

The two aren't mutually exclusive.

Isn't this the same company that called the police on legitimate customers after they messed up the paperwork?

Yes, that's the joke.

Just Matt Gaetz that I'm aware of.

First, I'm not a fucking Neolib. And second, you can't be upset at Trump for being a dictator and also upset at Biden for not being a dictator.

Could Biden have done more? Absolutely. But he also followed political norms that had been established for decades. Which is to be expected for a man who should have been retired instead of running for office.

Now there's a song I haven't thought about in probably 15+ years.

My understanding is the list was sealed to the DOJ until 2024. If anyone deserves blame for not doing anything, it's Merrick fucking Garland.

I wasn't a huge fan of the way they bastardized the source material. I grew up reading that series and despite its flaws, it holds a special place for me. I had been hoping for a good adaptation of it, whether it be TV, movie series, or video game(s). I didn't have super high hopes for the show, but I was really hoping they would be more faithful to the source.

It wasn't all bad. They did manage to hit most of the major plot points. I will say that I was supremely disappointed with the scene where Rand encounters Turak in S2. That's always been one of my favorite parts of the early books, and they just tossed it in the trash.

Anyway, this comment has gone on far longer than I planned. So while I'm a bit sad that the series is canceled, at least RJ can stop spinning in his grave over what they did to his baby.

I saw elsewhere that if every man, woman, and child in America paid in $12.1k, we could eliminate the $4T Trump just added to the debt.

I think the last disc-based game I played was Neverwinter Nights 2. Either that or the Command and Conquer Collection. That was probably around 2014.

Lost my boy today (sh.itjust.works)

I'm heartbroken. We found out he was FIV positive shortly after we got him, but that doesn't make the loss any easier. He was only 1.5 years old. Hold your cats close for me tonight.

Edit: I fell asleep, so I'm sorry that I didn't respond to everyone. I'm very thankful to everyone for the kind words and support.

 

Genre: Bluegrass Country

 

Fantastic metal cover of another Blondie song.
