Thanks DHS for reminding me exactly why I showed up at No Kings protests to fight for the kind of nation I want to live in.

Is this a new plan to make sure every major thoroughfare is under construction at the same time? Oh wait, that's already the case here.

I feel like this article headline should be _________ (the blank being her name) gives NPR $80 million. And then somewhere in the article maybe mention that she's the wife of so and so, of that might be relevant in some way. Just a thought.

There's a great place near me called Cheesy Bite that serves halal food. It's a pizza place that has awesome pizzas like butter chicken and chicken tikka pizza. I also buy most of my spices, red lentils, coconut milk, and rice from the Indian grocery near me because they're cheaper than HEB on those

Does that also mean if you don't have children, you don't have a family?

That sounds like a science fiction story idea.

Rentals owned by small time landlords saving for retirement and not rentals owned by large corporations.

I'm impressed you have that much of a puzzle done with a cat in the house. We would never leave a table with a puzzle out at my house.

And women are better off single without them.

Yeah, the one in Northwest Hills. That neighborhood has a high number of Jews, so they sell kosher food there. HEBs tend to cater to the surrounding neighborhood, whatever the demographics are.

I mean I think an even better idea in any place where residents have a hard time finding housing would be to ban the sale of property to people who don't plan to live in it as their primary residence.

I thought they kicked out their last churches that had female pastors around 2-3 years ago.

My only reason for not buying an electric car is not wanting a car payment when my car is already paid for. But if it does or gas gets doubly expensive, it would probably be worth it.

And I live in Texas where it really is a long distance to a lot of places.

I drive a lot of miles and would like an electric car. I think if it got 250-300 miles that would cover most road trips I take.

Could it also be that students read these books and then decide they disagree with them? I read "Capitalism and Freedom" and decided that I profoundly disagreed with it. This reading foundational texts for conservatism contributed to my liberalism.

But back then when Kerry was running, the Coors were still right wingers. So the cool thing to do would have been to say you didn't buy their beer because of their politics.

If you're worried about Project 2025, blame this Coloradan | Colorado Newsline The Heritage Foundation's formidable legacy of influence can be traced back to a person whose name is well known to Coloradans: Coors.

But also, we have the Coors to thank for the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025. coloradonewsline.com/2024/07/25/p...

😥

It would be awesome if Tarantino was like, "no dude, you can't misuse my work like that."

Well the Coors family are major right donors, so they probably pushed some outrage buttons to get that going. Kerry should have said something like, "why would I drink watery beer that supports right wing causes?"

A brand new car that no one else has ever driven that I actually get to pick and order with my preferred options.

I took a 1 hour introduction to missions class at Oklahoma Baptist University in the 1990s. The textbook was "Let the Nations be Glad" by John Piper. I went from wanting to be a missionary to almost becoming an atheist that year. It took years to get a faith back.

You know that could be a new angle for encouraging spiritual growth: come to church and learn how you too could learn the inner peace to not have to think about Donald Trump at all.

Never before have I been angrier about paying my taxes as I am this year. I feel like that money being deducted from my checking account would hurt other people less if they just literally set fire to it.

Do you think he will end up in the CREC after this?

And half the people there are haters covering it for their podcasts.

I make the most I have ever made yet my salary doesn't keep up with inflation. But I think it's that they no longer produce for the middle class, but for the high earners. They don't build starter homes and have stopped making lower end new cars. So if that's what you could afford, it doesn't exist

Or you know, he's sun downing, that thing people with dementia do where they don't sleep all night and then can't stay awake during the day.

So I guess this is his healthcare plan since we don't have money to pay for Medicaid or Medicare because we're a nation at war?
