I am a regular donor, can confirm

When my sons were quite young, we were in the car and saw one of those tiny SmartCars on the street. Older brother said, "When I grow up, I'm going to get a SmartCar because I am smart."

Little brother said, "When I grow up, I'm going to get a NaughtyCar."

<full body shudder>

Trying hard to save his job, I see

Maybe it’s the way the word “doxxing” now is used to mean “naming an ICE agent who did something illegal?” Feels like a lot of people expect to be unaccountable and unquestioned because they think they are the smart ones

The cover of the book "The Art of Discworld" by Paul Kidby. The painting is a woman in a vaguely Mona Lisa-like pose, with a big cheeky grin and considerably more cleavage than the Mona Lisa

Last I heard, he was finishing that painting with the eyes that follow a body around the room. The Mona Ogg, I think he called it.
Maybe he's doing both. Who knows what's going on in Forn Parts?

Hmph. Plain old Leonard of Quirm was good enough in my day.

Can't be havin' with that, not at my time of life

Probably AI told him that

Trying and failing to figure out why Democratic leadership insists on unpopular positions. It's not a moral issue, where taking an unpopular view could be noble. Special interest money? Unwillingness to listen to the people? Inability to recognize changes in the world? It's stunning how bad they are

And particularly for girls of color. If they got pregnant, it was something something lack of values something culture of poverty. Just full throated shaming of those girls and writing them off as hopeless.

Yeah it's in the thing, over by the whatchamacallit.

Without, I note, any red crosses in the image

The world economy and the lives of millions of people are in the hands someone skilled in the tactics of a mediocre used-car dealer. What could go wrong?

Dehydration probably

Yes normal
Not forever

You will find peace

Yeah I'm old enough to remember when teen pregnancy rates were at their highest and treated as The Downfall of Civilization and now that they are low it is The Downfall of Civilization

I know the odds are against this, but I'd like to believe that she realized the Iran debacle meant people weren't talking about her husband being in the Epstein files and this is how she decided to redirect the conversation while not making it obvious to him that she hates him

Two brown fluffy dogs wearing seat belt harnesses and big grins on the way to the dog part. One is also wearing a yellow t shirt because she likes wearing t shirts

Merry and Pippin say hello, and why not visit a dog park today?

Go with "Scunner" then, it's not wrong

Haven't we all, on occasion of bogarting a $70M fuckplane from a disgraced former official, felt the urge to publicly proclaim specific crimes we have not done?

I wondered how you could answer this question as I read it. Your response was outstanding.

Yes. My MAGA relative keeps trying weird "gotcha" questions on me like "You admit you think working hard is important? You're a conservative because liberals don't like hard work!" and I just blink at him for a while and then say "no, that's not a thing." He hasn't thought beyond the slogans at all.

Also Trump knocked half the White House down himself, so just own goals all the way around

Daft Wullie

Respectful counterpoint: appliances are the only purchases I regret from Costco. Dishwasher, microwave, oven all failed within 3 years (dishwasher within 2 months). Fridge lasted 5 years.

Though they were Samsung so that is on me

Weirdly seems to be the case where I live, where they went from $10/dozen to about $2. Your skepticism is well-earned and in this case the drop is only possible because of the eye-watering prices at the worst of the avian flu issue.

If we only bought eggs, life would certainly be cheaper these days

Accommodation with varying numbers of Cs and Ms

Also the hiring of consultants--there is always money for that, because it's "strategic."
