Uh-oh

An Office Toolbox is so useful in little unexpected ways. Always seems to blow people's minds when I pop out exotic items like, you know, a tape measure or a pair of pliers.

It's excellent!

The Trump administration wants Maryland’s voter rolls Attorney General Pam Bondi is suing Maryland Elections Administrator Jared DeMarinis to get the state’s voter rolls.

The Trump administration wants Maryland’s voter rolls

Not joking: has one reporter responded to his preposterous Sgt Schultz “I know nothing” schtick by immediately asking:

* Doesn’t this level of ignorance disqualify you as speaker?

* Do you really think we are so dumb to believe you?

* Do you think it is appropriate to insult the voters like this?

A college student complaining about a grade on a paper is not national news. Not even close. The details have minimal import outside the class itself.

Well-funded political activists targeting profs and TAs—in this case because they're trans—with the help of elected state officials? National issue.

"The United States Government protests most emphatically against this inhuman form of warfare practiced by Japanese forces in brutally attacking helpless survivors of a torpedoed vessel and demands effective assurances from the Japanese Government that such criminal acts, which are contrary to all standards of civilized conduct, will not be repeated in the future. It is expected that the Japanese Government will at the same time punish those persons who with premeditation and full knowledge of their actions have so flagrantly violated the primary humanitarian concept of maritime warfare.” Request Swiss Minister Tokyo51 to telegraph date of delivery to Japanese Government

Worth remembering now

People in the U.S. need to be paying attention to what’s happening in the U.K., because it’s going hand in hand with what is happening in the U.S., the agitators at work on both sides of the pond are working hand in hand with each other, and both have similar goals of ethnic cleansing.

How to Give Thanks by Cooking Food No One Knows How to Cook and Eating Food No One Likes to Eat To remind everyone how grateful we should be for all the readily available, appealing food that is easy to prepare and that everyone enjoys eating,...

"Stuffing is wet bread with pieces of wet celery stuck to it. Everyone says they love it, but they never prepare it on any other day of the year. The majority of the other side dishes are factory-rejected baby food."

This is a great example of what not do to when you write a headline—especially a cover story.

This is irresponsible. He is not in science he’s against science. He’s killing people because he is so AGAINST science.

Press—do better. Do not repeat their messaging. Do not repeat the lies.

“Are the fae open source?” is such a terrifying question in so many ways.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

I love the Dropkick Murphys because "Irish-American" + "gen X" + "punk rocker who's been at it for 30 years" should be the formula for the most racist guy alive but instead Ken Casey is constantly giving interviews where he's like "fascists are demons from hell and that's where they belong"

Any teachers out there? Ramping this back up again and figured I would advertise.

Shout out to everyone else watching poll results tonight with Gen Alphas, praying the numbers 6 and 7 at no time appear in succession on any kind of screen

Nick Pettigrew @Nick_Pettigrew Polio was eradicated because Jonas Salk chose not to patent the vaccine, if you want a perfect example of a socialist act. Quote Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63 · Jun 24 Socialism is like polio, it comes back when people forget about the horrible damage it did last time.

REMINDER: A socialist act by a New Yorker was a major reason why polio was eliminated in the US.
