Huh. Almost like they chose to move to another country where they thought they'd have a better life. If only there were a word for that....

So Tuesday plus weapons basically. (Pitch to add Slim Pickens, I mean Hegseth, to the list.)

Except Trump says four weeks because it's a big country. Just like the Iraq War was supposed to be eight weeks or so.

Honestly every time we have some sort of conflict in the Middle East (i.e. basically my entire lifetime) you do get people singing it as "bomb Iran." So that's really not surprising!

Being American is embarrassing on multiple levels right now; sorry that you're having to cope with this. (Also this is the kind of initial statement that is demonstrably false re: the US and should therefore lead a reader to check the poster's country of origin. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ)

Those of us who grew up with Silent Gen parents absolutely did. Can't speak for anyone else though!

Headline: Trump suggests US could carry out "friendly takeover" of Cuba.

My very own personal opinion is that perhaps he could try actual governance in one country before scaling up any more. But hey, what do I know? (Via @us.theguardian.com )

I think it depends on what you're cooking and on the particular vagaries of your oven. My old oven regularly required an extra five to ten minutes for cake (for instance) whereas with my current one I check at the low end of the cook time. Spinach dip, e.g., I'd leave in longer.

I do drive and I still use public transportation all the time! (It doesn't hurt that my work offers free bus passes.) Even in a mid-sized city I'd much rather hop a bus than trying to park downtown or worrying about that second glass of wine.

This is Beans. Beans stole a while rotisserie chicken off the counter. Not a piece. The whole chicken. Beans dragged it under the bed and growled at us for forty minutes. Beans is 9 pounds.

I personally got inappropriately touched by the mascot at age 12 so this tracks.

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country?

Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.
