I think we’re losing this game.

There’s American exceptionalism and then there’s the β€œyou gotta score at least a B- on your skills test” for SEMI AUTOMATIC WEAPONS. Isn’t that a test we kind of want people to ace?

If they get 200 out of 250, I would like the questions they got wrong to be made public.

13yo: Mama. IF we measured years in 9 month periods, I’d be older than I am.
Me: …. Why would we do that.
13yo: That’s how long it takes a baby to gestate.
Me: …
Me: …
13yo: So IF we matched up with that, I’d be 17.333 years old.
Me: …

At least after this we’ll be prepared for the emotional unpredictability of a woman president.

He’s going to release the ludicrous UFO files… but not the rest of the salacious Epstein files.

This is the worst grocery store check out lane ever.

My driver’s ed teacher was a football coach (Texas). He spent the first session on the subject of drunk driving, asking each of us how much alcohol it took to be intoxicated. I did not drink at 15 & did not know so he called me β€œAngel” for the rest of the course. Fun times.

So, to wrap up today's insanity:

President Trump, who is deeply implicated in a pedophilia scandal involving his best friend, the sex trafficker, sent Attorney General Bondi -- who only has that job because Trump's first choice was also implicated in a separate pedophilia scandal -- to the House...

Bondi: There is no there there in the Epstein files.
Jayapal: Look behind you.

Never mind the sexual violence toward children by the American president, a few people are getting more rich, including the American president.

During the Jade Helm days of 2015, Texas conspiracy theorists said that Obama was going to use Blue Bell ice cream trucks to transfer political prisoners to empty Walmarts in West Texas that would be repurposed as internment camps.

Aaaaaaand now here we are.

The Twin Cities was one of the most generous places I’ve ever lived. People didn’t talk, they just did stuff for others, frequently people they didn’t even know. My heart is in community with these aunties and with their supporters.
