Since it became socially unacceptable to wear a mask for Covid, I learned what really holds society together is the fear and shame of being ostracized by people at work & in your life. If it was socially unacceptable NOT to mask, we wouldn’t even be in this horrifying situation today.

Forever jail for every ICE pervert is the moderate position.

The NFL has replay assist. If it’s obvious, control room calls the ref and the wrong call is the righted.
Don’t want it overused. But it should be used when the ref clearly misses the call.
There’s no shame in an error. The shame is in not correcting it.

Never touched him. Just like last week.
It'll be fine. Because they'll apologize in the intermission.
That makes it all better.
