That could be!

that’s odd because I just read that a patrol car was damaged from some shrapnel. I don’t know if somebody got mixed up somewhere along the way or both things happened. I guess either could be true.

justice was absolutely not served.

Yeah, being agist is really a hoot.

This. It used to be hip. Now it’s just dip. Way too many tech bros.

Lee should know. Age doesn’t come with a number. It comes with a mindset. His mindset is 1800s.

I was hardly shocked that Santos got a commuted sentence. After all, Trump knows a good Mark when he sees one. Nonetheless, it’s completely and totally disgusting.

I loved the “No-bill” prize section of your podcast this morning! Well, I love the whole thing every week, but this really made me chuckle. You two are terrific on this podcast together. I’ll tell you that. It’s my favorite podcast and I listen to a lot of podcasts! Best to you both!

No Kings!

And the funny part is is it should be three times as big.

Then again, it’s always a minority that carries the weight of the majority and regardless, I’ll do this again and again, because the future of this country is in the crosshairs of a fascist.

We had a little baby drive by who apparently just discovered his middle finger, which we all got to observe. They’re so cute at that age. Just a wee little 40 year-old playing with his middle finger to the thousands of gathered protesters who pointed and laughed.

And … we didn’t beat up cops with our flag poles, either. We didn’t tase anybody and we didn’t call for shooting anyone. We didn’t break hands or fingers and we didn’t gouge out eyes. We didn’t destroy public building and steal. We don’t do that. MAGA does that.

The two of you make quite the pair! Yes, Blue Jays are in the Corvid fam. Lovely drawing!!!

Sounds right. They also shouldn’t get any insurance coverage that they do not personally pay for. That might change their understanding of what regular people go through to try to cover their families. I’m sick and tired of these lazy fucks getting all the perks and favoring the wealthy.

Boy Genius just does not get it.

Elderly white hippies for democracy. Sounds OK to me. And those elderly white hippies vote.

Wishing everyone a great and safe day tomorrow at the No Kings protest of your choice. Keep it peaceful and have a ton of fun! Make a lot of noise!

It costs ~$70 to produce a year’s supply of insulin.

Yet, the average annual cost of insulin went from $2,864 in 2012 to $5,705 in 2016 to $18,000 in 2025. A 25,714% markup. That isn’t inflation or supply chain—It’s corporate greed.

Now—California will sell insulin for $11. Make this nationwide!
