A message from his wife Latifa Chambers on Instagram reads: “It’s with profound sadness that I share that my husband, Jimmy Cliff, has crossed over due to a seizure followed by pneumonia. I am thankful for his family, friends, fellow artists and coworkers who have shared his journey with him. To all his fans around the world, please know that your support was his strength throughout his whole career … Jimmy, my darling, may you rest in peace.

I stopped trying to make interesting, good food to take to Thanksgiving. My MiL made everything regardless of what I brought, so there wasn't any point. I was just stressing myself out for nothing. I decided to bring (cheap, boring) wine instead and I felt much better about the holiday after that.
Actually in the spirit of this conversation, what’s a decision you made about a past Thanksgiving holiday that really paid off? I think people often feel trapped by their lives. Sharing our experiences can liberate us from that sense of claustrophobia.
On the most recent episode of VIBE CHECK, we answer listener questions about Thanksgiving, most importantly “do you go celebrate with the family members you don’t even like?”

There was a time when I claimed to not like the Beatles but it was mostly to assert my identity vs my father and to troll rich suburban hippies I would encounter. I always actually liked them.
As someone who is this guy's age I can tell you 100% that if you were into Pixies, Nirvana, 120 Minutes stuff, etc. but didn't like the Beatles you had to have worked hard to contort yourself into that special little box. Your enemy, if you absolutely needed one, was hair metal. GTFO here with this.

"Got stopped at the mall the other day/Heard a call from the other way that I just came from/
Some brother was saying something/talking 'bout smoke something 'Hey, man, you remember me from school?'
'No, not really'/But he kept smiling like a clown, facial expression looking silly..."

Someday you, too, could have the moral fortitude to look upon a years-long rape circus organized by the nation's most powerful elites and declare, "The people upset about this are speaking about it the wrong way."

Just don't go. It's fine.
What started as a wink-wink tradition among dedicated pot smokers to make Thanksgiving more bearable has mushroomed into a full-blown holiday. Behold the “Cousin Walk.” 🔗 on.wsj.com/4oVRf9y

This is the dumbest possible take on healthcare, even worse than "private insurance is good, actually."
It's also one Mallory McMorrow has been using when she's been asked about Medicare for All.

The question to Karoline Leavitt is:
"As a Christian, are you ok with the president saying 'Quiet Piggy' to a woman? Yes or no."
This isn't hard.

Twenty people allege he has a racist past. He denies it. Who’s telling the truth about Farage’s schooldays?

I think it's just that Trump's brain is melting and he thinks he's best friends with the last person he spoke to.
I can’t quite put it into words, but Trump praising Mamdani on the same day that MTG resigns in opposition to “big Tech, big Pharma, the war complex and big donors” feels like a harbinger of realignment.
There is a political earthquake trembling beneath the surface waiting to break through.

I am convinced the culprits were never found because it was a test organized by the FBI or CIA or some other federal agency to see if it was possible.

Chuck Schumer says Trump’s remarks amount to calls for ‘execution of elected officials’ as president also says he and Zohran Mamdani will ‘get along fine’ in meeting
Robert Garcia, the ranking member on the House oversight committee, has sent a letter to the US attorney general, Pam Bondi, urging the justice department to release the complete trove of files related to Jeffrey Epstein, despite the newly launched investigation into several Democrats’ ties to the late sex offender.
“There is already a concern President Trump will attempt, on dubious legal grounds, to exploit a provision which allows DoJ to withhold information relevant to ongoing investigations,” Garcia wrote. Continue reading...

I'm disappointed that nobody has replied to this saying that both are acceptable. BlueSky is not what it once was.
Is Trump saying Democrats should be hanged or that Democrats should be hung?
