Fighting the good fight is different than acquiring (perhaps illegally), holding, and abusing power.

I'm amazed the man has a dime left to his name.

The very last thing I am going to do, Sparky, is take orders from some nobody on social media. Obviously, you said what you said. You enjoy being wrong and think you're a tough guy. You're not. You're boring and unnecessary.

Funny, it doesn't feel like Kavanaugh, Thomas, Alito, Vance, Bolton, DeSantis, Hawley, etc., etc., are on my side... I'm supposed to sit back and take it, is that it?

I recommend you don't go to Vegas to try to get rich. Your guesses are waaaaaaaay off the mark.

It's always best to not insult people you don't know ANYTHING about just because you can hide behind social media to do so. It's not a good look for you. Love.

Ramaswamy, DeSantis, Hawley, Vance (JD), Clarence Thomas, Kavanaugh, Alito, Josh Hawley, John Bolton, etc. ... Yep, all working hard to uphold the rule of law.

I am not stupid. Far from it. I am disgusted & angry. I'd like to hear Yale explain why they turned these individuals loose on our country.

"Yale" and "Upholding the Rule of Law" don't really go together in the same sentence. Yale graduates are doing their best to tear down the rule of law... and install a king.

six packs of chicken and six of sausage if you turn down the cereal, bread, peanut butter, canned goods, milk, and fresh produce. He got quite belligerent and had to be escorted out. And that is why clients aren't allowed back to the shelves.

I volunteered at a food pantry this morning. We pack a cart based on the size of the family. Clients do not come back to the pantry. New client this morning insisted on seeing the pantry... and then tried to tell us what we were going to give him. No sir, that's not how it works. No, you can't have

I hope I live long enough to see adults in charge of the government again.

It makes one singular nine, not nines plural. Vertical thirds comprise multiple thirds, horizontal thirds comprise multiple thirds. There are no plural nines in one frame.

Yep, I'm a stickler for language. 😁

I agree with her point, but as a photographer myself (who has taught photographic composition), I've never heard of the "rule of nines." The rule of thirds, definitely. But in my photography world there is no such thing as "the rule of nines."

I don't understand how he can profess to be a Christian when everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie.
