Oh you will be out of it for some considerable time 🤣
Choose your surgeon carefully. Extubation and removal of the 2 drains will bother you much more than the surgery. Also buy an electric standing recliner. It will become your best friend You won’t be seeing your own bed for some time

I’ve always voted for the person, not the party so if I see someone like a Mamdani or AOC out there, I would likely vote for them. But I am done with establishment democrats.

Everyone agreed that we don't need any more moderate Democratic Congress people? Moderation is not what is required right now

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.
Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

I found super glue in big containers with needle dispensers that allow it to used without drying up. So being the true consumer I am I ordered about a pint of it. This is enough super glue for 17 years worth of applications. By buying it I made a commitment to live to the age of 88😇

The story of How Americans deal with these Nazis is the new mythology. We're writing it and living it. Who will be the mythic heroes? I crossed a few Democrats off that list yesterday

Today I'm going to do an experiment. If you never hear from me again you might light a candle for me at least. By accident I discovered the seasoning mix which produces barbecue potato chips and of course I'm going to use it in a weird way. I'm making snickerdoodle barbecue potato chip cookies :)

I’m so proud of my daughter in Seattle.
She doesn’t have much money (she’s a preschool teacher with a preschooler of her own) but she has a big bag of Costco flour — so she’s baking sourdough bread and cinnamon rolls every week for people in her neighborhood who are furloughed or lost SNAP…

Back when I was writing music, using pencil on paper, my composition teacher at the time asked me if I knew what the greatest tool composers have is. An eraser.

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.
