The big hardware stores lean very red. ACE and TrueValue stores are historically a retailer-owned cooperatives. This changed for TrueValue after a buyout. I tend to do most of my hardware and garden store shopping at an ACE about 8 blocks from my house, they have very low employee turnover.

The sad reality is that in FL you can at least get into a neuro, who will likely suck. In most states people wait for a year to book appointments, and the quality of them feels like a lottery ticket, where you usually lose.
Healthcare in the US is in bad state, and getting worse.

How quickly you forget. The O-line is a bigger part of it than the receivers, if we rewind to 2022, when he looked like this and won MVP, his best WR that wasn't a TE, was JuJu Smith-Schuster.
The rest of the WRs were Skyy Moore, Kadarius Toney, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Justin Watson.

Vikings fans must be excited for JJ to go out and throw for 160 yards !?
I am sorry, but what scale is he being graded? JJ won NFC offensive player of the week in a game that he went 13/20, 143yd, 2 TDs, 1 INT, plus 25 rushing yards.
That does seem offensive for an NFL QB.

In Omaha, Menards has a history of being a place to hire day labor. The company deciding to be pro ICE would be confusing if they didn't have a history of being so pro Trump.

The last time I made chili, In addition to smoking the veggies for a couple hours, I also smoked the tofu. It has to be pressed well for it to take the smoke flavor, but I highly recommend it.
I need to try using it crumbled in pasta. Even ground turkey is getting expensive lately.

Sorry about the lipids, I am not taking a statin, yet.
Ground beef is certainly up there, and I was using more tofu, until we had 3 more move back home, that don't seem to like the stuff. Curry dishes with tofu work great, and tofu chili is underrated by most folks.

So Trump didn't start a trade war with the Hickman household? Even the penguins from Heard Island and the McDonald Islands got tariffed.
I think we are going to see a lot more soy products in the US next year.
