The top 4 are the same culprits who tried buying Cuomo the mayoral seat. Interesting.
The Boston Globe identified the companies in Massachusetts that employ the most SNAP recipients. A key stat: "In Massachusetts, 74% of working-age recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are employed, half of them full-time."

I think Wake Up Dead Man is the first time I managed to work out the theme of the murder.
Not who the killer was exactly (I was right but through guessing), but the vibe? What the killer was going for?
Got that 100% due to the magic of U2 and a lifetime of Catholic Churches.

you can literally just flip these things over. noone can stop you.
Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:
Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

I don't disagree with John but there's another layer too which is people like him should never get near power and yet they get near it often.
There's something wrong with the system that allows people like Miller to do anything more significant than bookkeeping.

I think that somewhere along the way something in Stephen Miller got fundamentally damaged. This is neither an excuse nor a mitigating factor; the dude is genuinely fucking evil and he and everything he stands for should be fought against and stopped. But he is something beyond mere sociopathy.
Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.

The more Trump officials get angry with questions about why in in April they approved the National Guard shooter--who was a CIA trained asset--staying in the US, the more we need to press on this issue. The Trump cover up is on edge of falling apart.

Can’t imagine doing this but that’s solely down to being a “spatchcock that bird” person.
I will never go back to “cook the bird trussed” again.

I cook my stuffing inside the turkey. My family has been doing it that way for almost 80 years. Not a single person has ever been food poisoned. I don’t stuff it too full, I put it straight in the oven after stuffing, I monitor the stuffing temperature, it’s fucking delicious, and I DO NOT APOLOGIZE

TL;DR: the *actual* poverty line in the US for a family of four with two young children is about $140,000, and there isn't much improvement in quality of life between $40K and $100K.

And also put Robert Pattison in it. I want Dueling Banjos: fake southern accent edition.

I have long posited that Daniel Craig's accent in Glass Onion is better than Knives Out because in Knives Out he is trying to do a real Southern accent and is bad at it but in Glass Onion he is just talking like Foghorn Leghorn, which is something a real gay Southern weirdo would do.

Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.
