I was thinking just the same.

I agree with every word you've written here, Air.
And, the same for me, actually.
Hahaha!

An excerpt from Jesse Jackson’s powerful speech to the Democratic National Convention on July 19, 1988.
May he rest in peace.
RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.
Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed
one fun thing NFL teams can do to celebrate their anniversary is win a title while setting a franchise record for points while also leading the league in scoring defense while also fielding the sport's fourth youngest roster while also waiting for the head coach to turn 40.
Today marks 14 years since 17-year-old, unarmed Trayvon Martin was shot and killed while walking home.
14 years later, we’re still demanding a country where our children can walk home in peace — without being treated like a threat.
And deservedly so.
I was in Eugene listening on the radio with my dad (and other sibs) when he hit that homer in the 1960 WS. I was 5, almost 6. He was my 1st sports hero growing up.
Yep. I have always hated the Yankees.
Thanks. I knew about the franchise tag thing, but thought there may have been something since. I appreciate the follow up.
What K9 announcement are you referring to, please? I must have missed it.
Thanks!
Or arguing online with someone and saying "you should read this book" when the other person wrote it.
As a while male, I always thought that it referred to other males talking over women to "explain things" that women were "obviously not getting". Unfortunately, I've seen that happen many times.
I do not mean to invalidate your own experience.
Hopefully, my response is not also #Mansplaining.
🧵 Trump’s lies about Epstein
May 2017
Trump Org attorney Alan Garten said Trump had no relationship with Epstein: “As I have previously explained, he had no relationship with Mr. Epstein and had no knowledge whatsoever of his conduct. This has all been reported countless times in the press.”

Color photograph of veteran actor Robert Duvall as Hub McCann in the 2003 film Secondhand Lions. The older, weathered character stands confidently in a cluttered, sunlit workshop or barn interior filled with tools, machinery, and rustic wooden elements in the background. Hub, portrayed with gruff authority, wears a dark gray knit beanie cap, a faded olive-green long-sleeve henley shirt with button placket (slightly stretched over his sturdy build), dark blue work pants cinched by a wide brown leather belt with brass buckle, and has his hands casually in his pockets. His stern, no-nonsense expression—furrowed brow, piercing gaze—captures the essence of the tough, adventurous, lion-hearted great-uncle who has lived a legendary life of battles, fortunes, and one true love. The warm, dusty lighting and practical setting evoke the film's Texas farm life in the 1960s, highlighting Hub's rugged, unyielding presence.
You were definitely one of the greats. While I loved your work in many movies, my favorite was 𝘚𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘓𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴. Thank you for Hub McCann--the tough, adventurous, lion-hearted great-uncle who lived a legendary life of battles, fortunes, and one true love.
Goodnight and godspeed, Robert Duvall. 🕯️

I’ve never seen the 2018 film ‘Active Measures’ before, although I heard it was great. I saw the post below just now, wondered where the footage was from after seeing @whitehouse.senate.gov comment. It’s available to watch for free on YouTube. Here are more interesting clips:
Thank you.
I am!
I've long been a very big C&H fan, but I have never seen this one!
Yes, indeed, John, a very big treat.
Thanks so much!

"Pittsburgh" panel? Sorry, but I must be well out of my element here.
Not really familiar with Frog and Toad (however, Pressed Rat & Warthog is a different story), but I do agree.

The New York Times just launched a new "newsletter about the law and the courts." They are calling it "The Docket."
The Times may not care that Democracy Docket has been publishing "On the Docket" and "Daily Docket" for years, but I believe our 400,000 subscribers might.
More on this tomorrow.
You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Unpossible!
