In cases you were wondering . . . this is a photo that annoyed Pete Hegseth so much because he thought it was "unflattering" so he got the photographer barred. I encourage all of you to use it as often as possible.

That stinks but I’m glad you got paid without litigation. I hope you charged them extra

Unfortunately I suspect a lot of law enforcement agencies will look at that as a plus not a minus.

Gentle reminder that ISIS was created by the US govt to fight the Shiite militants, who were armed by the US govt to fight Saddam, who was armed by the US govt to fight Iran, who hates us because the US govt overthrew their elected leader and installed a brutal dictator.

I honestly prefer third person, especially if the perspectives are switching. The trend I really dislike is books written in the present tense (especially if they're in the first person).

“Frog, Frog,” cried Toad, “taste these cookies that I have made.”

Frog ate one of the cookies, “These are the best cookies I have ever eaten!” said Frog.
