By definition, recipients are dependent. Get some new talking points

yep. i can identify any number of structural issues but at the end of the day the basic problem is the republican party. this has been apparent for at least 20 years. it is also an incredibly unpopular observation to make among “serious” people.

Yes, but also plastic and in the US, it’s a bigger factor just to pick the closer store

I blame Dustin Hoffman…

Vikes need to sign a veteran QB

I'm opening for Danny Jolles at Acme January 14-17 You should come see me tell jokes and then buy my buttons As always, my calendar is in the link in my bio. And, yes, it's just a google spreadsheet acmecomedy.seatengine.com/events/124571

Whatever one thinks of the attack on Venezuela, you have to admire the skill and strategic precision of the military forces that stormed Madura's fortress and so effectively removed the Epstein Files from the headlines.

Trump/Hegseth/Rubio killed 40 Venezuelan civilians two days ago. They've been murdering random fishermen for weeks. Think about that. Really think about that. Think about shaking the hand of someone responsible for that. Think about writing a news article about them and not mentioning that.

The amount of money we're spending to terrorize neighborhoods and snatch tamale vendors should radicalize anyone.

When there are special rules to protect you that do not apply to others on the field, you keep your trash talk in check lest someone much larger than you accidentally forgets about them.

Maybe next week if they are too busy. Before the end of the quarter for sure.

Save that first sentence to replay for Dana in two months. Why are these people so blind?

Not as weak as anonymously toadying to your own dictator, you absolute tool

Beyond parody. Pathetic

Car crash deaths are an example of our refusal to adopt obvious policy improvements that would save lives!

If you write about public health, I am begging you to stop using car crash deaths as a foil. The implication that we accept some kinds of child deaths but not others is very painful to people (including me) who have lost children in crashes. These deaths are preventable, too.

Turn out Generals Kelly and “Mad Dog,” neither remotely moderate, were actually a constraint the first time around

I’m old enough to remember when countries wanted to voluntarily integrate with the US and we welcomed it via trade deals…

Two weeks later: “Who could have foreseen a guerrilla insurgence rising against the American interests in Venezuela after a regime change? This has never happened before! Words like ‘quagmire’ are being thrown around!”

We also need to say the President is not immune and the Court’s decision otherwise is no more legitimate than Dredd Scott

Yes but you basically have to be in the NE corridor to have even remotely viable intercity train service

Invading Iraq with no occupation plan worked so well it’s only natural that we move on to governing without even occupying.

Bombing another country and kidnapping its leader would also be wrong with Congressional approval. The outrage, and call for impeachment, should be over the evil and illegal outcome not merely the failure to follow the prescribed process.

Mostly joking but: do we know if Maduro is in the Epstein files??

Evergreen skeet, but I’m so tired of middlebrow Strib opinion writers conflating “centrist” with pragmatic, like selling out to bitcoin billionaires is some model of reasonable. www.startribune.com/gov-tim-walz...

They are going to choose, “meh, we don’t like him either”

Now that they’ve started a war I’ve completely forgotten that they’re pedophiles.

They’d lose at tic tac toe

If you look, you will see it is not

I’m going to need a lot more people to start asking themselves, “but what if it isn’t though?”

They have rear wheel drive SUVs???

Meanwhile, my least favorite podcasters are the sports talk guys who are used to filling time.

my (very large Minneapolis) hospital has roughly 200 influenza admissions right now, kind of mind-boggling

The Kaiser also liked uniforms

He is right that we hate lame-os, right cool kids??

Finally someone who (won’t) worry about parking

Something to keep in mind about rhetoric around Zohran is that the same billionaires and bigots who tried to smear him during the election will continue their efforts, especially if he continues to be well-liked and successful. These smear campaigns can be extremely sophisticated and convincing

Same

Not a good day for to be a Hoosier football skeptic.

He was supposed to have proven us “not racist” and then access to Mitt because decorum you see…

Didn’t Keith Ellison use Jefferson’s Quran?

Yeah, baby

I keep writing 2015 on all my posts.

Starting an avoidable land war in Asia is the definition of very stable genius, just for starters.

The last five years have felt like misogynists getting revenge against the professional women who enjoyed this moment

We are *all* Real America in the same way a naturalized citizen who took his oath five seconds ago is exactly as much of a citizen as someone whose ancestors came over on the Mayflower.

I went to all 10 of the daycares Nick Shirley featured in his viral video. I got inside 4 and found children. Lots of children: www.startribune.com/day-care-fra...
