Seriously what is that? A handful of football fields? Fucking WALK. Jesus Christmas you people.
580,000 people in Massachusetts live in “pharmacy deserts,” areas where residents live at least half a mile away from the nearest drugstore. It doesn't have to be this way — healthcare is a human right!

Hahahahaha "no new wars."
🇺🇸 Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth announces the official end of the "no new wars" fallacy: "We’re not building for peacetime. We are pivoting the Pentagon and our industrial base to a wartime footing."

By the way I meant to mention that Giant Evil is so oustandingly giant now that if I hug him around his shoulders (highest I can reach if I stretch without a step stool) I cannot touch my hands together behind his back.

NO MORE TARIFFS!!!!
President Trump has invoked emergency powers to impose tariffs on other countries and, ultimately, Americans. Those powers reside with Congress, not the president. nytimes.com/2025/11/03/us/po…

If I've been reminded of anything over the last two months, it's that very few public figures actually care about "civil discourse." Most just want to weaponize the term against their enemies when it's convenient while adhering to the exact same approach they claim to hate.

The Founders didn’t want these poditions go be a full-time job.
There’s nothing common sense about this. The 27th Amendment prohibits varying the compensation of members of Congress during a term. Why? Because the Framers didn’t want pay raises OR decreases to be used as bribes to compel members to vote for or against legislation. Imagine how things would play out if members knew that by voting for a bill they would get paid but by voting against a bill they would not get paid. The incentive for self-dealing is horrible. If you value a representative system of government, you don’t want congressional compensation tied to how they vote. That’s why we have the 27th Amendment.
