- I haven’t found one person between the age of 28-45 who hasn’t found themselves scolding family members over 60 to take this more seriously.
- Finally, it can be tried as an adult.
- This is the first time I’ve heard the theory that the Holocaust wasn’t conducted with gas chambers but with free speech zones.
- Last night EMS in New York took 6,406 medical 911 calls, the highest volume ever, surpassing 9/11/01.
- The pandemic ends when the internal polling says it ends.
- This is a failed experiment. End it.This is so immensely sad.
- Feel like journalism is letting me down on Gen Z. Apparently the vast majority of the kids in our local high school are all using the app Life360 which was meant for parents to track their kids digitally. It literally can tell parents when the vehicle their kids are in has

- Just- all the chatter on my conservative and GOP channels - is rage at Trump like I've never seen. "The one guy he attacked before Election Day was DeSantis- the clear winner, meanwhile, all his guys are shitting the bed."
