  1. That is the mother-f’ing, infuriating truth.
  2. Winner column - free pre-K, reduced prescription prices (because Medicare will be able to negotiate) These are 2 that are notables. And needed. I’ll think on the negatives.
  3. Bill passed. BOOM. (Shaka-Lakka-Lakka)
  4. 😁. Might have been a different brand, but… yeah.
  5. Why, indeed
  6. Fascists. Watching history repeat itself. And it didn’t even take a century to do so. Humanity didn’t learn its lesson. Shame on us.
  7. WTF. What has happened to my country… that is a sitting member of Congress.
  8. Yeah… I had no idea that happened. Thanks for sharing this Amd all the fuss overNJ’s supposed debacle is ridiculous. This state usually always throws out the Democrat after one term, so regardless of what talking heads said before the election, I knew it’d be close
  9. Just a side note to say - am I the only one who absolutely hates the insur commercials with the half guy/ half motorcycle? I loathe those. Like, gag.
  10. If a person of color had tried this, …. oh, never mind. We all know the answer , and that in this case there will be absolutely no repercussion.
  11. Listen, I’m seeing that attempt as a win-win in their eyes. If nobody questioned it, and he got to vote , without it being reversed… and he’s won….. win for him. If he lost, and nobody questioned it, but later caught it, he can claim “see? How easy it was to cast an illegal vote? I’m sure Terry McA has thousands of his minions that did this!”… a win for him. Probably thought “what the hell. Let’s try it”
  12. This is the trolliest troll post maybe ever. 😂
  13. Both the prosecutors and the defenses have an image of who they want as a jury, and neither get exactly what they want. I found the voir dire the most interesting of the processes. Sometimes you’re the wrong sex, wrong age, wrong color. And then sometimes, your profession is a problem/or/asset. Often, as soon as I said I worked for a bank, any financial case I’d get tossed. Other times, when I answered that I was a business analyst… well, you don’t want anybody analyzing what happened… both prose and defense would stand and say “excused”. lol
  14. The times I’ve been on jury duty only strengthened my resolved to never pursue a life of crime… because no way in hell would I ever want to take a chance with my freedom in front of “a jury of my peers”. 🙄 People are scary.. and jurors , for the most part, don’t pay attention either during the trial or in deliberations. They also lie about having pre-conceived notions of innocence or guilt.
  15. …. Because someone with the last name Ingraham knows how Italian Americans in NJ think. 😂 She’s a chooch. Non fai scumbari .
  16. The GOP is feeling NO sting from Jan 6. That is the very sad truth.
  17. I would guess that the supposition was that since there WAS the vaccine developed, people would…, you know…. take the damn thing. Instead, whole pockets of this country decided that taking/not taking the shot was a test of your love for ‘Merica. Who the f would have predicted that?? Stupidity reigns supreme.
  18. I think I need to send him a pussy hat.
  19. The FDNY has a larger # of unvaccinated , (not terribly high#), but some that population called in sick today, and are looking to claim religious exemptions. Just take the damn shot
  20. Ok, I just got to tell you I’ve always LOVED that movie.
  21. The fact that cases are increasing is a cause for alarm because (and I don’t care if the % is small) inevitably, some of the infected WILL get sick enough to have life long issues or even die. Call me crazy, but that still matters to me.
  22. A whole lot of people should, indeed, to be walking the plank on this one. Tragic…. But more than that, negligence that may in fact be criminal for some involved. That whole industry needs to stop being coddled when it comes to safety on the sets. The stars are usually protected somewhat, but the regular Joe’s who work on the sets etc. seem to be mere fodder. The powers that be couldn’t give a you-know-what about them.
