Not sure if I'm being whooshed here... but Reagan's VP went on to become president, whose son also became president after his other son, who was governor of a state, threw a wrench in that state's election machine to muddy the waters, leading to contested recounts, interrupted by a "mob," leading to the Supreme Court saying it's too dangerous to continue, and awarding said state's electoral votes to Reagan's VP's son, effectively handing him the presidency. The American people got two wars out of the deal and a veritable Who's Who list of Bush family associates whose names keep popping up suspiciously even to the present day.

Unless you're saying that Vance is just as knee-deep in the backstage corruption, in which case I agree, he's a dangerous slimeball.

This is the sort of thing that could be actionable, in criminal or civil court.

The rich:

That's ridiculous. Nobody knows how long a gallon is.

Getting a heat pump has been on my want-to-do list for years. But even though my furnace is aging, it still works so it's been hard to justify while there were other issues going on. Accelerating adoption is only going to make the process easier when the time comes.

Yeah, this shit happens all the time in NJ. Related to someone powerful? Here, have a free political position!

Andy Kim is getting my vote in the primary but with Murphy getting anointed like this, the full weight of the machine is going to be behind her.

Is it weird, as a tail end gen x/elder millennial, to really hope Lehrer was right about this one?

We just watched that one last night after a week and a half of dealing with heavy shit that still isn't done yet. Not really the episode I would have chosen to dip the toes back in after trauma, but that's what was up next. Still a great ep.

There's a thousand mile expanse of woods and bullshit across the northern states where you could just walk through the forests into Canada.

I've always wanted to get eaten by a moose.

And if you remove the beard, you get my brother in law. Who is admittedly not as famous as Lincoln, but I'm more interested in creeping out my sister in law.

It's the black one.
