Touch screens in cars are evidence that the auto industry is actively trying to increase auto accidents.

The crazy part about Fetterman is that he wasn't tied down by the Democratic leadership. They backed McCormick, a pro-business centrist, during the senate primary, and they didn't want him as lieutenant governor before that. He was a progressive wildcard that touted his independence from the party. He was always pro-Israel, but he was also pro-healthcare for all, pro-marijuana legalization, supported human rights and a progressive tax code. His heel-turn has been shocking and baffling, and lost him most of his supporters. Fetterman could be primaried from the left or yhe right, and he will probably lose either way. He could switch parties, but there aren't enough batshit Republicans in PA to make up for his flaws.

This is excellent, thank you! I'm literally sitting here icing my hands because I weeded a single 2x2 foot patch under my mailbox last weekend.

This feels like bait. If you're serious, then go up the chain of command. Everyone has a boss. Your sister's counselor should not be trying to convince your sister that her brother needs to change. Your sister's counselor really should have no opinion of kids (or adults) not under their charge, and if she does have an opinion, she should keep it to herself.

You and your sister probably have more allies than you suspect.

Not only does he have rhythm, he has an entire subset of rhythms named after him.

If it were manifest, we wouldn't be having the discussion. A single example would prove me wrong.

Cool, now get McGinley, Flynn, and Reyes.

When I was young, the phrase "dance like nobody's watching" became popular. I remember thinking it was true, most of my anxiety about dancing was a fear of being judged by someone else. I'd see other people dance and think that they aren't doing anything special. They aren't dancing well or doing crazy moves. They are just jumping around and having a good time. "Jump Around" was like just one of five hit dance songs about jumping. But I resisted because I thought people would think my dancing looked silly. And they'd be right, I was and remain a terrible dancer. I'm awkward, arthritic, and lacking in coordination and rhythm.

But there was no social media. No cell phone cameras. No internet. If someone did get a picture or even a video, it might be months before a small select group of people saw it. Hell, even if your bad dancing somehow made the news, it would still only be seen by the regional viewers watching that evening.

Today, if you're a bad dancer, you could be filmed without your knowledge or permission, and become a viral sensation for millions of people to see.

If I were young today, there's no chance in hell I'd be out on the dance floor.

“Tonight, Missouri lynched another innocent Black man,” NAACP President Derrick Johnson said in a statement.

I heard someone say this in a video recipe, followed by way more cheese than you should eat at once. It occurred to me that the phrase means ample, not nutritious.

Has this ever happened to you? There's a fly in the house, buzzing around you, so you go to the cabinet to get the swatter. But as soon as you start wielding it, the little bastard disappears. You set it down, and now he's back, taunting you.

Ok so obviously flies don't taunt, but do they have the capacity to recognize, even instinctually, that I'm holding a deadly weapon?
