@Manigarm God is really an undercover police dog?
That, or the person who designed the flag was stoned.
@ryanhoulihan We only have CVS here.
@davidtoddmccarty I just switched to a practice of nurse practitioners. No specialty, so they really concentrate on the whole health aspect. It’s really refreshing.

I hate to ask, but I don’t know what else to do. Our car insurance and phone bill are due and we need groceries. The cell phone is vital for my wife’s work at the hospital. Our friend who moved out left us a ton of debt and we are trying to stabilize after that. We need $700 to get thru this. If you can boost or donate we would greatly appreciate it. We have CashApp (bishopgodsey) and Venmo (bishopgodsey). You can also send via PayPal at paypal.me/GregoryGodsey. Thank you! #MutualAid #helpplz

The GOP has decided that their base loves a good McGuffin.
Examples:
Monica Lewinsky's Dress!
Barrack Obama's Birth Certificate!
Hillary Clinton's Emails!
Hunter Biden's Laptop!
It's not important that they ever see the McGuffin or have a resolution of that storyline. They just need SOMETHING to draw and keep their attention in the first two acts.
Every election cycle has one good McGuffin in the GOP story.

My daughter burned her fingers pretty badly a few weeks ago and I had to take her to urgent care. I would like you to look at this bill and note the cost of medical supplies. Those supplies? Gauze and burn cream. THAT IS IT. This should be fucking illegal
This will make no sense to anyone but me
@jepyang I loved that series! @RamenCatholic

It’s so nice to have moved somewhere with neighbors who follow the same NFL team! Tonight was our 2nd game together, and it was a blast. #WhoDat!

The media's response to Trump violationing his pretrial conditions is "I'm a big supporter of the 1st Amendment."
How about saying, "I'm a big supporter of the rule of law & the criminal justice system. I believe in the safety of witnesses & a juror pool that can fairly decide a case."
When defendant #Trump says things that violate his pretrial conditions, we MUST put rule of law & the safety of the witnesses first, NOT Trump's FACTUALLY incorrect idea of what he can & can not say.
