@WarnerCrocker After years of hearing the MSM normalize Trump’s hatred and insanity, it felt good to finally hear the frustration that we’re all feeling, from a well-respected voice.

@StephanieMoore @owasow Precisely. If the real plan was to take control of public discourse, at any cost, Musk has had some success there. No wonder the Saudis are pleased.

@DeweyOxberger @inthehands Also, with #Walgreens I found that their online scheduling didn’t match the reality of #vaccine availability in each store.

I called three locations and spoke with three frazzled employees who provided different ETA’s for the vaccine at their store.

I went with the store that thought they’d get it the soonest (1-2 weeks), but they advised that I call on the scheduled day to make sure that it’s really there.

@WarnerCrocker Apple always has to class it up a bit. I suppose the other iPhone colors are midnight, ivory, and… uh… ambiguity?

Geez, losing Bob Newhart is like losing a family member, when it’s someone that you grew up with.

What a great entertainer, and great human being.

@RickiTarr If all goes well, in a little over three months, we won’t have to worry about Trump any more.

We’ll still have his minions to contend with, but at least Trump himself will be removed from the bully pulpit.

@WarnerCrocker I always thought that gold futures were a sucker’s game. But now fool’s gold futures are looking good. Go figure.

@GottaLaff Trump isn’t getting a tidal wave of support from his party. It’s more like a backed up sewer.

@Free_Press MAGA Mike blinked. He badly needs a win. Or something that has the appearance of a win.

Chances are, whatever they negotiate (to allow the aid package to move forward) will get a different spin treatment from each party, with both sides claiming victory.

@hypolite @clacke @blakeisawolf Confirmed. Aside from the tax deductions, I was skeptical that the charities even got all of the donations. This short clip from the Today show clarifies how it works.
