All the more reason to use a VPN.

What would happen if Fauci accused Rand Paul of not taking his medication?

I have no idea what hot boxing is.

You've just leap into Reverse Centaur land. Time to update your resume and find another place to work.

I still think she should walk into Trump's NYC HQ with a deputy and movers. Start with the CFO's office and clean out all the computers. Then the server room. Then Trump's office.

You'll likely need a SWAT team to hold the on-site security in check. And move quickly before someone can get a bank to issue a cashiers check. The drives in those servers will be worth more than the judgement when sold on eBay.

Don't laugh. A guy did this to either Wells Fargo or BofA during the 2000s. The "mistakenly" foreclosed on his home which didn't have a mortage with the bank. He cleaned out most of a branches computers and office furniture before the branch manager gave him a cashier's check.

Any socks that do this get repurposed to apply shoe polish. There are other uses, but that's the one I recall using them for last.

Right after Melon Husk bought Twitter, I posted something about Howard Schultz (CEO of Starbucks) while he was questioned about his anti-union activities in front of Congress. I wanted to slap the smile off his face into next Tuesday. That got me a 7 day ban. I didn't log in for a month. When I came back, my feed was just as nasty.

Mom told me this story about a little old man that a reporter saw praying against the Western Wall (of the original Temple) in Jerusalem. The man was there for over a week during the morning and afternoons. The reporter wanted some insight into this man's devotion, so he asked him about it.

The old man pondered the question then said "In the mornings, I come and pray for peace. Then I have a bit of a nosh and come back in the afternoon I pray again for peace."

"Well, given what's happening right now, what's that like?" asked the reporter.

"It's like talking to a wall." said the old man sadly.

Does Nutella count?

I read that some cities are putting garbage bags over existing Flock cameras. Would that work in AZ where it's so hot the bags are likely to melt?
