You see, "tossed salad and scrambled eggs" are things that are mixed up, like his patients...and then he says he doesn't know what to do with them, cuz he never really helps much...and then he says "their callin' again"...like every week forever and ever...

I've embarked on careful and extensive analysis and have determined that I achieve peak performance on odd- and even-numbered days.

Stopped for a short breather at the turnaround point on my bike ride this morning...

Decades of data show that sentence severity, including life in prison or the death penalty, does virtually nothing to reduce crime. Fact.

Calendar check...

I guess if I drank Martinis, I would order them dirty and very dry, much like this particular type of joke construction that really is my jam...

Roughly half the country gets 80 percent of the votes in the Senate, and the other half of the country gets 20 percent. Might not be optimal.

Overheard: "Is that guy at the next table listening to us?"

"Is Don on the phone???"

What kind of tortured logic do we use to believe that cats are clean animals after watching them bathe with their tongues, would you shake my hands after I washed them that way???

American consumers expect choices and American companies claim they can compete. Government intervention in the first short-circuits the second. Economic reality doesn't bend to protectionism, it just passes the bill to the consumer. #BYD

Is there such a thing as consequences to international military intervention?

Peppermint candies and Cinnamon candies need to pick different colors...

Delightful...

What's that saying about the more things change, the more they stay the same? @kevinmkruse.bsky.social

Oh, you want to see what happens when you dial pure quirkiness past 11? Colin Farrell, Rachel Weisz, John C. Reilly with Yorgos Lanthimos at the helm... #TheLobster

Howcome bras and batteries use the same size scale?

Is Hegseth's job in jeopardy? Kinda sounds like it... Suboptimal when the US military is engaged in high-stakes overseas ops...lives on the line.

Are transnational #gremlins out here going goblin-mode running political influence campaigns via unhinged tactics?

Maricopa County proves vote-by-mail can be exceptionally secure & transparent. From multi-tiered signature checks & bipartisan counting teams to automated status txts, voters know exactly where their ballot is. Every US voter should have access to vote-by-mail with this lvl of communication.
