Here's a tale of 2 Governors:

1. Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders signed a law rolling back requirements that the state verify ages of workers under 16 & provide them with work certificates permitting them to work.

2. Gov. Walz signed a landmark bill into law, making Minnesota one of only eight states in the county with a universal free lunch program, which entitles all Minnesota students to hot meals at school.

“But many writers loved WordStar, a word processor notably good for actual writing. As computers moved on from DOS to Windows, and word programs grew to encompass features that strayed far from organizing words on a page, WordStar hung back, whether in DOS emulation or in the hearts of its die-hard fans.”

It was painful. Apple’s Pages is better. Probably the only one I’ve never used was Nisus.

45 didn't wear a bandage over his ear to keep an injury clean. He wore a bandage over his ear to cover up an injury that simply isn't there. 4 days later we see there's not a nick to the ear, not even dry skin and our FBI literally changed their story and...(more)

Heres an interesting leaked clip apparently by the Harris campaign where Trump admits ties to Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.

Hey folks, ya gotta start masking up and keeping a safe social distance out there. The latest spike is insane. Presently, based on wastewater samples, there are 900,000 new infections each day. In the country, one person out of every 37 people is infected with COVID. This is not a drill.

what ab is dealing w/ - the fires of jasper, canmore/banff, & so on, has been made so much worse by her & her party.

she cut an ~$180 mill fire budget by over $70 mill. what she cut? all the early detection safeguards & rapid response teams. when she says they've spent more than budgeted, it's b/c they've had to since the loss of preventative measures.

Elon Musk is tricking voters in swing states to giving him their personal info for his Political PAC, which could help Trump. The website claims to offer a voter registration option. If the person is in a swing state, the user is "directed to a detailed personal info form, prompted to enter their personal info, but not directed to a registration page and receives a thank you page only. The ads run on Facebook, Instagram, and Google through YouTube.
