@Eaglesfanintn I'm in the same boat - can't wait for kickoff. I get not having a horse in the race but people seem to be trashing anyone with an interest in the game. When something's not my cup of tea I don't go out of my way to put down those of us pumped up for this game.


@DanielCoopreal as Elaine Bennis asked in Seinfeld, "how do you guys walk around with those things?" Twitter has become one of "those things."

@Spagesgallo1 we just adopted a rescue dog after being dogless for about a year. What joy that animal brings every day. You folks saving these creatures are modern day saints.

@Spagesgallo1 Yay you! Puppies can't say thanks, so I will. Thanks!

@voltronic It's helpful, but it can get confused by secondary sounds (TV, Radio, blenders) Here's a video:

@Kimmycott the same - I just can't watch the murder of a young life. I just can't do it.

I'm a retired person and the AARP doesn't represent my best interests at all when it matters - before the election.

In the mail yesterday I got a letter from AARP warning me about a republican-based bill, The Trust Act which is going to attack Social Security benefits of retirees. Their letter solicited donations to fight this bill.
In July of 2022 I sent an email to the CEO of AARP asking why they're supporting the election of pols that were going to attack Social Security. I received a response telling me that I was misinterpreting the motives of those pols receiving AARP endorsements. Bullshit.

@pendrag Rest Easy David - the song that just always jumps out at me that he wrote and sang so well - Wooden Ships. There's so many great songs.

AmazonSmiles charity donation gets discontinued. Jassy cutting costs I see. Well he also cut back on how much drivers make too. Prices of everything have gone up. Pay accordingly.

Don't be a Jack Ass Jassy

@Myana @MrGoat I tried to use it regularly but needed to do summersaults to get it to apply to each order using a special site address, instead of having it automatically tied to my account. It wasn't impactful because it wasn't applied fairly.

Republicans raised the debt ceiling three times during the Trump administration with no fuss at all. They never felt it necessary to try to persuade Trump to cut spending, and the Freedom Caucus didn’t utter a peep as he massively increased the deficit. These hostage situations are reserved for times when the GOP holds the House and a Democrat is in the White House. Shocking, I know.

Day four of hanging with our new puppy. Sage is almost nine months old and learning so much. It’s wonderful to watch her fascination with everything!

@damianreloaded it’s easier when you think that they’re all morons.
