: If I had the money, I'd almost certainly seek out this house and see if I could buy it from whomever owns the land it's on. Then I'd have it repaired back to as close to its original as possible.

@NorthWestBird: Considering the size of the U.S. federal budget, not much. We'd have saved multiple times more each year if the Pentagon has purchased a handful (really, a handful) fewer jet-fighters or maybe two fewer bombers.

Everyone asks what we could've done at home, and the answer is almost invariably "dick".

@willmckinley: Bobby Boyett produced "Valerie" in 1986 and was the show's producer until the end. He's my late step-father's only first-cousin, and I remember hearing first, before the newspapers, about the BTS drama with Harper and her over over-episode pay increases for them. The network canned her and had her killed off and replaced with Sandy Duncan.

Rhoda was a fantastic character, and Harper was really talented, and she was tough in negotiations, even to the point it cost her.

@S_r_stone @MLClark: They didn’t have it so much as they had community notes, though at one point very late in the game and not long before the takeover they had something that would give you a heads up if you posted a link to an article that had been flagged more than some number of times by users as false.

@Dane: I have some sympathy but not much compassion for him. A lot of those folks reek a tremendous amount of havoc on a disproportionately large swath of the general population, not just their locals, but the nation and even internationally. And they do it for a buck. They do it for the thrill of it.

: Well, I just heard a news report that Baron Trump will be serving as a Florida delegate at the RNC.

In that case, then the gloves can come off when it comes to him as well. He is in the family business, as it were.

@BookWorm33333: It won’t, though. They just shout that they told everybody so, and then they’ll double down some more. If you want to scare the Christian Fascists, remove all tax exemptions for everything and anything having to do with churches anywhere within the borders of the United States of America. That includes writing off tithes and donations to them. It also means taxing the real estate.

Oh, and put various domestic Christian groups on terrorism watchlists.

@Dbot: This is business as usual. I am certain there are different factions within the administration constantly jockeying to do what they want to do, and people are just scrambling, including Biden. There’s doubtless a lot of horse-trading going on.
