@TheHistoryOfTh2 I had 3 thoughts: 1. Did he steal the keys when he left? 2. Are you really telling me can’t a private locksmith can’t open those doors? 3. How many Yosemite visitors lock themselves in the bathrooms? That seems like a larger issue in itself.

How is it even possible there is only one such guy? Either this is BS, or it is a degree of managerial incompetence that few people who work in the private sector can even comprehend.

"At California’s Yosemite National Park, the Trump administration fired the only locksmith on staff on Friday. He was the sole employee with the keys and the institutional knowledge needed to rescue visitors from locked restrooms." And at other parks:

Sure, it will be important to cast a critical look at Harris's strategy, but let's not forget that Joe Biden's pride and his team's deception are big parts of this story:

I turned on the garbage disposal for 2 seconds bc like most Americans Afghanistan bores me so I thought I would do some dishes and by the time I turned off the garbage disposal he was like “she said she’s not black” or something and I need to know what that transition was

Took almost 4 minutes to get through TSA at O’Hare. I might as well have spent more money to take a two day long train ride

@jessesingal Great. I started to listen before you posted this disclaimer. Now I also have to sue you for putting me in such precarious legal jeopardy.

@MattWelch Was it the one about smiling at a stranger? Because that seems like a terrible idea!

@scottlincicome I’ve missed the articles on how much wealth Bezos, Gates and Musk have lost. Good thing there’s no wealth tax, those guys would be due a huge rebate.

I would like to encourage this behavior -- on our last episode of @wethefifth, we asked for interesting/crazy/illuminating episodes in U.S. history that are not commonly taught in schools, but should be much better known. Please add to the list!
WhiskeyWolf@TheWhiskeyWolf

@MattWelch you were soliciting cool, unknown historical figures and events on We The Fifth. Meet George Drouillard, Lewis and Clark’s ace hunter, trapper, interpreter and cartographer. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Dr…. Guy was vital to that expedition getting anywhere

Watch how NISAR will help farmers from space by providing maps of developing crop areas on a global basis every two weeks, revealing changes down to field scale. Its all-weather imaging will provide timely info on trends that affect food security. nisar.jpl.nasa.gov

Seriously if everyone just watched the things I told them to watch the world would be a much better place. Sign up for all my dumb stuff, it’ll improve your life.

Value added of subscribing to the @SonnyBunch film criticism universe (Across the Movie Aisle and @SubBeacon) -- recommended films in the same genre. He and the gang steered us to *The Long Good Friday* a few weeks back. A major piece of filmmaking.
