Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

@iowahawkblog Ricky Wilson is the most underrated guitarist of the rock era.

IDGAF, this is one of the greatest bands ever to exist

@akafaceUS Years ago I was looking at diagram of the facility with many 10x10 units, but there was a single 20x20 unit. I asked the leasing agent about the one unique unit. So, a guy was living there and over time he rented 3 other adjacent 10x10 units, and removed the walls for more room!

This man spent two months living in a storage unit that had running water, electricity and everything.

@matthewwerth @DefiantLs I was there when someone struck John Cougar Melloncamp with a bottle while performing and knocked him unconscious. Got medical treatment, stitches and finished the set. Respect. That was over 40 years ago, and people were doing stupid things then too.

@DefiantLs This is crazy, when did people forget how to behave in public.

Country music star Riley Green left bleeding on stage after being hit by a cellphone thrown at him

@BruinJustine @StephanAJensen Mine sweepers, frigates and destroyers. Realistically, two weeks or more to be in the gulf.

@StephanAJensen What relevant assets could Europe expeditiously send to the Strait that would actually be helpful?

Europe should not auto-decline Trump's request for ships in the strait of Hormuz, but treat it as an opportunity to put pressure on him re. Ukraine. Mutually beneficial deal is: Stop cozying up to putin and start supporting Ukraine again --> we send you ships.

@sunnyright No, as I am married to one, the man killed was just an unfortunate collateral damage to Trump’s “phony” assassination attempt as part of his election campaign. Furthermore, the wound to Trump’s ear was either faked or he cut himself deliberately. (I live with this daily.)

We’re now doing “the assassination attempt on Trump was faked” which implies that the man who was killed is also faking his death These people have lost their fucking minds

@MattWalshBlog The opportunity presented itself. Hamas and Hezbollah being largely destroyed to do Iran’s bidding. Russia unable to provide arms and support due to Ukraine. The U.S. and Israel destroyed much of Iran’s air defense months ago. Iranians are in a civil uprising. If not now…

The gaslighters are responding with more gaslighting. Yes I’m well aware that neocons have been calling for an Iran invasion forever. I obviously wasn’t talking about them. I’m referring to MAGA conservatives, America Firsters, Trump’s base. The people I talk to every single day. Attacking Iran was not a policy priority for them. And many were expressly against it. Trying to rewrite that history now is just grotesque. Insulting our intelligence. Make your case for this operation but just be honest. Come on.

I can't take the gaslighting, guys. I really can't. Conservatives are now running around saying "Iran has been waging war on us for 47 years." Okay then why didn't any of you call for an attack on Iran at any point until now? Why didn't you make a case for Trump "ending the war, not starting it" until precisely the moment when Trump did it? You and I both know that you are latching onto a talking point you never used until 45 seconds ago. You and I both know that almost every conservative influencer in the business was opposed to war with Iran until just now. And now you're trying to use justifications that stretch back decades. It doesn't make any sense. If you changed your mind, fine. Say so. Explain why. You're allowed to change your mind. I've changed my mind about things. But don't try to rewrite history. Be honest about it. There's too much at stake to play these games.

@sunnyright Going after The Axis of Weasels. Kim Jong Un is probably not sleeping well either.

Trump eliminating the heads of Venezuela and Iran in the same year would be nuts

@suzy_redd I have very similar condition to yours along with muscle tears. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy would be the ideal treatment, but insurance typically won’t cover it. My doctor injected saline for a few months using an ultrasound to guide the needle. It’s slower but worked.

After nearly a year of suffering with "hip flexor tendonitis," a few dozen physical therapy sessions and chronic gastritis from taking anti-inflammatories, I decided to see an orthopedic specialist yesterday instead of the PA who originally diagnosed me. This doctor is about 80 years old. He reviewed previous X-rays without ordering new ones and then examined me. He said, "Your problem is in the hip joint. Your muscles and tendons are fine." He thinks my hip labrum is torn, so he ordered an MRI. If he's correct and I've been suffering all this time needlessly, I am unlikely to ever see a PA for an initial diagnosis again.

@DLoesch My mother was a modern single woman who didn’t believe in using a belt. She used one of my plastic orange Hot Wheel tracks instead!

Some of y’all didn’t get beat with a flip flop as a kid and it shows.

@wil_da_beast630 Neil Young and Crazy Horse band. Mostly popular in the late-60’s and early-70’s. At times, he was also part of Crosby, Stills , Nash & Young and they were hugely popular.

Who? Was this guy famous?

@LadyDemosthenes 17. Honestly, I can say that I enjoyed all of them.

I’ve been to 12.

@wil_da_beast630 It’s what I call “The Scarlet AA” as the most qualified, talented, skilled individual who happens to be a black person will be unfairly branded as “Affirmative Action”. If one was facing an extremely complex medical procedure would one be concerned with a black physician?

This is, in fact, one of the major problems with DEI. If 60% of all (female, Hispanic) executives are diversity hires, some level of bias becomes logical.

@awstar11 Ever buy those foam earplugs I mentioned to you some time ago? They can be used as nose plugs too. I have a large box if you need some for your next unfortunate trip.

The number of people wearing open toe shoes on this flight is stomach churning.

@EvelynLouise8 Pretty common if the pipes are running through the attic while it’s 110 degrees outside, and much hotter in the enclosed attic! Air-conditioner ducts in the attic give much the same experience, as stagnant, hot duct air will be the first pushed into the home.

Funny work story- We had a call last week for hot water coming out of the cold taps & "in the toilet." I knew right off it was tenants from cooler climates not understanding the heat here. 2 things- 1. Buckle up, it's only going to get worse and 2. How did you know that the toilet water was hot???

@LukeGromen @SchnapsideeG So we are willing to educate Chinese students in the best university STEM programs, as we may be able to offset cheaper tuition for Americans? Maybe Lenin was correct— “When it comes time to hang the capitalists, they will vie with each other for the rope contract.”

@SchnapsideeG Because they are subsidizing US students and therefore by extension the US govt (which already has a deficit problem.)

“If all Chinese students were removed from all US colleges, there would be a wave of bankruptcies and closures among US private colleges.” -Administrator of private university in NE USA

@EvelynLouise8 In some ways it’s almost cheating, because if one word is a rabbit hole of options, then work on a different word and something be revealed.

@LetSleeping That's the super smart people game.

@jwludwig @JonahDispatch American-MADE cars including Nissan (TN & MS), Honda (OH & IN), Toyota (KY, IN & TX), and BMW (SC).

@JonahDispatch Literally coursing Americans to buy American cars.

Start the clock on wages and price controls.

Factually accurate, given historical tolls. Await various shrieking excuses.

@lloyd_peasley @JoanneMason11 I should have noted your humility immediately!

@LetSleeping @JoanneMason11 “Otherwise”? Don’t I get an exemption?

To the gentleman in my DM's asking how I got be "so fucking annoying": Practice, practice, practice.
