@Mr_Husky1 Our great grandson tried to pronounce our grandsons name (Noble) but it came out "Uncle Bacon". So he'll forever be known as Uncle Bacon.

Admit it: Your kid mispronounced a word three years ago and now the whole family says it that way. What's the word in your house? (We still say 'pasketti' and I’m not stopping anytime soon.)

How did 70 senators so happily give Ukraine hundreds of billions of $, but we can't get election integrity restored with 51 votes? You are all criminals, and you suck. @SenateGOP @SenateDems

@BuzzPatterson Coming back to the US on a work trip, we hit unexpected severe turbulence. Knocked the stewardesses off their feet and drinks were raining from overhead. Still landed safely.

Quick flying tutorial for those who get nervous flying. Turbulence is normal, expected, completely safe, and all aircraft are built for it. It’s not in any way, shape, or form, dangerous. It may be uncomfortable but that’s the worst that can happen. The pilots up front are constantly seeking “smoother rides” which is why we change altitudes fairly frequently looking for the smooth air. We’re talking with ATC, and other carriers, to search out the smooth air. Also, when we turn on the “seat belt” sign it’s to remind you to stay seated and to make the company attorneys happy. You never know when you might hit an unexpected pocket of rough air. I’ve flown through some of the worst turbulence you can imagine on several occasions. What we call “severe.” It’s not fun but it’s not dangerous. Pilots don’t like it either. But, you are safe. I promise.

@SenateGOP Oh shut up. You people are worthless. I can understand your low approval ratings because you think you're playing some grand game that we ordinary folk are not privy to. How about doing your damn job instead?

50,000 TSA agents are working without pay, struggling to pay their mortgage and buy groceries.  But Democrats are “giddy” with the pain they’re causing.  They need to stop punishing Americans to protect illegal alien criminals.

Hello Senator Thune, Let's expose what you're really doing with "reconciliation." You announced it yesterday, eleven months after the House passed the SAVE America Act. You're not trying to pass this bill. You're trying to kill it in a way you can blame on process. Here's how we know: Reconciliation requires the Senate parliamentarian to rule that provisions are "budgetary." Citizenship verification is not budgetary. Photo ID mandates are not budgetary. The parliamentarian will gut the bill. Then you'll shrug and say "we tried." We see through you. Meanwhile, you WON'T use the tools that actually work: Rule XIX limits each senator to two speeches per legislative day. Keep the Senate in continuous session, file cloture daily, and the filibuster exhausts in ~12-20 days. You dismissed it as "complicated." Because if you tried and succeeded, you'd have to actually pass the bill. Harry Reid nuked the filibuster in 2013 when he wanted results. Mitch McConnell changed Senate rules THREE times and canceled the August recess. Chuck Schumer used reconciliation within months on a 50-50 Senate. You have 53 seats. You've changed nothing, canceled nothing, and waited eleven months. Now let's talk donors: • Goldman Sachs: $150K to you - top H-1B user • Google: $75K - lobbies against E-Verify • Meta: $72.5K - Zuckerberg's FWD[.]us pushes mass immigration • Wells Fargo: $90K - banks undocumented immigrants Same corporations sponsor Punchbowl News, where you sit for "Fly Out Days" which nobody watches except Congress staffers and K Street lobbyists who pays premium bucks for legislative intelligence. Their reporter then telegraphs to the audience the SAVE Act "will ultimately fail." Corporate money flows to you AND to the outlet that frames your inaction as inevitable. We see the loop. You called grassroots anger a "paid influencer ecosystem." YOU are the paid influencer. You take the wrong side of a 80% issue because you are indistinguishable from a K Street mouthpiece, and an ineffective one to boot who won't bend the rules to get anything passed. What we want: 1. Force a real talking filibuster. 2. Stop hiding behind process. 3. Pass the SAVE America Act. YOU will become the reason that we will have our butts kicked in midterms. Not Candace Owens, not Nick Fuentes, not anyone else. You and you alone, and all because you want to make the 200 or so viewers of Punchbowl Fly Out Days happy. You're living in a K Street information bubble, addicted to the comforts and praises of lobbyists masquerading as journalists. You mistake the steak and martini dinners you get invited to as your own constituents. You are not "moderate." The SAVE America Act has 98% support among Republicans. Name one other thing that has 98% support. You are an extreme minority who prides himself on being a calm leader, when in reality you are well in the running for the most ineffective Majority leader of all time. Prove me wrong. Do the bare modicum of effort. Not symbolic. Actual effort. Cancel the recess. Get SAVE America Act passed.

During the first airing of my Star Trek series where a kiss was objectionable; many southern stations pulled the episode & condemned the show. Using today’s vernacular it would absolutely be called“woke DEI crap”because it went against “norms” of society for its time. Not a lot seems to have changed.🤷🏼😑

Long time IPSC competitor and Carbine Competitor. Liberals banned my guns. Told me to buy other models not on list. Spent 2500.00 on a new suitable rifle. 2 weeks later it gets banned and told to buy another model. Spent another 2800 and it gets banned. This is not just.

@michelleakin My ex-wife's son was working at a data entry center. The IT manager told him if he helped set up a new department (80+ computers, all the wiring, etc), he'd move from a keyer to an IT tech. When the job was done, the IT manager told him, "Yeah, corporate won't let us hire you".

I interviewed for a receptionist position at a big post-production house in nyc once, and I was brought in for a trial. It was not clear from what they said to me, however, that it was JUST a trial, they made it sound like I had the job. basically you work the whole day and then they tell you if you got it. AND I was working alongside the other girl up for the position (who seemed like a moron, so even though they did a bait and switch on me, I was still pretty confident I would get the job) Nope. They called me the next day to say I didn’t get it. I was devastated, but in time I reasoned that the office was kind of sterile and crazy. No phone or internet use allowed during work. I would have died. I continued applying elsewhere. it was crickets for the longest time, but then multiple interview offers came in on the same day!! in between interviews I grabbed a sandwich and popped a squat on a bench to eat when my phone rang. unknown number but of course I picked up because it could be any of the interview places. to my shock, it was that big post production house that had tried me on for a day and then let me go. >heyyy so it didn’t work out with the other girl. yeah she was a nepo hire if I’m honest, I wanted to hire you. we’re wondering if you’re still available? oh. *flips hair* well. I’ll have to let you know, I have three interviews today. hehehehehehehe!!!! anyway I was so soured on those people I really didn’t wanna work there anyway but I needed a job so I went ahead with my day like, ok let’s see who I like! my last interview was for the same position but at a much smaller post production house. I loved the vibe there. It was a smaller much friendlier office in a better (for me) part of town. when I sat down with the hiring manager, towards the end of the convo she asked if I was interviewing anywhere else Well. Ackshually 😏 [name of big company] just called me to offer me the receptionist job. Hiring manager froze. Wide eyes. Repeated the name. Said hang on one second. Picks up a phone and dials a few numbers. Says “hi can you come down?” And then after a pause “yes, already.” She was calling the CEO. He came in and she filled him in on who I am and the fact that this big company wants me. He immediately offered me a tour and took me around to sell me on the place. Offered to have me start as soon as possible. Dear reader, calling back the schmuck at the other company to tell him “no thank you” was one of the best moments of my life.

@shebringsjoy The purpose of insurance seems to me to bilk every last cent they can from you with as minimum outlay as possible.

What is the point of insurance, even? My glasses broke last week- it’s been almost two years since I had an eye exam, so I scheduled an appointment for this afternoon. I went through the whole process, only to find at the end that the exam itself was $45, and the ugly glasses, with no glare reduction, coatings of any type at all, single vision, etc…. Are $321. I literally just paid the exam copay, and left. So I just paid for a service I can’t even utilize, when I am having trouble putting groceries on the table. Note: I am coke bottle glasses near-sided. I cannot drive, cook, etc, without my glasses. Like- why isn’t this covered by my insurance? This is worse than the fact that dental care isn’t covered. This is what I mean when I say I am tired of living this way. What is the point of this?

It’s funny watching the comments. “Did you watch it?”🙄 No, I’ve only seen the one clip with passing of the glasses that I made fun of several weeks ago. I’ve seen bits and pieces of the other series when I did my documentaries for a primer on them.
