Kristi Noem fired!

I wouldn’t consider it totally tragic to see a situation analogous to Libya after we toppled the regime. Multiple competing factions harmful mostly...

Watched the K drama Wok of Love, a chef in a fancy restaurant loses his job and fiancee on the same day, he vows revenge and decides to take over the...

I am a hopeless luddite for understanding some of the AI functions, but are you saying a powerful home computer reduces the need for the big data...

Well all things being equal, a better commute is always a good thing.

Oh no, not an unhappy happy! Seriously though, I hate when that happens. I'm pretty sure that spending more time in the grocery store wasn't one of...

I've been told I have a WICKED Boston accent (a college professor said I should take elocution classes to get rid of it), so I suspect y'all coming...

My estranged DD moved to TX some years ago. She's a rather obnoxious and intense person and was only there a year or so before adopting y'all...

Rant - my grocery store has decided to move things around. It's been going on for at least 3 weeks now and my weekly shopping trips have been very...

Congratulations, Klunick!!! Wishing you a smooth and successful transition!

I grew up using the word and still do on occasion. I think y'all should use it if y'aint already.

I use y'all in written stuff sometimes--as "y'all" might have noticed :) I never use it in speech. I'm still a "you guys" person--although maybe...

Wow, that Balcer situation is pretty awful.

It seems y'all is moving into our vocabulary in many places. I grew up with it along with yes ma'am and no sir which I kind of miss. The one I am...

I am hopeful it will be but honestly, if it's not, it will still be 1000% better than my current situation. I have felt hopeless and trapped for at...

congrats, Klunick! Hope it's all you want it to be!!

Those moments - the loving, the connection, the knowing you did your best by your mom, are what will keep you afloat when things are dark and stormy...

Well, I kinda like all y'all, whatever polite language you use. (all y'all is plural of y'all, for those who think y'all is plural, lol!!) We're...

Recently it was revealed that Andrea/Andrew is harassing and assaulting female inmates in the Maine women’s prison ( for females) where he was...

Rosa, this is a moving end-of-life story and I don’t know how it could be any better circumstances for your mother.

It is such a blessing for all of you that you are there with her through her transition.

Yesterday morning, she choked a bit on the syringe of water I gave her, so hospice RN said at this point we should only use moistened toothettes to...

Great news! Congratulations, and I hope you enjoy the new job.

Rogar: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss," ran though my head as well.

I too find y'all to be off-putting, although I guess I'm lucky to have very limited exposure to "influencers."

Oh, most definitely a good thing!! Previous Supervisor completely tanked our office and it's just getting worse because the new Supervisor is just...

I took some time today to install and test the open-source "Gwen 3.5" AI model, from China, released just a few days ago by Alibaba (strange world,...

this reminds me that I still have a second season of landman to watch. I had forgotten it because I wanted to get our TV set up so that DH could...

I’ve been watching mediocre video for what seems like months now, so when I saw The Forsytes show up on Netflix, I thought I would watch it again. ...

“Mama” has made its way up to lower midwest. Isn’t that Hispanic influence?

And speaking of sports, Elis Lundholm made history in winter Olympics 2026 by being the first openly transgender person to compete. Lundholm...

Better than being called “mama” here in the south! But, y’all sounds like a hillbilly too…. someone with little education.

This meme is both funny or maddening, take your pick. The same chart is true when you plug in the topic of “murders and violent assaults...

Oh oh oh! I LOVE “ya’ll” because it is soft and southern/Western. I picked it up when I lived in the southwest decades ago. It seems so friendly to...

I see where the CIA has been covertly arming and training American friendly Kurdish forces in northern Iran.

It might be one of the better books I will read this year, but it's definitely on the sappy feel good side of fiction. The place and characters...

I'm with you, Iris, on the talkers....particularly loud talkers. There's a lady in my circle of acquaintances who is quite loud and is always heard...

congrats, Klunick....I think! ;)

Major milestone completed so good for you!

Got notified today that I have successfully jumped through all the hoops for this new job I was offered almost a month ago. HR will be calling me...

For your sake and her sake Rosa, I hope this doesn’t go on too long. But man, people can live a long time without eating, it’s the lack of hydration...

So sorry rr. thinking of you.

Sending you a virtual hug and also peaceful wishes for your mom.

I think they would call the situation "fluid", but what I've heard is that the Royal Guard is still very strong and probably loyal. Possibly as many...

There are two sides to his legacy, but he could be viewed in relative terms to the Ayatollah as kindly.

So sorry, Rosa, and grateful that you guys are there and have been able to take such good care of her.

Triggernometry podcast guys had two Middle Eastern experts give a good program about the situation in Iran with some details I didn’t know, but in...

The Shah was not a kindly man…

Latest news I'm getting is that the most likely successor as leader is the Ayatollah's son. Another religious hardliner. It reminded me of the Who...

Saw on the news today WE may not have all we need… ? And, yes, hell IS unleashed. Weird talks abound about armageddon…

So sorry RR. Sending prayers and good vibes your way….

So sorry, rosa. Hugs to you. Your mom has been so lucky to have had you and your sister providing such good care.

Sending prayers to you all, rr.

We are very close to the finish line; we are trading off time doing round the clock vigil between me, sis, and our caregiver friend. Mom hasn't...

We have barred owls out back. They are now considered invasive as they're pushing out the endangered spotted owls.

Cottage pie with broccoli and cauliflower.

Very informative! Thanks for posting.

Very cool. Once had an adult and a juvenile screech owl land on my laundry tree. They stayed in the area for about a week and could be heard...

Some pretty cool ones there! I shared this with the grandson. He'll enjoy them.
