Ummm....my son asked me once if colour had already been invented when I was a child. He honestly thought that my childhood was in black and white because I'm just that old.

I'm not a drinker, but my closest friends are. One of them is completely against sugar, but will drink whenever she can (2 glasses of wine with dinner). I've always wondered if all the benefits of avoiding sugar is negated by all her drinking.

This is chilling!!! Trump gave the Pentagon control of 170 square miles of U.S. landβ€”now a militarized zone called the β€œNew Mexico National Defense Area.” This move walks the line of Posse Comitatus and edges toward the Insurrection Actβ€”to go after migrants. But it doesn’t have to stop there.

I guess Tesla is in so much doo doo that he needs to keep shoving it down people's throats.

Is that the real recorded outgoing message? "...will call you back if your problem is deemed unwasteful."??? If this is the real outgoing message, then holy F!

If he thinks that this will help boost Tesla, why doesn't his buddies buy Tesla stocks?

Idk. Everything the US does these days (especially when it pertains to "helping" Ukraine) should be scrutinized. I just don't feel they can be trusted at this point as the world can clearly see who the US is aligning with.

Pretty soon, even US citizens will be subjected to some form of punishment for speaking ill of the dear leader. Better do something fast before they get there.
