Were the votes counted on Dominion equipment?
Matt Gaetz looks like the villain in a Claymation film
He looks like a bobblehead of himself
I do want to know how Gaetz gets his eyebrows to look like circumflexes. You don’t usually see that outside cartoons.

The manner in which Mills brushes past the central error in Caliphate -- a very big error that he presided over! -- makes me quite distrustful of whatever else he has to say.
He says in this letter that he "helped create and produce" Caliphate. The show's credits give him standalone credit as "producer." When it won a Peabody, he posed holding it with Rukmini Callimachi. washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/medi…
But when the podcast was wrong, he says he's not to blame, because his bosses told him that. What? Image

Look it was a cute joke but don’t actually go into the pillow business okay?
Liberals do not actually need an alternative to MyPillow. The alternative is every other brand of pillow.
This is sadder than meme stocks

Rather alarmingly, both Kathryn Garcia and Andrew Yang say they want to rely on converting newly-depressed hotel and office properties into housing as a key part of a housing strategy. Shouldn’t Plan A be to reboot the economy so those hotels and offices are busy again?
I don’t think conversions should be prohibited but those investments are based on a timeline of many years and I certainly hope we will be getting occupancy back up. Office and hotel uses are essential to our economy and our tax base.
Also a lot of office buildings don’t even work well as residential conversions because the footprints are too large. Yes, you can convert a hotel, but that doesn’t mean you should.

“Butch Bowers and Deborah Barbier” sounds like a pair of will-they-or-won’t-they characters leading a procedural show.
Ideally played by David Boreanaz and Mariska Hargitay.

I am genuinely unsure how the efforts to make MTG the face of the GOP (sure to be heartily assisted by MTG) will play in the midterms.
Without getting into the relative *merits*, this is something the parties do a lot in campaigns — highlighting the most extreme and unappealing personalities on the other side — and I generally think it has less effect than you’d expect.
Like we heard this whole narrative about how AOC and messaging about defunding the police/bail reform was a huge problem in suburban New York. But then Biden significantly improved on Hillary’s margin and Dems gained seats in the state senate.

Are flowers cheaper because of the pandemic? Whole Foods is selling pretty nice bouquets for $5-10.
Also, 10 tulips for $6.30, or 24 roses for $19.99
People keep saying “no demand for weddings” and I’m sure that’s a key part of it but lots of flowers sort of go in the background in commercial settings — restaurants, offices, hotels — and I bet that’s way down too. Also fewer occasions for people to gift flowers.
