Had this happen enough to flinch when I read that.
Wife has worked for in K-6 for about 12 years. I try to go to a school in the district once a year and just pay off some kid's (or family's) lunch debt.
'Cause man... Growing up is hard enough these days
We had "ham salad" from the local grocery store... Discovered later that it was ground bologna and mayo/relish.
Mine were from older kids in our church... Can still remember the shame of wearing my nicest outfit for Easter Sunday only to remember who'd worn it the previous year
Interesting day in my area... A local protest was 'hosted' by Rick Steves (the PBS travel guy), whose office is in the nearby town. He's in purple shirt with the megaphone here.
He talked about being in Istanbul this past week and how the Turkish government had shifted to a dictatorship from a democracy... And described the ways the US was following the same path.
He also joked about this protest being a pledge drive for PBS... Which was hilarious, and was part of his description around governments taking over legacy media.
I've thought for a while that citizens should have surrounded and blocked entry to the offices DOGE was targeting, led by Democratic congress persons. But instead, we got politicians showing up to ask questions, being told to leave by rent a cops, and leaving.
This right here. Have Obama gear up for some sort of President / Vice President campaign, and MAGA will ensure the Court closes every single loophole* Trump might use just to keep "that boy" (as my uncle called him) off the ballot.
*does not apply to the "I'm going to create a national emergency and eliminate the election for "the good of the country" option
Nah... Just show the daughter how to load the dishwasher and your wife will likely complain about it (and you) and make sure your daughter does it the 'right' way (whatever that means to her)
