Growing up in suburbs, we were forced to believe the ability to drive was our biggest freedom in life. I’m glad I later realized that the truest freedom is $0 in car payments, $0 in car insurance, $0 in gas, $0 in parking and the wind through my helmet holes.

I can’t believe this site is free. @elonmusk not saying I would pay for it, just saying I appreciate it as is.
We are entertaining at the weekend. One of the guests is a woman we do not know (new girlfriend of a friend). She has emailed us a list of acceptable meals together with food she, "...would be upset to see served" Is this a thing now?

When he was 14 years old, Rob Kenney's father abandoned him. After he became an adult, he launched a YouTube channel called "Dad, How Do I?" that teaches kids to do things that a dad would normally teach them. He has more than 18 million views.

Clinton brought deficit to $0. GW Bush ran it up, pushing debt up trillions through tax cuts & spending. Required raising debt limit in early Obama but GOP pushed toward economic collapse, lying that the debt was Obama's. Then Obama cut deficit by 50%. Trump pushed deficit up../1

The number of men running a "well if I didn't show up to my job" argument about Simone Biles is just embarrassing. If you were as good at your job as Simone Biles is at gymnastics, people wouldn't be at all fazed by your taking a day when you need to either. But you're not.
