No one paying even a smidgen of attention is “sleeping” on the benefits of acquiring Greenland, intangible or otherwise. There remains the method of acquisition to be addressed, however. These things must be done delicately…
People are sleeping on the intangible benefits of acquiring Greenland, I think. It will be interesting, innovative, feel like America has global swagger again. Will energize the citizenry.

Medieval - High Middle ages classics, maybe...But classical antiquity? Not so much.
One thing that's striking when reading the classics is that the ancients' ideal of masculinity often included traits like eloquence, respect, hospitality, temperance, kindness—even emotional vulnerability. Would that the contemporary manosphere returned to that ideal!

For those falling all over themselves to give credit to Trump and his campaign of extrajudicial killings of Venezuelan coke mules, Naloxone nasal spray (Narcan) became available over-the-counter (OTC) without a prescription in March 2023.

So, pro choice until a self determined line representing an arbitrary number of abortions beyond which you are uncomfortable is passed? How many dead children is ok with you Steve, 10,000? 20,000? 100,000? Where's YOUR line and why is yours right and someone else's wrong?
I'm pro choice, but this is a 3rd of all pregnancies. Where's the line? Because it feels like we passed it.

The general whiteness, and distinct lack of short people and/or morbidly obese people tells me this is not America, but rather (probably) some Scandinavian liberal enclave.

Disrespect for, or denunciation of Robert E. Lee was verboten in the United States of America prior to 1971...And ought to still be today. There is no justification to call him a flawless or unimpeachable man, but neither is there justification to deny that he was a "Great" man.

A tool powerful enough to save America is powerful enough to destroy America. Democrats will be in power again (sooner than you think). What do you think they will do with this superpower you want to give to Trump and the assorted corrupt idiots of the GOP?

🚨🚨Scam Alert!🚨🚨 Scammers are contacting people claiming Verizon is offering an $80 statement credit as compensation for your inconvenience. They ask for your billing information to "credit" your credit card. Then they steal your info and buy gift cards. 🚨🚨Scam Alert!🚨🚨
I'm sure many have a story about the Verizon outage yesterday. I couldn't call my SIL to let him know I was ready to be picked up at the airport. No problem. I'll call Uber... oh, wait. In the old days at least we had pay phones. Made we realize how vulnerable we are. I'm

...Still, the plot continues to thicken.
Trump shoots off his impulsive mouth before thinking. He had no plan of what to do if the Mullahs called his bluff. He misjudged the desperation of a regime with nothing to lose. Iranian patriots died by the thousands looking to the skies for help Trump promised was on the way.

I have a love hate relationship with great writers. I love them because I love beauty in prose. I hate them because they display a level of literary genius that, as good as I am and as hard as I try, I can't achieve...Yet they got it, not as a birthright, but an outright gift.

On of the most destructive things boomers did (there are many) was normalize and proliferate profanity. Ubiquitous course language has been both a sign of and a cause of the coarsening and debauching of our culture. Someday we will realize that indiscriminate swearing demeans us

You're pretty sure it's true you aren't pretty enough to play Sharon Tate, or you're pretty sure that's why you didn't get the role?...It's a distinction with a difference.
Jennifer Lawrence says online backlash cost her a role in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: “Tarantino did want me for the role & then everyone was like, ‘She’s not pretty enough to play Sharon Tate.’ And then he [didn’t cast me]. I’m pretty sure it is true.” https://t.co/cHqoFqCby3
