@Anela - I feel so seen!!!

Mostly it's because of all the people loudly saying "OMG!!!" all the time.

Don't let the door hit you.... Trump national security adviser Waltz is out following Signal chat blunder in major staff shakeup Why not Hegseth?

@shapeshifter - your poem reminds me of one of my favourite limericks:

I think the ep is tonight. Which is kinda funny because when I checked last week and didn't see an ep thread then I had a similar thought to you.

Javadi told someone (Dana, maybe?) that when her parents took her on a ski trip to Utah she was all breathless and discombobulated and whatnot due to altitude sickness. Mateo is the human embodiment of that. Hence 'human Utah'.

He wasn't elected, he was appointed & confirmed. But your overall point still stands. Seems 'highly insecure & totally unqualified' is the requirement for this admin's cabinet and appointees. The one who actually is highly insecure & totally unqualified before he got elected is POTUS.

If Aldis Alexander Basil Hodge doesn't show up for an episode with a watch at its core....

Same song, more spoken word version.

. So much of the good economy (such as it was) in the 50s was down to Government programmes. There was still signifcant carry over from FDR's WPA largesse and also the GI Bill. Those programmes were chipped at and chipped at and chipped at by Nixon, Reagan, Bush.

You know we were all thinking it!

You assume he has one.

They more than 'gave' the horse drugs, they force-fed her (him?) baggies of the stuff! All the hokey chimes and gong stuff aside, Margaret Cho's type of talk therapy ('where is your pain?') sounded to me to be very near Focusing. Among other aspects, it's a way to let your body tell you what's going on in your mind (referred to as The Felt Sense). My example is the stress of long drives manifesting as a knot of stress/pain near my right shoulder. Also, yes, will you should hug your pain. I think that was what he asked Cho. Essentially, don't try to force your emotions away. It never works and often causes more harm than help.

I think Canada follows along with what the designations are in the UK. CNN: How Britain’s political parties got their colors (can you spot the misspelling?) CNN: Republicans are red and Democrats blue. But it wasn’t always that way (looks like the change happened in the early 80s.)

Faithless. God is a DJ. My go-to when I need a lift. The beautiful Maxwell Alexander Fraser (aka Maxi Jazz), taken way too soon.
