Yes 90% of everything is crap but in the case of modern country music it's more like 99%. Country music stars have no problem filming videos in places where people were lynched and writing anti-BLM songs like "Try That in a Small Town" and singing at Trump events and excluding Black artists.

With everything going on. I really hope folks put their ballots in dropboxes or vote in person.
USPS (as much as I like our mail carrier) is not to be trusted right now. And that's only gonna get worse leading up to election day.

Just in case it wasn’t clear, when they say the U.S. Government’s paying for this, that’s YOUR taxpayer dollars they’re using.
I’ll say this as many times as I need to: it is ILLEGAL to use American taxpayer dollars from the government to pay for candidates’ or parties’ political ads.

Several years ago at a Christmas Eve Eve party where it’s white elephant in the extreme I ‘won’ an air compressor.
Today bought a hose and adapter and next week I’ll blow out my sprinklers because my old vendor retired and the guys last year were stupid overpriced.

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

UPDATE: The mystery LLC connected to Victor Marx's campaign for Colorado Gov is back in newly-filed campaign finance documents. The Marx campaign paid nearly $3k to Not Shook, LLC for "Advertising." Marx's campaign once listed Marx as the LLC owner but he says that was a mistake.
NEW: In a new audio recording, GOP Gov nominee Victor Marx suggests that his campaign filed someone else's large contribution under Marx's name to avoid campaign finance limits.

The joy of discovering one of your UPS batteries is bunk... after the planned power outage has begun. Guess I need to get better at battery hygene. Replacement battery ordered... for next time. Thankfully it was only the NAS and media center. Internet modem is on the other UPS

It's so 'funny' to me that businesses expect incentives to do the objectively right thing, but citizens are just expected to do it or faces fines/penalties.
