'People Will Not Forget': Fury as Schumer Caves to Trump-Musk Destruction

Jump

  • I'm a middle school teacher and my partner builds houses. What country in Europe will take us? It's a nice thought, but no one will accept us.

    • What does a week of groceries look like to you?

    Jump

  • I or another person go once a week. I wish I went every few days, but I love about 20 min away and it's not my favorite place in the world. For some reason I always make a list even though I buy basically the same things. My partner never uses a list when he goes.

    Red peppers, tomatillos, fibrous cereal, milk and soy milk, yogurt/cottage cheese, tortilla chips, a bag of grapefruit when in season, wasa crackers, hummus, eggs / bread / tortillas when low, and whatever I'm making for lunch for the week. Sometimes salad stuff.

    • Did anyone else learn that "a group of cats is called a Whisper?"

    Jump

  • I remember reading through the list and thinking "wtf is a 'clowder,' hopefully they don't mean 'chowder*'"? That's at least 20 years ago. I've never heard "whisper."

    *I have some familiarly with Boston, the land of "chowda," which is not know to contain cats.

    • How come in most school in the USA (at least mine) they teach Spain Spanish instead of Mexico Spanish? Would not Mexico Spanish be an obvious choice to teach?

    Jump

  • I had a teacher from Spain for three years, then for the next four years they were from various countries: Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, and the US. It was great to get used to each accent.

    • Months after Hurricane Helene, many grow frustrated as they still wait for federal aid

    Jump

  • Yes, but I didn't...

    • Where do you get your news from?

    Jump

  • Gosh, do they still do RSS feeds? I so miss that era of the internet.

    • Where do you get your news from?

    Jump

  • It's definitely intended for US audiences. They do long-running features on topics like the war in Gaza, and they touch on important global events like contested elections, but its perspective is rooted in progressive US politics.

    • Acorns!

    Jump

  • Those vile frogs where the babies hatch out of the back of the mother. Do I have this phobia, or is that also the most unnerving thing YOU've ever seen?

    • SpaceX’s Starship explodes in second failure for Musk’s Mars program

    Jump

  • No, because he wants SpaceX to succeed!

    • What is the minimum number of words needed to communicate

    Jump

  • My favorite is "Do you speak (language)... Please??"

    Edit: I'm misinterpreting on purpose. It was a good list.

    • Second death reported in growing measles outbreak

    Jump

  • Just curious, RFK was almost certainly vaccinated against MMR, right?

    • Second death reported in growing measles outbreak

    Jump

  • It's the extra dot after the ellipse. Artfully communicated.

    • Elon Musk suddenly doesn’t want credit for disastrous DOGE cuts

    Jump

  • Sing! Swing! Savor the sting!

    • Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • Golden Arches works, but now we can use Golden Dome too.

    • Does it make sense to buy a lifetime supply of honey?

    Jump

  • I'll add that if you have all that honey, you might also eat more of it than you'd initially planned and run out sooner. Personally, I would start putting spoonfuls in my tea, using honey instead of jam, maybe experimenting with baking...

    • 'The Daily Show' accepts Musk's terms for interview with Stewart: 'We'd be delighted'

    Jump

  • How the heck did I miss this entire series? I've been pining for Jon since 2015, was overjoyed that he'd taken over Monday's again, and had no idea that he'd been doing a program already. Oy.

    • YSK: Use ‘a’ when the word starts with a consonant sound, and ‘an’ when it starts with a vowel sound

    Jump

  • Uhhh I actually might need an example? Just one, though?

    • YSK: Use ‘a’ when the word starts with a consonant sound, and ‘an’ when it starts with a vowel sound

    Jump

  • I missed it. Appreciate you.

    • YSK: Use ‘a’ when the word starts with a consonant sound, and ‘an’ when it starts with a vowel sound

    Jump

  • I so want to downvote, but will refrain. However the gross feeling remains.

  • I just learned the bit about an ekename from A Way With Words! Great radio program/podcast.
