The Face of The Republican Party Mitch McConnell sucks. He sucks to look at, he sucks to listen to. But he is the boss man Majority Leader (for at least another 320 days) of a Senate that is actively trying to kill us all, so when he says words we have to
I wish some democratic operative would use the "$1300 might pay for a trip to Costco in Washington" in a campaign commercial to show how out of touch he and most of the repubs are.

I agree - but your 'average' income must be a lot higher than mine. According to that calculator, I seem to be looking at an extra $20-$40, not $150.
Also in my food pantry experience, items past their use-by date might get put out on a 'take your chances' table; I don't believe I've gotten them distributed to me. And dirty rice mix would still be good for a long while, if the seasoning package might get a little chunky.

As the closest thing to a RWNJ in my family, the only arguments I'm going to have will revolve around me criticizing my brother's skating pond for not being smooth enough and his Fox Sports level hot-takes on baseball. (He posted on Facebook 2 weeks ago that the Giancarlo Stanton trade was the only really good thing he ever did for the Yankees. I've taken to calling him Skip Bayless and Jayson Whitlock after that shit.)
dammit! I looked up Fakakta on the googlies and thought that maybe it was safe to look up bukaka (thinking it also sounded Yiddish) but I was WRONG!
[try NOT to imagine him with sex face]
Happy Festivus evrybody!

Not holding my breath, however.
Lately, it depends on the time of day for me. At the moment, I'd smile and offer him thoughts and prayers.
What part of thoughts and prayers do you not understand?
No.
