Just wondering

Wednesday, August 31, 2022

Anyone who is reading this is probably already aware of the blockbuster brief that the Justice Department just filed in the case against the genius.

Sunday, August 7, 2022

In a way, this is a sign that the Republicans are running out of people to openly hate, which I suppose tells us something somewhat good about […]
