@BlueNGold92 @CallMeK1123 I handle most of the grocery shopping in our household. I've been an active couponer since the days when you actually had to cut them out of flyers, and if I don't save 30% or more on a trip, I consider it unsuccessful.

@MotherJones @morgfair The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) could easily be enforced by the DOJ, which already has an entire division dedicated to other disability legislation like the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

@RyanM_78 @Samantha_SN1 @landofthe80s I enjoyed watching KNIGHT RIDER, but what made KITT cool (at least for me) was the wonderful voice (and bone dry humor) of actor William Daniels.

@AlexpiersonAMP Tribalism is tough to overcome. The Democrats in the US had to work very hard over the past decade or so to drive down their voter approval to its lowest level ever.

@Samantha_SN1 @landofthe80s Oh yes please! That's not just any old Ferrari - it's an '84 Testarossa, which sports a 4.9L flat-12 that will go 0 to 60 in 4.7 seconds. Wheee!

@Dale_Chu @mikesully97 @ChadAldeman @MissDeptEd @tatereeves That decline for the US as a whole lines up with widespread adoption of Lucy Calkins' "balanced literacy" project, which abandoned tried-and-true phonics for a "whole language" approach. I suspect that MS opted to ignore that destructive fad & stuck with phonics instead.

@ginacarano If you haven't already seen it, I strongly recommend the Christopher Reeve doc SUPER/MAN. He and his wife Dana were both quite remarkable people.

@RonColeman @seanrcallaghan @likely2confuse Best of luck to the NFL with that attempt to trademark "The Big Game". My brother is a Stanford grad & both his alma mater and Cal have numerous very well connected alumni who will fight this.

@seanrcallaghan @RonColeman @likely2confuse Yep. The NFL jealously guards that "Super Bowl" trademark and has lawyers on speed dial to enforce it.

The basketball gods do not approve of mortals thinking that they are oh so clever and can game the system. Look how they treated the Sixers and that so-called Process. "Oh, you think you can tank repeatedly and build that way? Your All Pro center will never be completely healthy and you will draft a consensus all-world talent who actually has no heart for the game. Have fun!"

@LizMair @emzanotti Orrr... perhaps the USDS (aka DOGE) could develop and deploy an AI-based system to handle that. Filtering massive datasets for items of interest is something that AI is very good at.

@iowahawkblog Poor Hailey has likely endured more than enough off-color jokes about her last name. I will not, err, pile on.

@Witchylaroche @BrentScher @MZHemingway It should and given that the stated mission of the USDS (aka DOGE) is modernizing Federal data systems, I suspect that quite soon it will.
