The absolute best thing ever on this site is seeing it recommend my ex-girlfriend's alt account that she started after we broke up.

Well, if public drunkenness in your 20s makes you a dirtbag, I'll own it. Also, Schindler looks a lot like my German pal Gero from that era.

In fact, you don't have to be a good or even halfway decent person to save people's lives. Oskar Schindler was a total dirtbag! In his youth, he was expelled from technical school for forgery. Throughout his twenties, he was arrested multiple times for public drunkenness.

Joe Biden refers to Donald Trump as a “sick f—” behind closed doors to his longtime friends and close aides, Politico reported Thursday, citing three people who claim to have personally heard the insult. trib.al/z5PDbhQ

Biden Called Trump a ‘Sick F**k’ Behind Closed Doors: Report

The president appeared to nearly refer his predecessor by the same insult in a speech last month.

I have never been a supporter of Donald Trump, but if Democrats cannot stop him from sabotaging a bipartisan border security bill, I will have no choice but to vote for him a third time.

If you teach in a college or university (or probably at any level) I urge you to give an assignment (extra credit is great) that asks students to locate a print book on a shelf in a library & to check it out. Most have never done this in their lives and they learn a lot from it.
