Yes, but also: Everything the government does costs money because someone has to make sure it's being done. This stupid SAVE thing would have cost money to enforce and, therefore, it could be argued that it is related to the budget. That's not a a very good argument, but it's enough to slow down the process while they argue over it.

You could try turning on Do Not Disturb for all numbers, all the time. The calls and texts will technically still happen but you won't be notified of them. You may be able to avoid voicemails if you never set it up. You'll see all your texts if you ever open the app although you may be able to disable or remove it. (YMMV based on your particular phone.)

Have a snack ready when they get home from school. Make it reasonably healthy but it should be something they like. Keeping their blood sugar up at the end of the day makes evenings so much more pleasant.

Given the lack of punctuation at the end of the sentence compared to proper punctuation on the other lines, I would expect that one of these is true:

  1. The end of the punchline was never printed.
  2. The end of the punchline appears elsewhere and cannot be seen because of how it is being held.
  3. The image has been edited for comedic effect (successfully, in my opinion).

I searched for the quote to find it because I, too, was curious. This is from I Saw the TV Glow, a 2024 film.

Are you saying that two of the most powerful financial institutions in the world would bribe the politician who does what the billionires want and has explicitly requested bribes in the past? Surely you're not serious.

i will cover myself in dirt to show how I am in touch with nature and my true self. No dirt on my face, though.

According to Snopes and PolitiFact, you were looking at a fabricated list of Trump's victims and settlements to make legal issues go away. I have very little doubt victims exist but this list of names and dollars is not based on fact.

Serious answer? Just wait 4 years. Rename it to Project 2029 or 2033 or 2037, as often as needed. That's the really exhausting part. Now that they have this plan, we have to defeat it every time. The figurehead is not as important as the plan. They'll be another candidate willing to become a dictator, I'm sure.
