Dot’s Country Diner had been open for fifty-two years.
Today was the final day. Dot was seventy-nine and her knees were failing.
At 2:00 PM, the closing hour, sixty people packed into the twenty-seat room.
Mechanics, nurses, high school coaches, police officers, and me.
Nobody ordered food. Everyone had brought a single handwritten card or a flower.
Dot came out of the kitchen untying her apron.
She saw the crowd. She saw the counter covered in four hundred envelopes.
Dot put her hands over her face and wept.
A plumber named Joe, whose grandfather had eaten breakfast at the same counter in 1974, raised a mug of lukewarm black coffee.
"To Dot. Who fed this town through three recessions, four blizzards, and every broken heart we ever brought through that door."
"TO DOT!" sixty voices roared as one.
I bowed to Dot, lower than I have ever bowed to any high lord.
A castle is not made of stone walls and moats.
A castle is an eighty-year-old woman who knows how you take your eggs when your world is falling apart.
My tweet was about PAYING NATO obligations.
Canada has never paid the required percentage - ever.
When it was recently raised to 5% they were still below the previous 2% requirement.
This is what Grenell knows.
Attention, cult members: no matter what the OP says, I'm pretty sure you should be giving me money, not the other way round. Now go hence and force social detransition. The cultist who racks up the most desisters this week will go to heaven and/or get a slightly fancier kaftan.
Parents are BLASTING New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani for REFUSING to take action after a group of VAGRANTS was seen TERRORIZING young girls at a soccer practice in a NYC park.
The individuals wore frightening masks, flipped off bystanders, and stripped off their clothes less than 20 feet away from those children.
Father of Soccer Player: “These men need help, but obviously they're not getting it and because of that everyone else has to suffer. Mamdani is terrible, absolutely terrible.”
FAFO 🚨
Trump told the leftist center for American progress, if it doesn't retract,apologize & compensate him for issuing a report they posted that found no evidence that the National Guard reduced violent crime
He gave them until 5PM Friday, or he's gonna sue them for ($5B)
Trump ain't playing... don't believe me, go as ABC News or Paramount how his lawsuits against them turned out
Rosie O’Donnell just went on national television and implied President Trump is a pedophile — then smugly added that the reason he hasn’t sued people who call him that is because it must be true.
That’s not comedy. That’s a calculated, defamatory smear.
Trump has every right to sue her for defamation, and he should. Letting this kind of garbage slide only encourages more of it. If you’re going to make that kind of accusation on air, you should have to answer for it in court.
The double standard is outrageous. The left screams about “dangerous rhetoric” while their own people casually drop the most serious accusation possible with a wink and a “I wonder why.”
Sue her.
A complete step by step guide to eating out without seed oils, refined over six years and now essentially foolproof.
1. Open the app that lists seed oil free restaurants near you. Note that the nearest one is in Guildford.
2. You are not in Guildford.
3. Choose somewhere with a steak on the menu and go in with an open mind and a plan.
4. Ask the waiter what they cook the steak in.
5. He says butter.
6. Ask again, warmly, because you are not one of those people.
7. He says butter, and smiles.
8. Watch him walk away. Something in the shoulders. A man who cooks in butter does not walk like that.
9. Consider that he may not know. A waiter is a messenger. The kitchen is the state.
10. Note that the menu says pan fried. Fried in what. Pan is not a substance.
11. Weigh up going through the double doors yourself and putting it to the brigade directly. Line them up along the pass. Start with the commis, because the young ones crack.
12. Get as far as standing up.
13. Sit back down. There is no legal right of entry to a kitchen and you have looked into it before.
14. Order the steak. Plain, no sauce, no butter added at the table, because added at the table implies a baseline you have not established.
15. It arrives glistening. Everything glistens. This is the flaw in the whole discipline.
16. Sniff it. You have read that you can tell. You cannot tell. Nobody has ever been able to tell.
17. Eat it anyway, because it is nine o'clock and you have been at this for forty minutes.
18. Enjoy roughly eleven seconds of it.
19. Notice the chips your wife ordered. Ask what those were done in.
20. She says, and I am quoting her directly, please can we just have one dinner.
21. Explain that adipose tissue turns over on a timescale of about two years, so tonight is not a night, it is a deposit.
22. She orders a pudding out of spite.
23. Pay the bill. Tip well. He was probably telling the truth.
24. In the car park, file the meal as compromised and resolve to eat at home for the next eighteen months.
25. Eat at home for four days.
New Zealand whistleblower Barry Young: "They RAIDED my home & ARRESTED me for exposing deadly COVID vaccine batches."
Catastrophic death rate PFIZER batches:
🔴 Batch 1: 152 deaths out of 711 vaccinated → 21.4% dead
🔴 Batch 2: 38 deaths out of 221 → 17.2% dead
🔴 Batch 3: 48 deaths out of 310 → 15.5% dead
Normal background death rate in that period? Only 0.75%.
The statistical odds of this happening by chance? Roughly 1 in 100 BILLION.
His direct conclusion: “Statistically, there is no way this vaccine ISN'T killing people.”
Yet instead of launching an investigation… authorities raided his home and arrested him.
BREAKING: The two thugs who attacked a dad in the jacuzzi just for fun have been arrested after their parents turned them in
Greg Medina spends his days feeding the homeless and was violently attacked and had his phone stolen while relaxing after a long day of work.
The teens attacked him for tiktok content.
Everytime I think people cannot possibly become more deluded, detached from reality, and downright demonic, I'm proven wrong.
THREE. KIDS. ARE. DEAD. How have they been so lost in this discussion?
