@David_Crayford @NBCNews This is just the American vernacular. Uncertain why we prefer to add an article, we just do. My theory is that in many small towns there was only one hospital even if you were lucky. Since most lived in small towns before moving to cities and suburbs in the 20th century it stuck

@ABC Here I thought Fallout was just supposed to be a video game. Not a future history.

@ABC Somebody just bought themselves an Army. The ghost of JP Morgan is laughing his ass off.

@NBCNews These are probably the ones who are in high demand in the private sector and we're working for dimes on the dollar because they believed in serving their country. It is doubtful that these ones will be coming back. Nuclear Physicists and Environmental Engineers don't come cheap.

@LadyJayPersists Just your daily reminder that maglev trains are a 50 year old practical application of technology and we have 0 of them in the US because we no longer invest in our infrastructure.

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

@LadyJayPersists Historically speaking being a brilliant person was not an evolutionary advantage. It tended to get you proclaimed an enemy of the crown or burned at the stake.

Today, my Administration is canceling student debt for 277,000 more people – bringing the total number of Americans who have been approved for debt relief so far under my Administration to 4.3 million through various actions.

I will never stop working to cancel student debt.

A shocker in Seattle: Pete Carroll is expected to be out as the Seahawks head coach, per sources. He still could remain in the organization, but not as the head coach.

@SeattleONTap We will regret it for quite some time.

FINAL: The @Seahawks finish the year at 9-8. #SEAvsAZ

@AshleyAlready The sad truth is that whether your friend is a man or a woman, they may have ulterior motives that do not align with our interests. Trusting them is always a leap of faith. It hurts to lose this friend, I know. I had a similar situation with a female friend when I met someone.

@Ash_The_Author You need to write it. You don't stop yourself from taking a shit just because you know it will stink. It will do more damage if you hold it in. Trust me.

@HWickersWriter A little bit of crying against the wall and a little bit of punching the shower wall.

@Michell33650674 Propose to them a nesting agreement if they cannot cohabitate peacefully during their seperation. Don't put yourself out of your own house. That is an example of setting yourself on fire to keep someone else warm.

@JoJoFromJerz I wonder if she realizes that this signal is an admission of imminany defeat, not a show of defiance.

@Michell33650674 Geez. I feel old. Back when everybody still had dial up internet I signed up for an online payment service called "https://t.co/nRUwuVZQSg." I got my first credit card that way. Many years later it got renamed to Paypal and made Elon Musk very rich. What's old is new again.
