I LOVE the idea of self-driving automobiles. But really self-driving, not the kind with someone in the driver seat. The boon of independence for the blind and elderly would be immeasurable.

Cheers, Ann.

I guess we'll just disagree on this one.

The boon of not having to deal with geniuses texting on their iPhones making right turns from the far left lane would be more than enough.

FTFY

If we’re blaming Putin for Biden’s inflation, then while we’re at it why not blame Putin for a bunch of Biden’s other failings as well? Clearly Putin is responsible for the following 

- Mail in ballots

- Ballot drop boxes

- The stolen 2020 election

- The open southern border

- Relocation of illegal aliens into America’s heartland

- The opioid crisis

- The Democrats’ massive increase in government spending/new social programs

- The Democrats’ massive increase in government debt

- Big tech censorship

- The disastrous pullout from Afghanistan

- Biden’s decision to leave $80 billion in weapons behind for the Taliban

- Biden’s decision to send only about $1 billion in military aid to the Ukraine prior to the invasion

- Biden’s refusal to provide the Ukraine with military aircraft or other aid they are now requesting

- Biden’s decision to shut down a large portion of American oil production

- The abandonment of due process for both anti-Trump impeachments

- The abandonment of due process for the January 6th demonstrators

- Unrestricted and warrantless U.S. government surveillance directed against American citizens

- The fact Biden’s campaign began with an outright lie (very fine people hoax)

- Biden’s clear contempt for the Constitution (doing things he knew to be illegal, with the attitude of let the courts sort it out later)

- Biden’s disastrous choice of Vice President, attorney general, and many other terrible appointments

 

Surely Putin is responsible for all that and more? The Democrats cannot possibly bear any of the blame.

I thought Trump was their defacto proxy for blaming Putin for everything under the sun(?).

So this probably isn't a good time to complain about  the DH in all of MLB.
