I was watching The Carol Burnett show last night and caught this gem about how not to offend anyone with a comedy sketch... 😂

My dad and I have been working on making cutting boards. It's just a little side job we’re hoping brings in a few bucks here and there. So, I'm asking if anyone would pay $100 for one of these? It's made of maple, oak, and walnut. Breadboards are 100% walnut but sell for less.

So, one of my passions is writing. Fiction. I've had a book idea swimming in my head and another I finished but need to edit.

I thought the best way to get the creative juices flowing was to write a few short stories.

I've put a few of them up on a WordPress blog and I thought I'd share.

I'll update it every time I write a new one. Which I'm trying to do daily via a sentence generator.

And hopefully that'll get me into writing a bigger story again!

First off, I typed this up before I just wrote it. I didn't want to miss anything, so it'll get it tooted out pretty quickly. Anyway:

Many were sharing their stories about drugs, etc. I only mentioned my brother was an addict and the drugs took his life. I thought I’d share the whole story.

First off, this December will be 16 years since my brother died. He was 27.

(Update: It will now be 17 years this December.)

So, I've been doing martial arts since I was 8. I started in Tae Kwon Do, but made it all the way to Brown Sr., one step away from black belt. But the school didn't do me any favors. They never told me in order to test for black, I had to know all the previous belt levels. I became fustrated and left. I was probably 12/13 years old.

We moved to another part of Maryland and I started up with another school. Again, I got one step before black belt when my social anxiety hit.

AI girlfriends are ruining an entire generation of men
12ft.io/proxy?ref=&q=https://w

Yep....dopey Beta-boys are now pursuing artificial girlfriends and according to this study, it's creating a generation a lonely, screwed up boys..

But take things a step further - WHY are boys looking to AI for girlfriends? Perhaps because the current generation of WOKE girls & women are pushing guys away in the name of neo-feminism and unrealistic expectations.

How many times has @Debradelai told us this? I have lost count. So, this shouldn’t be “news” to anyone.

Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) aiding border crossers and illegal aliens are raking in millions in American taxpayer cash from President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS), an accounting of public records shows.

@ZachFisch: "Feinstein was the tie-breaking vote on the Judiciary Committee, which approves judicial nominees. The GOP will likely refuse to seat her replacement on the committee.

Pres. Biden’s ability to confirm federal judges will be severely curtailed. An RBG-level disaster."

A Fulton County District Attorney's Office investigator "accidentally" shot herself while at the county courthouse on Friday, according to a press release from the sheriff's office.

"She was not critically wounded. A Fulton County Sheriff's Office deputy responded and administered aid until EMS arrived," the statement says. "There was never an active threat at the courthouse."

They could have gone the obvious next step and shown her in the 10th-century equivalent of a wheelchair.

Or perhaps they did go the next step and that's what the horse is for.

Those who label words as violence do so with the sole purpose of justifying violence against words.
