Throsby discovered that artists are not "interested in money" as much as in "other values 'unbekownst' to most economists" in the same way that Columbus discovered a new continent.

The Orange dictator in the US has now accepted a plane from one of the worlds largest funders of terrorism.

Full on bribery and in plain view!

If his royal orangeness wants to have the best plane, is a hand me down used plane from the Emir the best way to go? The Emir by the way will still most likely have a better one! 😉

Why can't what is supposed to be one of the richest countries in the world afford a plane for the president??

What a great name for a bedtime story

"Lil' Donny no dolls gets a gift"

*What does the gift giver get in return? And why do they want a gift from human rights abuser and funder of terrorism?

I wonder what Florida will look like after a few hurricanes and no FEMA help? It's about to get really costly for hurricane prone areas. I hope they have healthy reserve funding to clean up the mess and save lives.

Somehow I think this is gonna hurt the budget of more than a few sates. Hope you got cash!

I have tried all morning to find a comparison for how unintelligent the orange menace is, but I really don't want to insult any of them in the comparison.

So... the shift to DTV is totally happening... again. For the nth time. Do they mean it... or is it just waiting for the next election drama? 🤔📺✨

Yesterday after school my 11yo said "Are you busy tonight?"

I said, "Today was busy so I kinda wanted to binge Starfield tonight."

"Aw, okay," she said.

Me: "But we can play Stardew Valley tomorrow, okay?"

Her: "Actually I wanted to do another chapter in that math book with you."

Me: *record scratch sound*

Me: "How's after dinner for you?"
