    My daughter keeps banging her feet on a cabinet absentmindedly. It does drive me a little bonkers, but at least is rhythmic?

    I just don't understand ASMR.

    Like... why? And how do you have pride in making a living off sitting in front of the camera and recording all the sounds of you silently eating food?

    What on earth...

    Almost only counts for horseshoes, hand grenades, and the electoral college.

    TRump claims he actually won the popular vote. And we should believe him.

    We will all be receiving a pointless announcement (text message) that will appear with a header as a "Presidential Alert" next week.

    IPAWS National Test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) - Thursday, September 20, 2018

    I am all for a system like this as long as it is not a message from Trump saying how he is the best president ever in responding to natural disasters.

    And, there should be an op-out provision, but apparently there is not

    So many people can't *afford* to evacuate. It sucks. Who's goi g to pay for the exorbitant hotel prices, the extra meals, the jacked up gas prices? Sometimes you choose to try to ride it out because you don't have a choice.

    I agree, look what happened during Katrina. However, the people I saw on the news were just macho jackasses. Also, shelters were opened up and the military was evacuating people to those shelters.

    Oh, and I'd like to get my hands on the F**kwit who left his dogs in their kennel. Lock his ass up in there while the water's rising. Asshole!

    I just go tickets for the pre-Broadway premier of "Beetlejuice: The Musical. The Musical. The Musical." at the National Theater next month.



    I dont know what to expect other than it will be "ruder, raunchier and frankly, more repellent than ever in this original musical based on Tim Burton’s wonderfully demented film. "

    It was postponed.

    The National EAS and WEA test has been postponed to the backup date of October 3, 2018, beginning at 2:18 p.m. EDT.

    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), will conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) on the backup date of October 3, 2018 due to ongoing response efforts to Hurricane Florence. The WEA portion of the test commences at 2:18 p.m. EDT, and the EAS portion follows at 2:20 p.m. EDT. The test will assess the operational readiness of the infrastructure for distribution of a national message and determine whether improvements are needed...
