He's a reputable historian. His wheelhouse is the history of the Arabs. https://share.google/nr9msyvfYCsLpukdD I see he probably did get this wrong. A cartoonist invented red Santa in 1863 for Harper's Weekly and Coca-Cola used red Santa in 1938. - From the comments. I suppose both stories could be true. I think I'll Google an image of the 1863 Santa. But why a red Santa at that time? I like him wearing green. It's my favorite color. Edit- "In 1863, Santa Claus did not wear his signature red suit in Harper's Weekly, as the magazine was printed entirely in black-and-white wood engravings. While cartoonist Thomas Nast famously introduced the prototype of our modern Santa Claus on the January 3, 1863 cover of Harper's Weekly, the actual text accompanying the illustration reveals that Santa was dressed in a patriotic Union uniform of a star-covered jacket and striped trousers rather than a solid color.Nast did not popularize the iconic bright red outfit until 1881, when his famous colorized illustration titled "Merry Old Santa Claus" was published. Thank you, AI Edit 2- He was wrong. He should stick to his area of expertise. A Pictorial History of Santa Claus — The Public Domain Review https://share.google/2kiuUQ8ouUy0lSY5v

That's disgusting and I'm not watching the video because after that it would be in my memory. Are humans the smartest animal or the dumbest?

So, the Republican Senators and the Acting Attorney General got into a shouting match and the Senate was shut down. Soon after, the House was shut down.

He can be sane the live long day or not but he's got dementia either way. Also, I wouldn't focus on his agency myself not that I have insight into it. I'd focus on how he's being used by others.

Reduce, reuse, recycle! This would be great. I hope it works.

It’s the smoke for us here in the city. At least that’s how it has been so far.

I really don't care. There are more important things requiring attention. I watch soccer. It will survive.

They should serve the wild boar to Putin.

It’s that or slow death.

I might take jon's recommendation as well, and thank you so much wtg and Andy.

We can't have people not be divided or the people might start thinking about things that matter.

Either that or Alexa speaks cat. Reason enough to never have a device that spends my money because it thinks I want something.

@andyd I'll take a good decade over a good one and a bad one. My medical power of attorney is complicated AF. I'm going to make sure it's know that I want DNR and no life support. I've had an interesting life. I have no plans to spend years suffering if there's no real point. As far loss, lifelong friends, since I was 3, since I was in high school, since I was in college, have become estranged over the decades. There's one I'd like to find but haven't had any luck in years. I have no family except a brother who is a narcissist from hell and has decided for the second time that we will be estranged since there's nothing I have that he can get from me. I have a cousin who doesn't understand me. I'll put that diplomatically. I have an aunt in her '80's whom I think the world of, and she's invited me to Seattle, but in will be a year or more before I'll be moved, settled, healed, and in a new rhythm managing my new responsibilities. The grim reaper cut down almost my entire family without giving me much of a break. Such is life. Well, we all know what our greatest poet said-- 'Better to have loved and lost than never have loved at all.' Strangely, I want to be on my own. It's a new adventure.

Yes it is. We get it here occasionally.
