Oof. My old boss is sending me FoxNews clips. He's an expat and this is where he's still getting his information?  I guess they're very conservative in the Philippines and that's what's available. I'm fine with different points of view but one more clip of Tucker Carlson saying something stupid is going to drive me up a wall.
You'd be advised to pay attention to Tucker Carlson.  He tells it like it is, depressing as it seems.
I cannot and will not watch CNN. Fox news is better but I try not to not put my political views on here.
Me neither, but others just can't help themselves.  I feel obliged to guide them off their ignorant path, hopeless as it may seem.

Morning, muchachos.
Good morning, Bret.

Any cigars on the agenda for this weekend?
Not looking good. Tomorrow is go-live day. Looking to be a long, ugly day.
I am in the 80th minute of a 20-minute meeting. So what I'm saying is, I hear you.

I try to find news that isn't editorialized but that is not an easy task.

I'll say.  Because there's no such thing.  There has never been any such thing.  Objective journalism is a myth most popularized by William Randolph Hearst and Edward R. Murrow.

Went on a Costco run. Not sure that was a good idea but I was concerned we didn't have bread for lunch. $236 later, can't remember if I picked up any bread.

Remember when you could walk in to Costco and practically have a meal just on samples? Good times.

I try to find news that isn't editorialized but that is not an easy task. I believe both extremes are ridiculous.

Also agree in keeping politics out of here but at the same time I'm not going to censor the posts, despite popular opinion.
I will stop with the politics, out of respect for you. Except for my thank god/WTF post on 11/4/2020. :D
There is no use in it anyway; impossible for either side to convince the other to look at things from a different perspective.
I can look at it from any number of perspectives....just happens that all of them say I'm right!
