the editorial about the class action suit against social media companies.

Jacob and Shelby at Xfinity on Sunday for excellent customer service.

Onions to

the government human resources department for gossiping and leaking information.

those who pay lip service to civil rights icons in the morning but are back to business as usual by the afternoon.

those who choose support the candidate who tried to violently overthrow our democracy.

the residences on 25th Street at Petersville with business signs in the right-a-way.

the internet service that has been down for over two days and won’t return your phone calls as to what’s happening with our system.

the columnist who doesn’t seem to understand that most of the “tumult” that occurs is due to the hatred of the former federal elected official by people just like him.
