There is a difference between giving some a gift you know they don't like and giving someone a gift that they don't like. It's literally the thought that counts, and as someone who has been married a long time, it's important to place the thought first and the gift a distant second.

If (when) I get another tie for Father's Day, I won't necessarily like, want, or need it, but I will still cherish and appreciate it. It's nice to get things you like, but it's much nicer to be loved and appreciated.

Spotify - Brown Noise 12 hours. Blast that nice and loud. Get a fan. Call the super.

Gifts don't have to be something you like, want, or need. It's about the thought, care, and love that goes into them. Whether you like new things or old things, it doesn't matter. Gifts have subtext. Your SO probably will equate your love for the gift with your love for them. Use them both. Love them both. Love the people who gave you both.

I, for one, completely believe that Putin has hard evidence of Trump doing something salacious.

The secret to this, which works on all children, mine included, is to turn it and ask them what they think. Leads to more fun answers as well. Not right, but fun.

It means that if he's held accountable for his actions, he'll be out of the running for the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's biggest pedophile.

Magnets are a really useful thing, particularly in compasses, which allow you to find your way to Epstien Island.

Both can be true. Schumer can scheme and have no control. The Democratic Whip voted to end the shutdown. That should tell you everything.

I think it's that #believeallwomen is a hard hill to die on. Any internet troll is a Google search away from proof that you shouldn't blindly believe all women. It just reminds me of when Joe Biden had some allegations against him, and he got caught between a rock and a hard place: believe all women, just not this one.

Instead of belief, it's about respect. Whether true or not, any accusation should be taken seriously and avoid sensationalism. It's also about understanding your role. It's easy for me to say all of this about a situation thousands of miles away; I have an infinitely small role. If it happens closer to home, to someone you know, belief may be a part of that role, but it still needs to come from a place of respect and understand of the situation. If religion is any example, blind belief doesn't help anything but fuel division.

Not having a Healthcare plan is their plan.
