No, Maxwell can't TALK her way out of prison; she's trying to SILENCE her way out. That's why she pled the 5th before congress. How can you plead the 5th when you're already in prison for the crime(s)?

@c_9 Our son in law goes out of his way - far, far - for his DL renewal pic; weird haircuts, loopy grins, you name it.

Have you ever seen a more cadaverous shit-licking grin (on Trump, that is)

@auscandoc Yes, I knew they had personal income taxes. Didn’t know about the hike.

@auscandoc "Tax hikes"? How can you hike non-existent taxes? How many provinces have no sales taxes?

@CStamp I hope I can do the same. Not a backflip on ice, but go out on my own terms.
Thx

@CStamp "Olympic skating...fixed? Naaahhhh"

Are those trumbrels that I hear in the distance? If Netflix had existed in 1789 it'd have paid Marie Antoinette $40M for an hour of her time.

Sometimes #TACO is good.

Ok. Hear me out. It was reported that the Paris #Olympics organizers set aside 300,000 condoms for the athletes. There were 10,714 athletes: that's 28 per.
Seems like THAT'S the real olympics. Why not give them their day? We have Paralympics, why not Pornolympics? We don't even need to change event names:
- marathon
- relay
- hammer throw
- vault
- floor exercise
- high dive
- sycnronized...anything.

@VeroniqueB99 Canada’s feeling pretty left out- the only mention is its LA consulate refusing #Epstein entry into #Canada in 2018.

@mawr neither. Or neither.

@AlSweigart Jimmy Wales is an interesting guy- lives a very ordinary, humble, even, life. Somewhere in the UK, I think.

Excellent #Guardian piece on #CatherineOhara
