Lord Businessman II

My mother was the breadwinner in the family, first to get a college degree in the family, and when she was pregnant with me her boss came into her office, told her that she'd never be the same accountant again, and fired her on the spot. That was in nineteen eighty two

"Fully Depreciated" is a tax and accounting term that indicates the asset is past its useful economic life, the sort of incredibly nerdy business reference that I would make but in this context its about a young woman, which prompts one to ask, well, how would her value be going down

RFK jr. is a eugenicist crank that thinks its good for old people to die

The entire fake ceasefire gambit, and it absolutely was a gambit, bought them about a week of elevated but not terrifying oil prices

My mother and Jimmy Carter agree on something, will wonders never cease
