I think I'll be receiving mine by mail, as I didn't trust the current administration with my bank account numbers for refunds and such. I'd rather take my chances on my mailman being honest.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Random (okay, topical news-related, but random to this discussion) hivemind question:
Is there a clear, succinct answer to the online peeps who insist that it doesn't matter that the soon-to-be-former administration and its supporters are 59-1 in the courts because almost everything was dismissed due to lack of standing, which to the STBFA's supporters is just a cowardly dodge that means none of the merits have ever been addressed?
That belief of theirs that the standing argument is a cheap dodge that invalidates everything feels like bullshit (and I know that every single claim of fraud that could be either proven or disproven has been investigated and disproven, albeit never in court--but why waste everyone's time on it all over again in court?), but I am a million miles from a lawyer or a Constitutional scholar and I can't articulate why it's bullshit. Is there some brief, clear "Here's why" out there?

That which does not kill you should RUN
Is there some brief, clear "Here's why" out there?
There's literally nothing fact-based that they would accept as a valid explanation. The only answer they'll accept is "You're right; the election was rigged in favor of Biden, so therefore your guy gets to be POTUS for life."

You're right; you're right; I know you're right.
(Also, I am so annoyed that, as of the last time I checked, there still wasn't a good gif of that line; there really needs to be.)

The status is NOT quo.
Since it's all based on 2019 taxes (ie pre-pandemic), ND and I don't qualify for stimulus. Alas.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
That is such a gap, and a great reason why means testing everything isn’t great.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
That sucks, Pix.
