salacious Venmo messages too...

WTF is up with people including incriminating and/or embarrassing messages with Venmo payments - then making them public?!?  this can't be just a GQP thing, can it?  (Re: Gaetz)
What kind of name is Bongbong for a president?

that is funny, but can't believe they would elect the son of the former dictator
I mean Duarte was kind of a mess, but this doesn't seem like a good thing for democracy


this said it well
Filipino columnist Benjamin Pimentel could only describe this bewildering plot twist in the language of high fantasy: “It’s as if Kylo Ren emerged and the Empire is back in power.”

Was going to post this in Meanwhile In Canada until I saw the sub headline

Vancouver Arby’s manager faces assault by milkshake

Then the kicker

Steven Sharp also faces 8 counts of child porn charges


Oh it gets better

When investigators got a search warrant for his digital devices, they said they found a video of Sharp urinating into a milkshake mix. Sharp “confessed” he did that at least twice “for sexual gratification,” officials said.

So I cancelled and Airbnb rental today online. It asked me for a reason, and I simply typed "We decided the stay somewhere else."

But I had to contact Airbnb, because the refund is scheduled to go to a credit card we no longer have. When on the phone with "J" from Airbnb, she referenced the recept, which I myself brought up at the same time.

Turns out I mistyped. Instead of typing "stay" I typed "shat".


And in case anyone cares:
To get the refuund on teh new card with the new number, you have to work it out with your bank. Airbnb can only refund to the original card number.

Also, if you have parital remaning payments on other Airbnb bookings, you can't manually change the payment card until you get a payment link email three days before the due date.
Fascinating

wouldn't it have been grammatically correct to say 'we decided to shat somewhere else"
