Gotta figure out what a woman is, first of all.

I had that figured out decades ago. The libs are the ones having a problem with it.

Then move on to trying to figure out ever even more complicated things, like figuring out women

Now, there is a challenge!

Just announced that the James Webb space telescope has intercepted a verified message from an alien life form.

Roughly translated, it reads:

"We've been trying to reach you about the extended warranty on your space telescope."

I can only imagine how ecstatic NASA personnel must have been to see these, given the odds of the JWST failing to deploy properly.  Kind of brings a tear to my eye, to be honest.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

What?

They still haven't bowed to wokeness and canceled Webb's name and renamed it the RuPaul-Elton John-Ellen Degeneres-George Takai Anti-cis Normal Anti White Privilege Transgender/No gender/Fluid gender/Genderless Space Telescope?

I'm offended.
