'There is no big conflict between me and my ex-wife and there has never been one apart of the occasional disagreements about the shared bank account of the kids,' he wrote. 'No big of a deal, just small issues. The only contact I have with my ex is whenever something has to be arranged for the kids." The man said that his son wants to have a party with six of his friends for his upcoming birthday. His ex-wife made the arrangements as he will be at her home on the day of the celebration. 'He wants to go to a big playground,' the man said of his son, adding that it was about 12.5 miles away. 'My son came up to me and asked if I would attend his party and drive half of his friends to the playground and be there when he celebrates his birthday with his friends,' he continued.

Mark Cuban Turned Down the Offer When Asked to Submit to be Kamala Harris' Vice President in 2024 Presidential Election: ‘I'm Not Very Good as the Number Two Person'
During a recent appearance on 'The Bulwark' podcast, Mark Cuban revealed he was invited to submit himself for consideration to become former Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate in the 2024 presidential election. However, the 'Shark Tank' star, an outward supporter of the Harris campaign, turned the offer down. Interviewer Tim Miller opened the segment by prefacing that he had heard rumors at MSNBC that Cuban was tapped to join Harris on the campaign trail.

'I wouldn't tell you this if it wasn't pretty good. Somebody I kind of trust said that they asked you to send in VP vetting papers and you said, 'No, the list would be too long.' Is that true?' Cuban confirmed the rumors to be true and elaborated on his decision to bow out of the race. 'The second part of that, my response was I'm not very good as the number two person,' Cuban explained. 'And so if the last thing we need is me telling Kamala, you know, the president that, 'No, that's a dumb idea.' Right? And I'm not real good at shaking hands and kissing babies.' Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was the one ultimately selected to run alongside Harris. There was speculation that her runner-up choices would've been Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, former governor of North Carolina Roy Cooper or Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. Donald Trump, who went on to win the 2024 election, selected JD Vance as his vice president.

This Is Officially The WORST-Rated Beer In The World
Beers can be as nuanced as a bottle of wine—each crafted with its own unique blend of hops, grains, water, and yeast. Those who prefer hoppier beers might reach for an IPA, while those looking for a more decadent brew might choose an imperial stout. And while people might have different taste buds and preferences when it comes to beer, one thing drinkers can align on is what beers they don't want to drink. The popular review site Beer Advocate keeps an up-to-date list of the all-time worst-rated beers from around the world—and it might shock some to learn that one of the United State's most popular brands tops the list. Budweiser Select 55, clocking in at a low 2.4% ABV, takes the crown no one wants to win as the worst-rated beer. This ranking is determined by averaging user ratings, excluding beers with too few reviews, and continuously updating the list as new data comes in. There appears to be a trend among the list of worst-ranking beers, in that the majority of them are light beers. Following Budweiser Select 55 (which I've never even heard of, btw), comes Natural Light, Miller Extra Light, Keystone Light, and Natural Ice. Budweiser Select 55 has an average rating of 1.65 stars out of 5, while the beers that rank second through fifth worst score 1.77, 1.81, 1.85, and 1.86, respectively. One of the reviews for Budweiser Select 55 stated, "This really is the worst beer ever made." Ouch. But it's not all bad news for Budweiser. The brand's classic Budweiser did rank #63 in terms of popularity. We'll take that! You Might Also Like Insanely Easy Weeknight Dinners To Try This Week 29 Insanely Delicious Vodka Cocktails
