The latter question did cross my mind when I first read today about the orange shitgibbon’s puerile potempkinizing performative politicking.
I’m certain Putin is laughing himself all the way to Alaska.

Had anyone asked me a week ago who Sydney Sweeney is I’d have said, “Sydney who?”
I’m still asking that question.
But, I’ve now added, “And, why should I care?”

This is the person claiming Sydney Sweeney ads are “causing panic on the left” … remember who she is:

Given an already (apparently) established precedent that parents can withdraw their children from class sessions the parents find objectionable, PragerU could be cut off at the knees before they get started … if enough parents do their ‘fiduciary’ duty and vociferously object.

Apparently, threats and tantrums are *NOT* the best negotiation tools, especially when ‘you haven’t got the cards’ (and the other guy does).

Ex-DOGE staffer allegedly injured in attempted carjacking — leading Trump to float federal takeover of D.C.
Former DOGE staffer Edward Coristine was allegedly assaulted over the weekend, CBS News has confirmed.
Given Trump’s trumpeting about the apparent car-jacking in DC of a DOGE-boy – and his doing so before the police report was released (his usual MO!) – it is not surprising that a willfully uninformed segment of the population believes his catastrophe cacophony.

Somehow that sounds like an “I double-dog dare you” challenge (though that’s hard to do well after shooting one of your dogs) and I will bet a new pair of boots to a can of beans that the South Park team will rise to the occasion at some point to come.

Quoting James Gleick here from his NYRB review essay, “The Parrot in the Machine”:
“linguist Emily M. Bender and the sociologist Alex Hanna call them ‘synthetic text extruding machines.’”
That last descriptive phrase conjures some wild images.

I concur. Agents generally are not lawyers … and lawyers specialize because their special knowledge has specific situational value.

“the righteousness of work”?!?
That is f’ing rich! The people who frame everything in terms of ‘morality’ and ‘justness’ are those least likely to be moral/ethical in their work and there is nothing just about what they are doing.
