When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.
This is outrageous.
Ohio doesn't know who the fuck Vivek Ramaswamy is, or whence he came. They can't spell his last name. He is not of them.
Assuming no ratfuckery, he'll have a hard time winning.
Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

They see themselves as sole authorities and princes of "network states" with an eternal peasant class that is uneducated, miseducated and easy to lead by the nose.
They are training ppl to not think.
This is why I get irrationally angry when folks get smug about literacy et al ..
Because folks are rushing to rehabilitate Nazis but just casually mocking folks who are being purposely undereducated for decades

The official explanation is that the captain murdered every passenger then took a seven hour joyride with a plane full of dead bodies.
And people are spectacularly unconcerned with the fallout of this posthumous conviction.
The official explanation for MH370 will never sit right with me. It feels like convicting someone of murder without producing the body.
