I mean, why would he get told about tweets that wouldn't interest him much?

Wait. This march isn't satire? What?

The credulity on this site right now reminds me strongly of Republican claims about the Biden crime family.

Well, it's been a minute since we needed the rules for how to advise kings.

Many conservatives (and other people) differently about people they know. Imho the real question is how integrated Haitian immigrants are within enough communities in Springfield to personally touch the folks who dislike immigration in general.

That town was dying--it needed more people, and it has significantly revived. I am not sure the white neighbors will be universally thrilled with this.

I had no idea. But the Streisand effect is sending me to go look for his work.

It's an idea scoop.

My campus reopens tomorrow and I have received my first 2026 notice to "walk like a penguin" at work.

My state has ordered that every student graduating with a bachelor's from a public institution must take a course and pass a test on American civic documents, including the Declaration, Constitution, etc. I don't think it is going work out the way legislators imagine.

But not the good kind where your day job has become irrelevant.

Without, in their case, even trying--just walking around. And there was still a lot of public and media sympathy for the killers rather than the students. It takes time for the outrage to get through.
