Child protective services investigated her 4 times because she let her kids play outside
"I was told that children could never be left alone, inside or outside the home—EVEN IN THEIR OWN BEDROOMS—until they were 13 years old."
I'm totally immune to the kidnapping scare stories that cause people to keep their kids inside but I'm very susceptible to stories like this. We need laws delineating an affirmative right. I don't want to have to have a theory of mind for a social worker in order to parent

Just earlier today, after catching a glimpse of Noem on the TV without audio, I looked—really looked—and described her panache to my partner as “ostentatious impracticality.” That totally tracks with your thesis here of her role in the maga universe/project.

I am in favor of telling them loudly and explicitly that the President—their governmental equal—is making them look *impotent.* While the henchmen want to destroy Gotham, they don’t want to be publicly neutered of all future influence while doing it. They acutely fear the loss of power and prestige.
