Stevie said β€œYou'll never get away from the sound/Of the woman that loved you” and she meant it ✨

Just to hammer this in:

I don't know of an example in US history of comparable *in-person humiliation* for a US president. And of course for the country.

Trump will soon realize how visibly he was "owned." In view of the whole world.

These two a friends. Period. End of story.

I’ve covered a variety of summits. And I know what admiration looks like.

That’s the end of the world order as we knew it. A sad day for everyone.

And the thing non-elect is now in the UK to convince Starmer not to re-prosecute her as a UK subject.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Everything good and terrible in America is hyper accentuated in Los Angeles county. In a way like No Other place in the United States and its territories, you will see every great thing in America to the max there, and every awful, horrifying aspect there turned up to 11.

It’s just the way the…

I hope you might remember me from Bolshoi ballet encounters. Might I DM you about my forthcoming history of Moscow? Thank you! Simon

Will the Humanities Survive Artificial Intelligence? Maybe not as we’ve known them. But, in the ruins of the old curriculum, something vital is stirring.

Only a Chat-GPT-addled bro could write this misogynistic slop.

Such a piece could only be written by a Chat-GTP addled bro. One of my own students is the β€œPaolo” used as one of the prof’s guinea pigs. Hated his course. No soul.
