This man is now not just a literal criminal many times over but a straight up murderer. Any MAGA dipshit who used to extol their dear leader as someone who never started a war is invited to go fuck themselves..

This year my sisters and my sister-in-law all came up to ring in the New Year with me in Seattle, while Shobhit is in India—I was especially excited for them to see the amazing drone shows we now get every year, but we didn't see them at all, thanks to thicker fog than I had ever seen.

Shobhit's visiting his mother in New Delhi right now, and this is both wild and horrifying. I just got on FaceTime to ring in the New Year on his side of the world (this happened at 11:30 a.m. Pacific Time), and he told me some of the smog was even visible *inside* his mom's apartment.

Frank is wearing a very cool sweater with flames that reach up from the waist against a black backdrop, and I complimented it just as Steven was passing the open door to the conference room I was in.

Frank at work has been going on and on for months about how POPEYE is his favorite movie. For some reason last week the Stallone movie OVER THE TOP came up in conversation as another favorite.

Well! No Victoria Clipper for the return trip this evening after all: due to “unforeseen mechanical issues beyond our control,” all sailings today were cancelled! There were many alternative options, none of them ideal; one was to reschedule the trip to another day—on the day before Christmas Eve??
