In a better world this man would be in a mental institution getting the care he needs but instead he is representing Georgia in Congress

Today is January 6, the feast of the Epiphany and the setting for James Joyce’s gorgeous story “The Dead” and its somehow even more gorgeous 1987 film adaptation: John Huston’s final movie, and one of my favorite films ever made. I’ve seen it a dozen times and I get more from it with each pass.

The funniest thing about Jew-haters on social media is how they use terms like “goy” and “Talmud” as if they’d cracked some secret code about how Jews really talk and think. It’s so corny and lame. (I’ve never heard anyone call a non-Jew a goy or cite the Talmud for anything!)

This book about the 2018 hate-crime murder of gay Jewish teenager Blaze Bernstein by neo-Nazi scumbag Sam Woodward sounds compelling. But also: Their names are Woodward and Bernstein? Seriously? This is the kind of thing that makes a person feel like they live in a glitch.

I’ve spent nearly all my free time in the past couple weeks on Heated Rivalry: watching and rewatching episodes, listening to podcasts, reading interviews etc. If you haven’t seen it yet: SEE IT. The first two eps are kinda porny but if you aren’t in tears by the final two then you’re a monster.

Spent my Christmas listening to straight guys with hockey podcasts gush over Heated Rivalry and then watching the series finale and this day truly has filled me with love and goodwill

Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

"You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen
But do you recall the most famous reindeer of all?"

If Rudolph is really the most famous of the reindeer, then how come he’s the one we wouldn’t remember? 🤔

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.
There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I’ve stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an “aura” around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before. In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks — Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country. In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to “ace” this Examination and, in fact, most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all. Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am “slowing up,” am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am “slowing up,” but it’s not now! After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it’s seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it. They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful “source” of information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
