Does anyone happen to know (or is anyone) a digital artist who'd be willing to discuss their education / career with me, to help me counsel a young man (17) about post-HS possibilities? Especially helpful might be someone autistic or otherwise neuroatypical.

Just a few days until the new year begins and movie releases suddenly collapse into the official two genres of January: “Horror” and “Whoops”.

Curly for naked, unsauced fries.
Crinkle for ketchup, various other dipping things, or making Greek fries.
Tots for topping with a wider variety of Stuff.

All of the money that changed hands in the Teapot Dome scandal totaled less than $10 million after adjusting for inflation, and it was considered so corrupt we still teach it in high school government classes a century later.
Corruption so pungent, it wafts right off the page:

Lobbyists who do pardon deals “say their going rate is $1 million. Pardon-seekers have offered some lobbyists close to the president success fees of as much as $6 million if they can close the deal.”

Even some of the president’s closest advisers have been surprised by a number of the recent series of pardons.

In order to avoid January Depression, it’s important to give yourself things to look forward to. Like taking the Sunday of a 3-day weekend to watch the entire LotR trilogy on the big screen~ 😌

First Christmas without grandpa, and it actually went really well. I think it helps that we had the lone great-grandkid there being both adorable and hyperactive as only a 5yo on Christmas Day can be 😂😂😂

Sir Terry Pratchett is best understood as one of the most interesting, deeply ethical practical (I would say Pragmatist but I cede to actual experts) philosophers of the late 20th Century who just happened to work in deconstructed fantasy literature as his medium.

I'm going to tell my favorite story again about reflecting the certainty of beliefs back at people who don't expect it.

“You are throne destined,” Lady Erika Kirk whispered in the ear of Lord JD Vance, her lips gently touching the edge of his lobes. “Pay no attention to the detractors and haters. Rid yourself of the brown skinned trollop and I shall put my army in your service. Together we will take Washing Ton.”
Erika Kirk is a liar (and schemer).
