Looking forward to listening to a new podcast (new to me) on Trump news called Cleanup on Aisle 45. There's been a lot of legal stuff going on this week alone and I need some commentary.

I'm listening to Vanity Fair on Audible. I'm sure I read it once but don't remember it, and bloody hell, this book is LONG. Thought I was near the end but still have six hours to go. It's like War and Peace.
(Worth it, though).

I'm not the main character, but that doesn't mean I don't have a life and a backstory, even if it is only to doppelganger the protagonist.

Duolingo again seriously ticking me off. I
I have no idea what the answer to this is. The answer given is no help whatsoever because the letters look different when joined up. I'll have to give up and lose my progress with still no clue as to how to do this!

Absolutely, there are some constituencies where if all of those who didn't vote had turned up and spoiled their ballot papers 'spoiled ballots' would outnumber the papers in favour of the winning candidate. Politicians would HAVE to take notice of our dissatisfaction with the voting system.

This is a great article. I wanted to quote post from it, but would have ended up with most of it, so easier if you just read the whole thing.
I see that the Wall Street Journal is hyping a fake trend of "stay-at-home girlfriends." As with tradwives, it's obvious that these women are actually selling softcore porn to very dumb men.

Tradwives are making male loneliness worse
There's serious money in peddling fantasies of female submission online, but it may be exacerbating male loneliness

What's clearly needed is a "sex ban". Women of the USA should all refuse it until the men come to their senses. There is precedent...
