No mud, no lotus.
I’m not. It’s the delays and chaos caused by our (long) broken system that gave the haters their opening to push for rapid deportations. Immigrants should have a much shorter wait time to get their cases decided. Everyone benefits.

A large and necessary part of the solution is funding the immigration legal system adequately so that asylum, naturalization and removal proceedings are concluded more quickly. Both R’s and D’s have failed to do so in the past. Why should we expect a bipartisan solution now? Under present admin???!

If you want to blame anyone for this, it’s Bezos. He may still hope to get whatever he wanted by trading away WaPo’s integrity, but it won’t be readers.

Good reputations are hard to build but so easy to destroy.

Pointless.

With respect, that’s not a good fit. See www.thecollector.com/edo-japan-uk... . Thinking OnlyFans is late-stage capitalism’s analog of Edo-era ukiyo-e, you’re not doing justice to either. I make no claims to understanding what @greatdismal.bsky.social may think or intend, despite being a huge fan.
The Pursuit of Pleasure: How the Floating World Defined Edo Japan | TheCollector
Ukiyo—meaning “floating world”—encapsulates the flourishing pleasure-seeking culture in Edo Japan (1603 – 1867). How did the “floating world” come to define Japan from the 17th to the 19th century?

Yes, I knew about ukiyo-e.
And I know about (but do not indulge in) OnlyFans.
And, Yes, I can connect a few dots. But seems strained to me. Gibson is entitled to be his own person, and his legion of fans can assign meaning to his actions as they will. ☮️

Wasn’t my question. Your reference to the floating world was. Did not fit my historical frame of reference and was seeking an explanation.

Interesting times: Met my first ultra-MAGA yesterday who told me the only thing that scared him was those “Communists taking over NYC and Seattle”! Said he wanted another term for Trump, more deportations, and “doing something about those damn judges blocking Trump “

Wonder how he’s coping today? 😂

They are the forward element of the retreat from MAGA. Soon they
will saying they were never really part
of the movement, and hope to drop out of sight. Scoundrels, all of them! But give MTG points for being smarter than she has acted as a Member of Congress.
