And the chances of any *reputable* prosecutor charging James are vanishingly small... and any other type of prosecutor (!) has seen what happens, so ... Of course, one should never underestimate the power of stupidity.

Dr. Zachary Rubin's Substack article this morning outlined very unfortunate (to say the least) updates to the CDC's Autism page. Ugh.

The CDC’s Autism Page Shows Something Is Very Wrong Inside the Agency
Something is deeply broken inside the CDC, and the agency’s newly revised autism and vaccine page is the clearest evidence yet.

I find myself in "edit mode" when reading... it is, I think, one of the perils of being a writer. "Oh, why did they do that? Oh, that word should be deleted." And so on.

Thank you.

Hmm. Might've been my sister Olivia? though perhaps me. We had one of those ... interesting relationships, though it improved over time.
I suspect he may have been more forthcoming about me when I wasn't there, if that makes sense. Anyway, thank you for that!

Probably more likely you met my sister (half-sister) Olivia. He and I weren't all that much in touch when he was at GWU... long story.

Um, I hope I don't need to say that my father's agreement was referring to Watson, not the quality of his book?
(Though he was enough of an intellectual snob that he'd probably agree on the book, too...)

Thank you, and he would (and did) agree with that. 100%.
It's so cool to run into people who know my father's work AND know his book! 😀

Aha! That's my father, who wrote "The Eighth Day of Creation" about the discovery of the DNA formation, and who knew Watson well... and did *not* like him. The feeling was mutual.

They have the nerve to say this (from an AP article):
“This unprecedented injunction makes a mockery of the separation of powers. Courts hold neither the power to appropriate nor the power to spend.” (US DOJ)
Um... 😵💫

Doesn't anyone know how to math any more? I mean, I was never exactly *great* at math, but ... even I can tell that three ways versus two ways is a whole different equation?!?

Most people don't pay much attention ... they're just out there living their lives. Those of us who DO pay attention often chastise them, but that's missing the point. If people don't know what's being done on their behalf, that's the fault of the people doing the things, who aren't making it clear.

Thank you for putting a pumpkin over his face...
Also, regarding Vance - someone else on Substack (I think it was Robert Hubbell - @rbhubbell.bsky.social) commented in his post today that Vance is "terminally unctuous," which I think is perfect.
