Canada is known for it's lush forests, its politeness & its kitschy & horrifying roadside attractions & tourist traps.
There's plenty more where the talking tree came from.
Don't believe me? Google "Happy Rock, Manitoba"

15?
Haha, no. 15 is just what they'll admit to when pressed about it.
For the SUPER fundamentalist men [no religion specified], 15 is more of an upper limit.

The real secret extra-good stuff happens in the private members' clubs, alumni-sponsored networking events, summer internships at friends' family firms, etc.

The film was, "Pretty Baby," with Susan Sarandon & Keith Carradine.
There most definitely was justified controversy surrounding the film and no, it wasn't, "phony." There's a fine line between depicting abuse & glorifying it.
Pervs like you went to see the film so you could ogle the pre-teen girl.

Yeah, the least surprising development of 2025 has been the marriage of egos between the PodSave bros & The Bulwark. The Venn diagram btwn neo-libs & neo-cons is a circle.
I keep banging the drum about leftists not trusting The Bulwark, but I fear their influence with Dems is only growing stronger.

Schumer is a problem, but he isn't Speaker, nor is he in the House of Representatives.
Chuck Schumer is Senate Minority Leader, as he was chosen by his fellow Democrats in the Senate.

For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have repeatedly debunked. And many teachers and parents don't kno...

Yes, that also seems plausible. Could be a shortened, "auld."

"Neither is Cromwell such an all[?] crusty conditioned fellow as I took him for."
Abbreviations were so wanton then, I don't trust that the, "al," necessarily stands for, "all." Could be, "altogether," or something else entirely - needs more exemplars.

I live in MA & trust that Warren believes what she says, but I also think she & other progressive Dems are putting unearned faith in their colleagues. I keep thinking about this interview. There were a few moments that exasperated me, but this one stands out as an exemplar:

I agree with you, but it's also why I can't & won't trust any elected Democratic senator.
I think the, "progressive," senators really do understand what's at stake, but are still prioritizing comity over change. Leadership should have been - at a minimum- called out after the last budget fight.
