Same with Citizen Kane, but can’t find anyone to agree with me.

Since the y axis is just ordinal quantities, it's odd they didn't show it as a bar or line graph (with perhaps a little more specificity as to year, month). Clearly someone at WSJ was having a laugh.

You could say that her burial was below par.

So they’re going to be upholstered?

What do you mean by “fast vet”? Or was that a typo for fascist?

The REAL "Jeffrey Epstein" was the friends we made along the way.

Yes, that will also stop clouds from stealing food.

110%. They’ve reopened CMS, but no other components of HHS.

They’re the only ones who the leadership class will sign off on.

We're on the same wavelength; mutual aid, food banks, all good. ICE seems to be focusing on dense neighborhoods in certain cities; in the suburbs its impracticable. So many vulnerable people, so many unmet needs...

#1 is a great suggestion. It's real and actionable. People have been suggesting it since 2017, but as a practical matter, the AFL-CIO or Indivisible has to be the one to start it.
#2 is still too vague. Which vulnerable folks? Assuming "non-whites", how do you propose to protect them?

Somebody spelled "always" wrong.

Interestingly enough, it has a sensitivity dial you can set, ranging from "10% illegal" to "100% illegal".

Needless to say, we should have Jay Leno wander around Universal City to ask these questions.

History will move on to techno-feudalism, and we will not go back. In 15 years, the Queen of California will declare war on the King of Nevada over Colorado River water rights.

I'm sure Vlad told him it was a WONDERFUL idea, and that he should model it after the Winter Palace.

perhaps I'm just being solipsistic. I wouldn't myself be snide and dismissive if it wasn't warranted by the facts on the ground.
October 23, 2025 at 2:21 PM
Not sure it can be done. Lefties are not good at snide/dismissive/cartoonish/un-nuanced.

It reminds me of the joke they used to tell in the Soviet Union:
"Q. What's the difference between communism and capitalism?"
"A. Under Capitalism, one person oppresses another, and under communism, it's exactly the reverse."

Desire to oppress is built into the genome.
