The colors are heading this way!!!!

Raised in B'klyn as a Dodger fan in the 50s & had inherent bias against the Yankees. Now living in Boston area I am a committed Red Sox fan -- which reinforced that anti-Yankee attitude. Their collapse in the ALDS is made all the more pleasurable by the fact that it is at hands of a Canadian team!

The Yankees are one loss away from the offseason.

And playoff elimination means another wasted year of prime Aaron Judge.

Kimmel wasn’t fired for his remarks on Kirk—he was fired for using his platform to expose and critique our government. Enough! We especially need large corporations, with the money and influence they have, to fight back. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ki...

For a long time, it was a conventional wisdom that the President did not really affect the economy. But it turns out they can do a lot to fuck it up.

It is time to cut out the indefensible reactionary bullsh*t and demand evidence to support the myth of "bloated" federal bureaucracies "riddled with corruption." It's Bill Maher-level BS that feeds the crowds cheering on Muskovite lions and is itself riddled with stereotypical lies and half-truths.

This is insanity....

What is happening is not merely a tragedy in the making. It is ironic as well. The very tools developed to construct and facilitate the Liberal Administrative State are now being used to destroy it and construct and Authoritarian State.

This is a national emergency:

Not quite sure how they do their programming, but the TCM Channel seems to be focused on the political lately. Today they replayed Chaplin's 1940 THE GREAT DICTATOR. One hopes there is a film in the works that can carry the message about the fast emerging Trumpist regime.

Is tghis tghe premise of the next King novel?

New, from me: Looking closer at the effort to induce mass civil servant resignations.
*The offers are not real buyouts
*Feds should read the fine print
*If mass resignations occur, it is really bad for the rest of us

My "general despair":

As a peer reviewer for several public administration journals, I assume the integrity of the research I am being asked to assess, just as the journal editors themselves assume the credibility of the submissions they are forwarding. Perhaps we need a "trust but verify" approach.
