Master and Commander: Monkey Business
25 Dec 1810 // 12-gun brig HMS Monkey, part of the blockade of Lorient, ran aground and was wrecked on Belle-Île in Quiberon Bay in a gale. Her commanding officer and one seaman died trying to reach the shore, and the rest of her crew were taken prisoner by the French. #RoyalNavy #NavalHistory

The French equivalent of the TSA probably creates a two square meter charcuterie spread each night from confiscated food.
Jealous. We once had Camembert confiscated at Charles de Gaulle because it counted at a "liquid."

The flat-earthers have argued online that the moon landings are "a load of hooey" — and we should explain this, with a voice arguing that the landings are real, and another arguing that they were filmed at Area 51. There's a genuine debate here. If we cut down the Aldrin quotes, we'd have the time.
Belatedly, this line from Weiss' memo is...something
Let's get someone who says banishing to CECOT was legit, she says
Here's the thing: There's a consensus among legal experts that *wasn't* legit
You can find someone who says moon is made outta Fluffernutter. Doesn't mean you should quote 'em

Sean Duffy on blue states: "What I can do is I can pull their money. That's the leverage I do have ... I guarantee you that the federal taxpayer is not going to fund their roads and bridges and their systems when they are putting illegals on the roads."

Just going to guess that the "radar interference" is, at most, that a wind farm can show up on radar.
Burgum: "Today we're sending notifications to the 5 large offshore wind projects that are under construction that their leases will be suspended due to national security concerns ... the Dept of War has come back conclusively that these large offshore wind programs create radar interference"

At least it will be easy to revert.
So they’re really gonna go with “The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Center” huh
Like they literally just pasted his name at the top regardless of whether it made plain sense in English

Did anyone else think it was hilarious that in the avengers movies, someone says that with the infinity stones thanos can achieve his goal with a snap of his fingers, and it sounds like a figure of speech, but it winds up that he literally needs to snap?

I’d maybe take a closer look at the financial records of Cantor Fitzgerald.
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you
LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times
F: Not a 600% cut
L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

I will say this: even if obvious, unfettered is a good title for that book. I’m not sure what american canto is supposed to indicate, except that the author has a really inflated sense of self importance.

Woke up from a nap today to the news from Australia, justas two of our kids were at a Chanukah event at our synagogue.
The news filled me with deep sadness, and also made fears that I’m normally able to dismiss as unfounded, feel much more rational.
