All in all, I’ve spent a lot less time navigating the internal mechanisms of clock towers than cartoons led me to expect.

I’ve been thinking and it’s kind of exceptional that not a single person said “Hey now” after the piggy comment.

Remember that time when the President of the United States referred to a female reporter as “Piggy” and the mainstream media didn’t say shit?

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

CIA concludes Saudi crown prince ordered Jamal Khashoggi’s assassination
Audio recordings, intercepted phone calls and other intelligence link Mohammed bin Salman to killing that Saudis say was conducted by rogue elements.

This, like so many individual things, should be immediately disqualifying.

Imagine this happened at your workplace.

Maaaan. I was a little shitty to a guy working at McDonald’s and then he was real shitty to me and I was real shitty back.

I feel bad. It shouldn’t take twenty minutes to get a chicken sandwich and a happy meal, but I shouldn’t have been shitty first or last.

My bad, McDude.

FOX: Here's a viral video of landscapers who were being addressed by a CBP agent. What do you say to people who say that falls outside the purview of getting criminals out?

GREG BOVINO: Martha, do we know the criminal records of those so-called landscapers?

“The US has the best healthcare in the world if you can afford it!”

You can’t afford it. Star of one of the biggest TV shows of all time can’t afford it.

Capitalism is a disease, and every day it goes on our prognosis gets worse.

But we have a cure right in front of us.

This is the most glamorous opening to an article about a white supremacist flattering journalist who lied to her readers and editors while having an affair with narcissistic crank who eats roadkill, swims in sewer water, will cause children to die, and is 50 years her senior that I've ever read.

Saying "he liked 15 year old girls" right after "he was into the barely legal type" is... well, it's something.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

What format do you like your books in?

I got a non-mass-market paperbook from Jeff's Place, and literally said "ew gross" when I took it out of the package, and then promptly returned it.

I want my books printed on the cheapest paper possible, and small enough to stuff into a pocket!

I keep thinking I should reread these. I guess the time has come.
Let's make it official:

SHELVED BY GENRE's next unit, spanning ALL of 2026, will be a delve into the depths of modern genre with J.R.R. Tolkien's THE HOBBIT, THE LORD OF THE RINGS, and THE SILMARILLION.

If you don't have those, you can grab them through our Bookshop:

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

If the national leader of the Democratic Party does not find it disqualifying for a disgraced politician to baselessly say a Democratic candidate *supported the terror attacks on 9/11* and not accepts that hateful lie, but votes for the scum that advanced it? How can that party pretend it wants us?
