If this is a serious question — and not an attempt at a joke — then Springsteen is using terms like “little girl” the way that singers use the term “baby.” No one thinks all those love songs are being sung to infants.

Thank you!

“Think it’ll work?”

“It would take a miracle.”

Brilliant.

What does “HDRs” mean in this context?

I found the music to be the one bum note.

Kept sounding ominous for scenes where nothing ominous happened.

Which was really rough because (IIRC) R+G do not seem to know that they are delivering Hamlet to be executed.

Did I say that? I’ll happily take the credit, I just don’t remember it.

I agree with this. It also works the other way sometimes like that time a reporter told John McEnroe he was wrong to call Serena the best women’s tennis player of all time.

Those countries probably don’t have one province that has 6700% more people than another and yet receives equal representation in the Senate. You read that right: CA (39.43 million) has 6700% more people than WY (587,000)! That’s not democracy.

Unlike the myth, the Constitution is not a masterpiece designed by geniuses. It is a compromise meant to win the support of at least nine states (even though the Articles of Confederation required unanimous consent). They feared small states would refuse to ratify it w/o equal Senate representation.

Ah, sorry. That’s fascinating too. May help explain his antipathy towards MLK.

I consider it confirmed. They spent every moment together for 30 years, Tolson was his sole heir, moved into Hoover’s house, and accepted the flag that was draped over his coffin.

If that’s not a spouse, I don’t know what is.

He knows he’s lying. It he also knows this propaganda will find its marks in rural whites in the South, Plains, and Mountain West.

Trump was embarrassed by Fauci during Covid, and he will have his vengeance. And if that means that thousands of Americans will die unnecessarily, then that’s the way it goes.
April 4, 2025 at 1:50 AM
It’s not incompetence! At the risk of sounding like Little Marco, Robert Kennedy Jr knows exactly what he’s doing!

This is a plan to cripple public health infrastructure, so that Trump’s ignorance will never be corrected again as it was during COVID.

Hoover was the exception that proves the rule. When you ruthlessly and relentlessly surveil innocent ppl so that you can blackmail them bc their activism threatens the powers that be, then you deserve to be outed.

One of the worst Americans of the 20th Century.

As someone who loves the Princess Bride, and hates to see it being misused, please tell me why what I called out was not mansplaining.

He incorrectly and unnecessarily corrected a woman who made a true and accurate statement. Textbook mansplaining.

Me too! My Brown poli sci degree is just a BA, not a PhD, but still.

Between this and Dr. Alawieh, this is probably the most that Brown has been on the front page of the Times in many years.

I’m hoping that it doesn’t roll over the way that Columbia did. Will be making calls tomorrow!

What’s BS is that a woman posted a meme, and you — who claims to agree with her —felt the need to incorrectly tell her that you were making her meme “more accurate.” Be better.
April 3, 2025 at 12:42 AM
How is that “more accurate”?The meme says “for months.” Stop mansplaining.

One disgrace followed by another.

Somehow? No one ever talked about it! The media made sure that criticizing Trump on policy was seen as passé. They had the nerve to accuse Harris of not discussing policy specifics, while she ran against the dumbest and most substance-less candidate in American history. Great job MSM!
