A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity.
Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.
As a crossword puzzle constructor, I'm thrilled that ANORA won Best Picture. It'll make my life slightly easier for years to come.

JD Vance and Marco Rubio in suits sitting on a gold couch in the oval office. Vance looks unbearably smug. Just a punchable grin. Rubio looks nauseated and humiliated, like he’s trying to disappear into the into the couch.
The body language could not be more different and is exactly why I despise each of them.
Pleased as ever to have the Universal puzzle published on this President's Day. It's called "Building Blocks" and you can find it all over the country in papers like the Boston Globe and NY Daily News.

Our long national nightmare is over.
Jimi Hendrix.
This is increasingly just not a very serious country.

Welp, we're doing this again.
Can't say that I feel good about it. Not looking forward to it.
But we got through the first four years and we'll just have to get through this, too.
Won't be fun. But we'll just have to do our best, and hope there's something positive waiting on the other side.
1/2 Pattern we're notably seeing w Musk, Thiel, Bezos, Zuck,etc:
People who must have been smart, or at least cunning, in their original biz naturally assume they are savants on everything. No idea that public policy is actually "complicated" and involves "details" and inconvenient "facts"
Thus...
First puzzle on the first day of 2025!
Hope you'll find some time to have a go at my LA Times puzzle today. I'm really happy with how this one turned out, and I hope you'll get a kick out of it.

Jimmy Carter had the most honorable and fundamentally decent post-presidency of anyone in American history, and it's not particularly close.
Good for Joe Biden.
Our ongoing use of the death penalty - America being one of the few developed countries in the world to still use it - remains a national travesty and a global embarrassment.
It’s cruel and unusual punishment, and it should have been abolished decades ago.
My final crossword for the year is for @usatoday.com, and it's a fun little puzzle called "Up-Dating" that you can find in today's paper or on the USAT website at puzzles.usatoday.com/game/989fe7c....
Happy solving, everyone!

The ERA is long overdue, and I dearly hope that Senator Gillibrand succeeds here.
62% of Americans demand government-ensured healthcare as trust in for-profit system hits historic low. New Gallup poll shows record-high support for universal healthcare, with bipartisan frustration mounting over rising costs and systemic inequities.
Universal healthcare isn’t radical. Every other wealthy country has at least some version of it.
Americans want their country to catch up and recognize healthcare as a human right.
HERE WE GO!
Pleased as ever to be published in today's edition of the Los Angeles Times!
You can find this ever-so-slightly-oversized crossword puzzle in today's LA Times (Wednesday December 4) or on the LA Times website (www.latimes.com/games/daily-...).

Massive away win for the little fella.
It is possible I spend a bit too much time on Duolingo.

It's still so new. And I mean - I kind of don't blame them, insomuch that you can't chase every fleeting social media fad (which, for all we know, is maybe what this will end up being).
I will! I think I'm really only following a very small number of Celtics reporters so far. It feels like the sports world is slowly catching up here (there isn't even an official NBA account yet or anything, for one).
Oh, do they not let you do private posts here? I had no idea.
So far, I've found enough of them. It's tough, I follow like 1500+ folks on the other platform - and granted, some of those accounts are long dormant or the people are deceased or whatever. But this is ascendant, and I like that.
A very fine quiz show host.
Utterly bonkers and horribly distorted worldview, but a very fine quiz show host. I guess that counts for something.
