Played $1/$3 NLHE poker last night at @RWCatskills. In for $507, out for $820. Took a brief break for dumpling soup with udon noodles at Good Friends Market.
I went to the poker room at Resorts World Catskills on Friday. Played $1/$3 NLHE. Bought in for $302, cashed out for $1207. 😎 My dog Diego was, once again, fascinated by my hand histories.
Love the new poker room at Resorts World Catskills, and not just because last night I bought in for $311 and cashed out for $812. My dog Diego was very interested in my poker stories.

Every accusation is a confession with them.
Andrew's service in the Royal Navy during the Falklands War was actually creditable, though not more so than that of many others, and he was probably at the peak of his career when he returned. (pp. 52-55)
Andrew went to Gordonstoun boarding school, like his father and his brother Charles. A classmate described him as "a pompous git," and he was beaten up so badly by his classmates that he had to go to the infirmary. (p. 32)
Sarah Ferguson's mother had an affair with Prince Philip (Sarah's future father-in-law), and later left Sarah's father for an Argentinian polo player. Sarah's elder sister ran off with an Australian rancher at the age of 16. (pp. 27-29)
Someone who knew Andrew as a child said he wad already "a tiresome little shit," who regularly reminded everyone that he was a prince. (p.23)

What's one difference between the US and China? You can teach Plato in China.
I applied for a position in the Trump administration. This is my headshot.
People were sucking up to Trump so much, he had to take 4 naps during his cabinet meeting
It feels so on the nose that Stephen Miller is such an obviously creepy loser and he also has this politics. The least subtle morality play about racists basically entirely accurately characterises the sorta people they are.

Nero fiddled while Rome burned.
Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?
TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.
Donald Trump: “smart people don’t like me”
Thank you for your kind words!
Bryan, I enjoyed today’s substack video post “The Rest Understand the West Better...
...than the West Understands the Rest.” I wish I had taken more Philosophy at Vassar than the one class I had with Jesse Kalin.
