Thanks French. Also reminds me of the story about shirts made for a Papal visit that celebrated "La Papa"

Ascribing intentionality to Trump is like saying a rutabaga "wants" to grow towards sunlight. Trump's choices are probably as much a surprise to himself as they are to everyone else. Dementia can do that
Is there any evidence that moving offices away from a seat of government DOES give greater control? I'd be interested to learn about decentralizing as a push for professionalism in government
I feel bad for Nick Fury and wonder what his next job is in this screwed up game of musical chairs
I'd suggest listening to The Unbelievable Truth from BBC 4. It's great to relax/work to
Nope, lie-curt all the way. Kind of how Mt. Everest and the explorers name are pronounced differently
Gov Shapiro needs to make sure the local police chief (who instigated this conflict it looks like) knows that if these students aren't released to their parents tonight they will be receiving a full pardon immediately.
case of Gresham's law, "good money driving out bad."
When idiots think they understand economics. The 'market clearing price' only makes sense when you're talking about substitutable goods. In this case, not all NCOs are equally valuable to the military, and those who are more valuable will have more valuable alternatives. Outcome would be classic...
I lived in France and my wife has a law degree from there, and aside from not liking Marine Le Pen I don't have any firm opinions either
I was watching TSN for Olympic hockey, and the preview for the US-Canada game had McDavid talking about how the emotions are so intense for this game, then had a clip of Trump calling Canada the 51st state
Is there any evidence for why this holds? Is it that these schools are much more stressful or that they have newer teachers
So lifetime speaking gigs and sinecures for all involved...
Really enjoyed this video and hoping to apply some of the lessons from it at my own place. Would love to see a video about renewable alternative to a stand by generator for when the power goes out for almost a week in the dead of winter. Is it installed solar and batteries? Or more grid reliant alt?
This is an interesting article but I think some of the changes in human physiology you note are the result of behavioral rather than genetic changes over the last 600 year. Eg. it is known that the drastic decrease in chewing (due to processed foods) is a primary contributor to smaller jaw size.
Sometimes I feel like a git when I can't find something and have to call my wife at work. But at least I haven't done this
Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf mustβve thought before he died by suicide: βHe might have thought βhow is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over thisβ maybe he said βthis site was not subject to local zoning.ββ
They make the protein powder with colostrum? That's screwed up
Academic article "Acting "As If": Symbolic Politics and Social Control in Syria" describes army officers being forced to describe fantastical tales that are obviously not true to show fealty to the Hafez al-Assad regime.
An obviously not true story is relayed by MAGA acolyte Nick Adams where he describes fictional young women gushing over the documentary about First Lady Melania Trump with such believable phases from 2025 as "Slay queen." He establishes that he is a real man and was not working out with them by emphasizing he was going out for a "hot black coffee." This fantastically tale is said to show his fealty to Trump.
How it started. How it's going.
Noem has found a new way to incentivize a bureaucracy, "keep working or you have to watch me shoot my fucking dog to death."

Good job to Chief O'Hara from Minneapolis. Local and state police need to be the guardians of rights when the federal government undermines them

Since at least 1939, Americans, from the President down to Privates, have earned the presumption of truthfulness and honesty. Trump has destroyed this in only a year. We are going to need to do a lot of work to re-earn that trust
The Supreme Court has given up even the pretense of calling balls and strikes on the law. They are trying to function as an unaccountable policy making institution based on their preferred outcomes, which invariably end up being those of big business

The minor electrical issue is with his brain. But seriously, his brain isn't working and he is not fit to be president
ICE has already been caught lying that a person they shot was trying to run them over when the car was stopped or was moving in the other direction. It was in Brighton Park, Chicago. ICE tried to sell the lie by charging the driver with a crime, but it was such a lie it didn't even make it to court.
Minnesota State Patrol needs to identify, arrest, and preserve evidence of this horrendous killing. This is essential in a country governed by laws
Best ending ever is Blackadder, from the last series Blackadder Goes Forth
