That's great, I suppose, but these are two people I wouldn't trust to sharpen my pencils.

If so, what was the would-be assassin thinking when he signed up to stage it? They killed him you know. He should have expected that.

I don't at all like @wordpress.org shoving AI down my throat. I know a lot of users willthink that's great but as a creator and a human being I find it exploitative, intrusive, antisocial and an expensive waste of resources.

We see elections turning the fascist tide in Hungary, South Korea, and New York City. Where is a presidential candidate who can do that for America? I suspect it isn't Kamala.

After all, Magyar is their word for Hungarian.

Have you checked out Scrivener for writing your novel? It's not free but cheap enough. I've written two using it.

Clearly, losing Hungary was Biden's fault.

Qnd if hundreds of thousands of demonstrators turned out, that's over 10% of greater Budapest. By contrast, No Kings 3 drew about 2% of Americans into the streets.

Kevin Roberts, I think. Vought had a big hand in it.

Add to them Erdoğan.

Artemis Descent, splashdown, and pre-recovery. Yay!

Very unlikely

Oh wow. I didn't know about that library. Thanks.

I like starting with a three-vowel word. Today, none of the vowels were correct but I still did well.

Get yourself a set of rabbit ears. Just like radio but with pictures.
