What’s your issue with him?
The Wordle Bot thinks I am a complete idiot. I may have to rethink my life.

Happy International Women's Day!
Well, at least the Wordle Bot didn't get it today, either.
No judgement here. Turns out I might be a wild chimp. Would explain a few things.
There's a problem of perception here. Crockett is a grandstander, but not more so than Adam Schiff, Sheldon Whitehouse, Elizabeth Warren, Dick Durbin, Brian Schatz, Chris Murphy etc. She threatens something at the core of the republic that seriously needs questioning, which is… I'll let you fill in
GOP thinks they can win against her over Talarico. The message: retreat to the white man for safety because only HE can save the day. Sideline the Black female voice because she can't win in America. Just when do we call bullshit on that? Now strikes me as a good time.
War with Iran. This is a quagmire only a FIFA Peace Prize winner could embroil us in.
Kara Walker is one of my favorite contemporary artists. This work, like all her work, is powerful, disturbing and tells a truth so uncomfortable you can't help but cry and say thank you.

SOTU? I prefer STFU.
Wonderfully considered article. I'm curious why you didn't also mention Musk, Bannon and others throwing what some try to call the "Roman salute" early in this term. To my thinking those gestures were even less ambiguous than Bovino's coat. Not criticizing, just curious why that didn't make the cut.

That scene from Spartacus, but where everyone steps forward and says, "I am Dunning-Kruger!"
Basically, putting a pharaohic can of whoop-ass and Scottish temper behind the revenge of exploited girls as they demolish the false Lincoln idol who somehow took over the universe.
And while "formally" above was, in fact, a typo, the name wasn't changed by an act of Congress, so the typo stands.
Maybe the theater formally known as The Kennedy Center?
Or, hear me out, JonBenét Wilkes Booth Gordon Ramesses II. Coming to a theater near you!
Or JonBené Wilkes Booth Gordon Ramsay?
New menu item just dropped at Denny's: Kashbrowns. The unreleased shredded Epstein files deep fried and served with a deviled egg.
I would love to hear the sound of that frown overcoming the tensile strength of her lips and see the comic projectile deflation of her flying across the room as that pressure releases.
It's amazing to me that even needs to be said, but Democrats are so great at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory that spelling it out is not only prudent, but essential.
I’m not sure how we go to the place of both-sidesing stupidity, but this version of reality is being directed by Wes Anderson’s methed out cousin, so here we are.
I like how in English we say 'fix a drink' as if the fact of one being not yet made is the broken state.
Hey all! I've been scarce around these parts of late. Don't give up on me. Just going through a fallow period.
EAT YOUR VEGETABLES!
Imagine if they joined forces with the Vindemans, the Olsens and Patty Duke!
Or a leadership role. An ornamental position, purely decorative. Like telling your maître d it's your birthday and getting a little scoop of ice cream on a big plate.
