The manic behavior, bro personality, incompetence, and alcoholism are one thing. This is genuinely scary: www.idahopress.com/news/local/h...

In the old days, I'd have to leave reprints in telephone booths and bus stations to get people to take them. Here is the virtual version of that: www.jvolcanica.org/ojs/index.ph...

My @nytimes.com subscription just expired. Haven't really read anything but the arts for months, because of their normalization of the tyranny of the federal government, extra charge for sports, and the jokers on the opinion page. Is there a decent source of news and opinion out there?
I'm looking for the perfect illustration of a mantle plume for a book I'm working on. Started with a web search and couldn't find exactly what I wanted. So I gave Chatgpt a go. Wow.
Hey look over there and my latest crazy shit! I'd hate to distract you from the fact that I hung out with another rich dude who raped young girls.
So where is your book about the disfunctionality of this administration, Jake? The mental acuity of the Commander in Chief? The covering up by the world-class sycophant tribe that surrounds this deranged soul?
Is this incredibly stupid headline written by artificial stupidity or a real-life stupid person?

As an alternative, these snowflakes could display a modicum of courage.
Had to read it twice...

The key is setting oneself apart from the crowd. At a liberal arts school with every opportunity, perhaps this is a pub. As would simply doing well earning a BS if one had to work their way through college at a public university.
I believe but do not know that the PhD direct is overrepresented by students from the wealthiest liberal arts schools. Good for us. But every good PhD student I had (and I could not be prouder) and many of my role models did an M.S. first, because they were unsure on how they wanted to focus.
I think more important: it excludes folks who are completing an M.S. and contemplating a Ph.D. In my generation (the mentors of many millenials), that was the majority, especially for people who did not initially have a strong academic bent.
Great quote by @pkrugman.bsky.social today:
"there is no reward for appeasing MAGA with performative displays of cowardice."
Little known fact: Epstein provided his clients with Tylenol. As Deep Throat said: follow the over-the-counter medications.
I'm confused: Tylenol causes fascism, or is it that acetaminophen results from abuse of fake spray tans? It's hard to follow facts when they just make this stuff up.
Now I'm going to have to decrease my watching of abc and cbs from zero to negative but not sure how to do that.
Funny what cowards these jerks are when confronted. We all had classmates like them in grade school.
It took me 40 years to realize that sarcasm is not an effective pedagogy.
At what point will the resilience of the U.S. economy be overcome by these incompetent charlatans?
Ignore that I hung out with a dude who raped girls and look over there.
Cordierite?
A shout out to Anchorage! You showed up strong a beautiful reminder that support for Ukraine spans every corner of the world. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
That press conference reminded me of when I was in the sixth grade and gave a book report on a book I hadn't read.
It is time, people, to protect our forces with sandwich-proof body armor.
