I know people find this site pedantic and perhaps even jejune. Populated by people who use the basically the same word twice. But tonight @jamellebouie.net quoted @grudgie.bsky.social so hey. Life could be worse.

It’s not a bad point. When was the last time a popular tv show demonstrated a cop getting it wrong? Giving up? Abusing? Being a human? (Okay, okay the wire was 20+ years ago)

I’m not trying to pile on here but we the public have understood that deploying active duty troops on US soil is a bad thing and illegal. So maybe someone with expertise could enlighten us as opposed to playing credential swinger.

Okay, okay, I’ll admit it, It was my podcast called “Jake Tapper could have had a kid with Monica but he bailed on the second date” I regret deeply making fun of a 15 year who wants to be a cop.

If you like the horrific slop known as "oatmeal" that's your business but keep it to yourself. Don't barge into my replies to defend it. Don't tell me about the 50 ingredients I need to add to make it edible. Do not tell me that cooking cardboard is a "skill issue"

As others have suggested would/could China mediate a pullback? If so would that further elevate China as a global peace-maker as the US retreats from its historic position?

In your studies does the lack of economic upside also extend to music festivals? CA Gov released some pretty eye popping fiscal impacts around Coachella and I was dubious. Granted there is far less public investment so maybe the upside is there but exaggerated?

For what it’s worth I subscribe to the idea that a book list should always be more than what you can read. Imagine the horror of waking up and realizing you’ve read everything.
