Ah, now that does start to ring a bell. Thank you.

Thanks. That's the sense I got. I'll follow her again, I guess. (or maybe not)

I'm curious what people think of the author, Taylor Lorenz? I noticed I have her blocked on some social media and couldn't remember why. I searched a little and found she had referred to Biden as a war criminal on WaPo, just prior to the election. Probably when I started blocking everything I didn't think was generative in terms of news. I still think it's a shit-take but am wondering if I'm just being thin-skinned? Is she a decent writer? Should we be following her? This is definitely an important story to follow. Anyhow, I have moved onto getting my stories from rss readers and some social media, no paid subscriptions to legacy MSM. So, scrutinizing individual writers becomes more critical.

If there were a phonetic phrase book like this, I might begin to learn their exotic language.

Was just re-reading how Manafort installed Putin's stooge before Zelensky. Trump seemed to have thought that's who he could just call up and get to do his bidding. I'm saying he probably thought he was calling Yanukovych even though Manafort was his own stooge. I mean, that's moronic and all but, it tracks, considering what we know now.

We've been throwing the word expert around way too casually.

I went down the street to the 24-hour grocery. When I got there, the guy was locking the front door. I said, 'Hey, the sign says you're open 24 hours.' He said, 'Yes, but not in a row.'

*Lie

It's not a claim. It's a lie. Come on media, you can do this.
