Nathan S drew a picture of me working at Starbucks today! He gave me the drawing. I had him sign it and pose with it. He totally made my week!
I feel like the left only likes felons when they get to be the savior of felons and not when felons actually have any power or agency.
I wonder when Donald Trump will finally take people up on calling him King and just ignore any judgment that doesn’t come directly from the Supreme Court and keep doing whatever he wants. thehill.com/homenews/…
It took me until now to really accept High Potential in replacement or in addition to HPI/HIP. But it’s locked in. All the characters are awesome. The relationships are good. And this Morgan is a lot more introspective and less defiant than the French. But it works.

I guess nearly half of America is fringe.
Half of U.S. adults say people born in the United States to parents who immigrated illegally should have U.S. citizenship. Another 49% say they should not, according to a Pew www.theatlantic.com/ideas/202…
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 26,14-25
14 One of the Twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests 15 and said, “What are you willing to give me if I hand him over to you?” They paid him thirty pieces of silver, 16 and from that time on he looked for an opportunity to hand him over. 17 On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples approached Jesus and said, “Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?” 18 He said, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The teacher says, “My appointed time draws near; in your house I shall celebrate the Passover with my disciples."'” 19 The disciples then did as Jesus had ordered, and prepared the Passover. 20 When it was evening, he reclined at table with the Twelve. 21 And while they were eating, he said, “Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me.” 22 Deeply distressed at this, they began to say to him one after another, “Surely it is not I, Lord?” 23 He said in reply, “He who has dipped his hand into the dish with me is the one who will betray me. 24 The Son of Man indeed goes, as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed. It would be better for that man if he had never been born.” 25 Then Judas, his betrayer, said in reply, “Surely it is not I, Rabbi?” He answered, “You have said so.”
What an episode. What a great show.

Wealth isn’t rooted. States tax as if it is. In a mobile economy, high earners and capital can leave, taking future revenue with them. The tension isn’t moral—it’s structural: how do you fund the system without driving away the very base you depend on?
This is such a perfect boonie: soft, floppy, comfortable, unstructured, uniquely Flecktarn. Great sun protection and you can use it as a sweat towel and then it dries quickly. Mop your forehead, wear it, stuff it, let it sit and dry, repeat.
I love this so much! Considering that MAGA is a coalition of leftist populists and right-wing populists, I’m pretty sure there are people like this, in fact: Pinkos for Trump.
If one country out of roughly 195 can change course and the result is mass panic, then the real scandal is the dependency. There are 194 other countries in the world, including many rich ones. Why was life-or-death built around one taxpayer-funded spigot with no serious Plan B?
If NGOs, governments, and aid networks knew Trump-style politics could return, why was there no Plan B? USAID was never magic. It was U.S. taxpayer money. If one election can trigger collapse, the deeper scandal is that so much of the system was built with no redundancy at all.
One of my favorite girlfriends calls me her ex-husband. She is from San Francisco. This is 1998 era. She refused to say “go straight” in the context of directions and insisted we always use “go forward.” I loved that about her. These conversations have been going on for decades.
