We have a jester-cum-emperor.

It’s too bad we don’t have a king. :) No system is perfect. We for example can’t understand votes of no confidence or random calls for elections at irregular intervals. I have always liked the six year idea for the Presidency and House terms of four instead of two, for the record. In fact the...

I’m American mate — we make them high-ranking government officials over here. All I can say is that if in a small way we can stand up for what and Who is right this time, I’ll feel just a little better about the state of the world after the tragedy of 10 days ago . . . Besides, you’re gonna...

Only about 500,000 :)

I’d vote against that. But this is a time when I’m glad I live there.

Sigh. Pretty much sums it all up.

Over here they’re The Charlatans UK and while I’ve heard bits and pieces and flat-out love The Only One I Know, this is will be my first go at a whole album. So far they sound like Oasis if @RobMCFC had produced them :). Just kidding — the joke just writes itself; too easy to pass up after so...

I was talking to my company’s DC strategist yesterday and he said the one governor on Trump is the stock market. He said Trump pays far and away more attention to the equity markets than any other President before him. Thus while none of the house, senate, likely cabinet, many courts nor...

Trump vs Harris with scores of Cult fans screaming, “Lock him up!” about Pete Townsend?

Too late now, idiots.

I suspect the domestic villain this time around will be Jerome Powell, chair of the Fed. I foresee “lock him up” rallies as he attempts to control monetary policy in the face of an unfettered President whose popular planks are almost entirely inflationary. Powell will become the new Fauci.

Epic battle down to the wire!

I had the same thing happen after blocking hundreds of bots and trolls — and I mean hundreds. Wasn’t an awful experience. But I’m off because of the owner now and won’t return. It seems now after a search that many of my small number of favo(u)rite accounts have posts on Bluesky. Good enough for me.

May I +1 on this? Just finding out via LinkedIn that a lot of folks I read for business and non-City insight have departed X in the last week so I am ready to join up unless there are compelling reasons not to. Never going back to X.

Very good! Personally re your opening post, I’d plump for the opening scene of that film. “You brought two too many.”

Dax should be a huge supporter of Governor Newsom. The California Food Safety Act is the first law in the U.S. to ban brominated vegetable oil, potassium bromate, propyl paraben and Red Dye No. 3. He would love California. No HHS Secretary should be anti-vax. Immediately disqualifying. There...

Ha — indeed he could. Grace Kelly was so beautiful she was scarcely believable. Here EMS is just the exact right combination of beautiful and playful. It also doesn’t hurt having the unflappable Cary Grant actually completely put off his gait here — great acting. Absolutely love this film. My...

There will never be a better woman-picks-up-man scene ever filmed — and hasn’t been for 65 years.

I won’t say I’ve never been more attracted to an actress in any scene than Eva Marie-Saint in this one . . . but it’s in the top 1.

I already told you — Alex Jones.
