@jerrymichalski I see your point... So not saying "no, you are the ones who do that" (which is happening) but rather fabricating motivations and goals outright, up front. Flamethrowing seems good for that. Like starting a flame war.

[Chris McCarthy @chrismccarthy]

@jerrymichalski I like flamethrowing as it sounds like a weapon, but for me it doesn't fully capture that reflective nature of throwing the accusation back at the accuser.

@jerrymichalski Jerry, thinking about this since you posed the question of what to call it, and I'd like to propose: RubberGlueism. It's from the children's riposte "I'm rubber, you're glue, what you say to me bounces off and sticks to you"

Does @GoDaddy's Marketing #AI know more about my feelings on #Asia than I do? I'm a good listener and certainly more polite than the suggestion.

@jerrymichalski That's a long mile -- er, 1.6 kilometers -- to walk.

Everybody talks about #China in #SEAsia, but let's not forget about #Japan. "Japan is also working to boost economic security ties with Southeast Asia as a whole, which it sees as key in its push for a "free and open Indo-Pacific." https://t.co/osq5SKCfoR #Vietnam #China

I know my philologist friends await the AP Style guide notes on COVID-19, such as "lock down" (verb) versus "lockdown" (noun, adj.), and front line (n.) vs front-line (adj.) -- so they made a special usage page: https://t.co/BBO1FVstWv

It’s going to hurt!!!

A thread on impact of COVID-19 (& EBA) on the #Cambodia economy.

The good news - long term fundamentals of the Cambodian economy are strong, & will benefit longer term from manufacturers looking to diversify their manufacturing base & supply chains. 1/
