@sethharpesq One possible excuse is that’s who the author is. If he was better or wiser he wouldn’t have had those experiences to write about.

@moonandmouth If mid century America had been pagan instead of Great, Don Draper would have been killed in the cradle. (Nice piece!)

@KUTnathan "is expected to remain until the bridge is rebuilt" -- I guess this means they don't plan to fully close boat traffic under 35 at any point in the process?

@NateSilver538 It was shorthand for “he’s prepared this time and has a whole apparatus ready to step in and do shocking stuff day one that he only talked about in his first term.” That was no conspiracy, didn’t need to be proven but a document helped people envision it.

After mocking the holy leader and declaring himself pope last year, Trump now launches insults as the Pope advocates for peace in Iran. Pope Leo continues to show the moral clarity and courage Congressional GOP lack.

The Pope’s important message to a deranged Trump: “Too many people are suffering in the world today. Too many innocent people are being killed. And I think someone has to stand up and say there’s a better way.”

@simonowens My X just gives me the latest tweets from all accounts I follow in chronological order, does yours not work this way? There’s also a spam folder on the left for Nazi stuff.

@annbauerwriter @dee_of_e It’s pretty easy to deduce what the original climax was (certain words used while freestyle rapping at high school parties) and why it was so hard to follow through in the period when he wrote it

@VinceMancini sounds fake tho
