1 + 1 = 2.....

We once again remind the president that American Jews don't need to be "loyal" to a candidate or party to be both American and Jewish and it's unconscionable to say they should be "ashamed" or cast out for failing to do so.

#lawsky My jurisprudential philosophy? "Have a good time, all the time. That's my philosophy, Marty."

“You get a new angle on a figure when it precedes you down stairs; she had nice shoulders” Like Archie Goodwin, I’m an admirer of shoulders

#cricket India’s bowling seems to have smothered them at this point: only 2 wickets taken but almost no run production for ZIM

#cricket the Zimbabwe women are making a match of it against India this morning - target is 329 and they’re at 103-1. A big run total for India but they need some wickets…

#writing got a rejection email that says “At this time, the editors at [Review] have chosen not to publish your poem…” Am so tempted to reply “Dear editors - please let me know at what time you will choose to publish X as your email as your email implies…”

"DeWine calls Ramaswamy attack ad 'deeply, deeply troubling' but stands by endorsement" the endless cowardice

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

The Imagist stuff can get a little OTT, but this one is lovely and I admire and am inspired by WCW who was a physician and wrote on the side (see also Wallace Stevens)

New Issue, who dis?

Yes, it does. Alas.

here's a suggestion: don't

Not sure the office IT guy got the reference - he fixed my situation and I said

not how I.....

gorgeous and true

I disavow the Brothers Karamazov.

"'Saturday Night Live' star Michael Che brushes off Shane Gillis' controversy: 'That's comedy'" What a bunch of hacks. That show hasn;t been funny in 30 years.

This dude must be super important, for all this gatekeeping: "My name is [Bill], and I work closely with Frank at [XYZ Financial}. I’m reaching out on his behalf to see if you’d have some time to connect. If so, Joanna (cc’d) would be happy to find a time..."

Time to start a re-read of Strangers and Brothers I think #CPSnow

what utter and complete bullshit

what fucking bullshit

#writing "We appreciate poetry that risks the poet’s soul." My SOUL?? I was just thinking about flowers....?

what a nightmare that would be

To the african american gentleman dressed all in black with a black backpack who got off a Glenmont bound red line train at metro center at 6.10, you left your ipods case - it is with the judiciary square metro attendant.

Wait, there’s another controversial S Sweeney ad? SO BRAVE.

every day, in every way, I am so pleased and proud that neither of my sons wanted anything to do with "Greek life" at their respective colleges

Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

imagine naming your child "Battle".

When my parents bought these shoes for me before I started law school I was vaguely embarrassed at what seemed like their extravance. The shoes are older than most of you at this point.

Out here doing the Lord’s work (tagging every ad on LinkedIn as “Seems like AI slop”)

i know i haven't been a perfect parent, but at least I didn't post announcements of my children's births on LinkedIn

What an innings for Georgia! #cricket

I mean, SOME of the problem is definitely his politics. If a billionaire was throwing tons of money at trying to strengthen Social Security benefits, provide universal free school lunch, and reduce administrative burdens and stigma for public benefits, that could be cool, actually.

I cannot bawl very heartily and work very recklessly at one and the same time.

Here's Google's CEO (or whatever he is) arranging a ride for Brooks through Jeffrey Epstein

Ruin a book by adding a word: Death Metal Comes for the Archbishop

I just saw what I suppose is the TV commercial featuring that Sweeney person and various items of sports equipment. How puerile, and how embarrassing for her to be party to it.
