Home Alone makes changes to the Die Hard formula that render it hard for me to enjoy. The McClain character should feel overawed. And in theory having Kevin be a child versus adults achieves that. But the thing is: Kevin is a god. It's not just Tom & Jerry. This is some random punks versus Anansi.

Yeah, so DeepSeek can't say that China is an authoritarian state, can't answer anything about the tiannamen square massacre, and can't explain why China is not on the top of democracy and freedom lists. So, that's not good. My takeaway--just like cheap routers, DeepSeek has someone listening in!

A nation gave thanks to God as it mourned the Union dead and prayed for the defeat of the Confederacy by either changing rebel minds or bringing them to submission.
