You objectively have more leisure time then a subsistence farmer. Obviously.

I finished Memoirs From Beyond The Tomb, by Francois-Rene de Chateaubriand. An arch-conservative and the father of French Romanticism, the man was that rare breed of politician, writer, and adventurer that only the nineteenth century produced He was a bad person - but what a life.

I obviously am on the side of the judge in this one, but this is much more likely to get slapped down by an appeals court then just plainly writing "motion of petitioner XYZ is granted."

objectively great way to start your book

The Second Amendment is meaningless if the government can legally kill you for exercising it, says Cato’s Matthew Cavedon. Only restraints on the use of force can stop officials from turning the Second Amendment into an excuse to kill civilians.

new york magazine has a very nasty article out about my beautiful golden throne, which they say is the only thing keeping me alive. when I'm sitting on my big beautiful throne I am NOT ASLEEP!! I am directing the beacon of the astronomican, something sleepy joe did very badly may I add

I'd like to think that we can have a world where people can be mean to, say, the droid army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and not to real people. That's the big goal I aim for.

I'll say it. I support US Involvement in Regime Change in Germany, Italy and Japan between 1941 and 1945.

Excited to die in a pointless war over if the Elector of the DMV has the ability to appoint the Bishop of Harper's Ferry.

Between 1890 and 1901 the Empress of Austria-Hungary, the Prime Minister of Spain, the President of France, the King of Italy, and the President of the United States were all assassinated by anarchists.

If you're surprised that Rand Paul is reflexively against the use of military arms you're not paying attention. He was against supporting the Ukrainians and the Israelis for the same reasons; he was and is an isolationist.

Great column, great book. Great reviewers, too.

The Showa comparisons are honestly applicable given that "the Army has fallen from the favor of the emperor, it is now the Navy's time in the limelight" is a headline

Heartbreaking. The worst person you know . . . www.nytimes.com/2025/08/06/m...

In Sept. 2008, Randy Johnson and Greg Maddux were slotted to pitch the third game of a three-game series between the Diamondbacks and Dodgers. Both got scratched. Their replacements? Two unknown rookies named Max Scherzer and Clayton Kershaw. http://dlvr.it/TMLFHM

maybe everything will work out

Why would he possibly complain about this haha

1/30 – MIGUEL BATISTA RHP, 2010 Journeyman was long reliever during lone year in DC, famously made 1 start after Stephen Strasburg scratched. Joked fans wanted “Miss Universe” but got “Miss Iowa.” Real Miss Iowa, Katherine Conners, threw out first pitch at Nats Park 3 days later.

'Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want and deserve to get it good and hard.'

Wild that the Cubans were responsible for hundreds of terrorist attacks in America in the seventies. Say this about Castro, guy sure was ballsy.

Nosferatu was great. Love checking in on my good friend Count Dracula.

I *guarantee* you with a 6-man bullpen, you'll see guys go past 100 pitches. There's really no other choice, because you back yourself into a corner within 2 games, basically. They don't let guys go deep now because they always have a rested arm to go to. Guys barely go back-to-back in-season now!

(wait for it…) It could be the most anticipated 90 seconds this CFB season, from the moment the trophy lever is pushed down to when the pastries pop up, sans the sound effects. Yes, the Pop-Tarts Bowl trophy is a working toaster. Details on the trophy: www.nytimes.com/athletic/599...

I celebrate our nation's rich tapestry but the fact we all live within 5 minutes of a Steelers bar is an indictment of the American Experiment

Washington being good still seems vaguely fake to me. I don’t believe it.

The Washington Nationals are one of the most successful farm teams in baseball history.
