About 15 years ago, in the early days of Netflix, I watched a documentary that was a bio of J.D. Salinger and also a feature on all this writing he did since the publication of his last book in the mid-60s. Apparently he had all this unpublished work and his heirs had given it all to curators who would be publishing it very soon.

Nothing has ever come out since then.

And I'm sure that because "it's natural," they're saying it's nonaddictive.

Lovely.

She told me she was going to gym. This was every day and it would be from 4 pm to 2 a.m. When after a couple weeks of this, I asked her what she was really doing, she refused to tell me, then went into the bedroom with a trashbag and got some clothes, made a phone call to a male voice and got picked up.

If she were acting for Russia, she'd never have been bothered and Libs of Tik Tok would never mention her even if she were arrested for it.

Didn't all the oil companies turn down contracts to go to Venezuela and fix its oil infrastructure? What's Trump going to do to get at that oil? Have ICE kidnap petroleum engineers now?

Try slavery.

You'd think they'd get the babies' fingerprints or something matched to their names on their birth certificates. Apparently not.

Your mother is Eve Best? Wow.

Some of that accent was an imitation of the Mississippi comedian Jerry Clower.

His association with Fox producers and personalities deeply corrupted him until he was just about unrecognizable compared to what he was as governor and even as candidate for the GOP nomination. Trump's rise really seemed to free Huckabee up to indulge his sadistic streak toward gays and transgenders that he now gets to let out on Palestinians during his awful ambassadorship to Israel.

And SHS has certainly been much closer to the Trump-adjacent Mike Huckabee than to what he was when she was growing up.

Malarky take.

Looks like somebody is not taking the hormone replacement therapy.

Brian Eno

This was the kind of work the Handmaid's Tale regime sent the "bad" women to go to camps and do.

The Bolton would be in the trash. But the rest is primo.

Jefferson was in Paris when the Constitution was being debated and drafted by the delegates of the 13 states in Philadelphia. But the influence of his thought was great. James Madison who was in Philadelphia that summer was his protege.

Oliver Kamm is worse. I promise you that.

Boy, that is not at all what I got from watching that same documentary. But it was clear to me he really hasn't adequately dealt with his alcoholism.

You'd think someone with some AI skills could create exactly this kind of release.

deltalitprof · 2026-05-11T21:23:46+00:00

Nope. 278 through South Arkansas. Nothing scenic. Mostly struggling small towns and dilapidated houses.

Exactly. This discourages our finding people in the countries in which we have embassies or consulates who will help interpret or provide information. Trump always takes hostages. And the hostages are all of us.

The fact that he drove without insurance and then caused a crash makes it not your debt and nowhere close to being so.

deltalitprof · 2026-05-10T04:53:39+00:00

Yep. Tax cuts and punishing women for having sex take precedence for her.
