I am politely asking you to purchase my book. I can assure you, with no exaggeration, it is the best debut novel I have ever written. Thank you. #HistFic #SilentService #WW2 a.co/d/evstynr

@exjon @walterkirn Beat me to the punch. BTW - in Tucson this week and thankful for your recommendation of Tania’s 66 many years ago. Will stop for lunch before we leave… Also recently finished my second round of chemo and know that you’re running the same race. Hope you are doing well!

One of the puzzles I find myself mulling over -- too often -- is the question of why artistic genius springs up in geographic clusters rather than in some broad, roughly predictable way. So many great musical talents from Seattle all at once? Whatever may be behind this phenomenon, it doesn't seem to operate with AIs, whose outputs don't arrive in this irregular, qualitatively "lumpy" fashion.

@exjon The good news is, you have a great excuse to never do hot yoga. Tried to love it for 3 years and I just cannot. You know who loves yoga? Naturally flexible people who lack the discipline to actually exercise. I said what I said.

Finally had my last stitches removed and I'm finally out of the full-arm brace after 3 months (still wear a wrist brace until my radial nerve recovers). Alas, I fear my plans for a professional parkour career are at an end.

@RexFermier Very annoying it's my dominant right arm struggling with all the nonsense. Can't wait 'til I can type two-handed again.

@exjon How about bowling?

@docMJP Calmness is the main thing lacking. The histrionics from so many are embarrassing. Read your Epictetus, people.

Trump could be playing the good cop, bad cop routine, yes. He’s good at that.
But don’t gaslight Americans who take him seriously when he seems to be publicly indicating a difference in aims between us and our ally in the middle of a conflict against our enemy.
Engage calmly.
Matthew J. Peterson@docMJP
I don’t think I’m a “the Jooos” guy. I don’t think the President is, either. But I am a realist. When America engages against an enemy with another nation, questions about alignment on the mission are valid. Especially when we see stuff like this happening in public and huge sources of global energy are being blown up and a lot more is at stake.

I paid 10k to Handsome Boy Modeling Agency, they took a few head shots, and I appeared as “Disgruntled Customer 3” in a regional ED ad. They’re legit.

@stevenfhayward @charlesmurray He predicted it all decades ahead of time.

@charlesmurray I prefer 'The Possessed' (sometimes 'The Devils') above all.

Dostoyevsky is for reading in college, so can talk about the Grand Inquisitor into the wee hours. Tolstoy is the good stuff. I learned this from my college girlfriend’s father, who was Harvard’s famous Russian lit professor. Later, I discovered he was (surprise!) right.

The Brothers Karamazov or Crime and Punishment, which is the better read?

Today @realDonaldTrump waived the "Jones Act” because the war increased the price of oil.
The Jones Act raises all sorts of prices by giving U.S. shipping companies special treatment.
But it shouldn’t be waived for 60 days.
Here’s why it should be killed for good.

If they didn’t reenlist, the skipper would leave them there.

Must have been the exotic port of call that convinced them to reenlist. COMSUBPAC administering the oath of enlistment for sailors from Los Angeles-class submarine USS Santa Fe (SSN 763) this week at Ice Camp Boarfish

No one understands the tax code -- not politicians, not the IRS ... even AI can't figure it out. There has to be a better way.
Kite & Key Media@kiteandkeymedia
Almost nobody understands how American taxes actually work. Even the IRS admits it doesn't know how long the tax code is. And that confusion isn't just annoying — it's the single best weapon politicians have to mislead you. Our new video separates fact from fiction.

@BridgetPhetasy I was offered a similar deal but turned it down. Gambling apps skeeve me out.

This is nuts and I am obviously very bad at capitalism.

Check out this screen grab, it’s just a glimpse of who’s getting paid by way of “paid partnerships” by Polymarket. Why I was screaming, everyone is getting paid. Everyone sold out to the gambling sites ruining our youth. What a shame. Also makes for terrible discord.
