@walterkirn "Accused gunman" and "D.C. attack" - I'd say shame on LA Times, but that threshold was crossed many, many years ago...only surprised they didn't say "dustup".

The people trying to do away with Trump will categorically reject political violence only once they're successful.

@walterkirn I was bought into your compelling startup idea until you introduced direct eye contact with other passengers. It was like "check, check, check", then "nope, too Soviet".

What about a discount airline that requires you to wear a standard airline-issued jumpsuit & tote a standard airline-issued carry-on & sit in longitudinal rows of seats that all face one another across the aisle. Like a very smooth, controlled troop transport or prison ship.

Can I have one free shot at the craziest unfounded theory of the week? Ok, here goes: The almost inexplicable gathering of all the major administration figures from the president on down at the WHCD was a security version of a honeypot operation. The unprecedented roster of targets presented an irresistible temptation for hostile interests and was meant to smoke out disloyalty and corruption in the inner circle and the guardian class. And it may have worked. Insane novelist thinking, I know.

@BrianRo88242805 @KathleenWinche3 He arrived like a cat 5 hurricane out of left field. I watch clips of him now and it hammers home that no one could follow that intense energy level.

I love being on his show because my pal @greggutfeld is the hardest working man in show business. For his size. Meanwhile my old friend @PlanetTyrus is the hardest working man in show business, period. And the strongest lifter, too. Guess which one I fear?

@For_Film_Fans Hall was steady Eddie in a long list of exceptional films. He elevated whatever he appeared in - including this astonishingly great Seinfeld episode, tying 60's counterculture to the demise of lending library etiquette and protocol.

Regarded by many as one of the best written, best acted scenes in Sitcom history. PHILIP BAKER HALL delivers an all-time performance as ‘Lt. Bookman’ —The Library Cop, a role that changed this hugely talented Actor’s life & career forever.

@GadSaad Gad, thank you for raising the issue of risk calculation in this post. It's unfortunately the first thought I had in reading of this tragic incident. Broadly, and sadly, eyes-up situational awareness is essential nearly everywhere today.

Suicidal empathy construes a Unicornia view of the world as you'd like it to be rather than how it actually is. I discuss the inability to calculate risk as a fundamental feature of Civilizational Seppuku (a term that I coin in the forthcoming book).

Remember Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, the 24-year-old Danish woman, and Maren Ueland, the 28-year-old Norwegian. While on vacation in Morocco, they were camping one night when four Muslims attacked them. They were kidnapped and raped. What happened next was filmed by the Islamists themselves in a video — pure horror and hatred. ⚠️ [Sensitive content — if you’re easily upset, stop reading now] ⚠️ It’s night. The two girls are outdoors, their bodies lit only by the glow of mobile phones. Louisa is lying face down, pants pulled down. Two Moroccans stand over her, speaking Arabic. One of them starts slicing her throat from the back of the neck. She cries, calling out “MOOOR”, Danish for “Mom”, desperately calling for her mother. He doesn’t stop. He keeps cutting until she loses consciousness, then fully decapitates her and throws her head to the ground. One of them spits on it. The next morning a shepherd found both bodies, decapitated. Louisa and Maren were tortured, raped, and murdered for a single “crime”: being white Europeans. The killers are currently serving 20-year sentences in a Moroccan prison. For these two innocent souls, there was barely any outrage, just a brief news story that quickly disappeared from the headlines. Their suffering was allowed to fade in silence, because they were killed by North Africans.

Would have worn nicer shoes if I knew this was going to happen today: just became the 1st person (before President Trump, I am told by a WH aide) to walk on the new black granite outside the Oval Office since construction finally wrapped. Did my best not to scuff it up

When Seattle's Socialist Mayor was asked about the wealth exodus from Washington state she said "BYE" ... then giggled.

Someone told me once that the optimal strategy in Rock Paper Scissors is to choose paper every single time. It's why I always try to be honest and do what I say I'm going to do. No one expects it.
