@JohnCleese Newsom? That’s your best joke since the Python days.

I'm afraid that all Americans are becoming tarred by the MAGA brush All my American friends - of whom there are many - are going to experience hostility that they do not deserve

@JonahDispatch Good article. You didn't mention it, but I think part of the confusion is the term "misdemeanor." In modern usage that is another type of crime, but I believe in this context it meant "malfeasance."

I understand that a lot of people don't read the articles on this site. But I am happy to concede for argument's sake that what Trump has done with this slush fund is legal. Impeachable offenses do not need to be illegal. Stop sending me your grok slop. thedispatch.com/article/trump-…

@jarvis_best The chest that launched a thousand ships…

Expert history scientists using AI have released this image of what Helen of Troy actually looked like:

@ImmortanZit @UN_Women You go girl!

Let women of all sexes be women. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

Let women be. Let women lead. Let women thrive. Let women speak up. Let women represent. Let women live peacefully. Let women express themselves. Let women control their bodies. Let women live.

@jpodhoretz Let's throw in at least one (moderately) contemporary novel. I'd go with Bonfire of the Vanities.

Here is my list of the top ten novels of all time: ANNA KARENINA. WAR AND PEACE. THE BROTHERS KARAMAZOV. MIDDLEMARCH. JANE EYRE. PRIDE AND PREJUDICE. THE LAST CHRONICLE OF BARSET. NOTRE DAME DE PARIS (The Hunchback of Notre Dame). TOM JONES. PERE GORIOT.

@Legacy411 Total package of great voice, looks, and general awesomeness—Grace Slick.

You Can Choose only One Iconic Female Rock Vocalist ...So who do you think is the best? 🤔 I had it narrowed down to three but... I have to say it's Stevie Nicks. 🔥

@ImmortanZit No one gets it like Yehe do!

If the sounds and smells of male changing rooms is uncomfortable to you then you just may be a trans woman and maybe even a lesbian. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

@charlie0824 @buttonslives It’s hard to argue with that. As a somewhat disgruntled Protestant the ritual of the Catholic Church is pretty amazing.

I highly suggest the Catholic church, started by Jesus Christ. It's been continued, in an unbroken line of apostolic succession, from the first bishops, the 12 apostles. The typical Sunday mass is entirely scripturally based and there's a 2000-year-old tradition of Holy sacraments and rituals that bring us closer to Him and His scripture. We welcome ALL!

I think I’m going to give church another try. I need help understanding evil. Which kind of church talks about that?

@awstar11 Back in the day people said I looked like Hugh Grant or Robert Chambers, the preppie murder guy. I doubt Hugh would take the job and I’m not sure Robert is available.

Which actor should play you in a movie about you?

@evanwch One of the reasons doctors won’t go into primary care is that they are easily replaced by nurse practitioners and physician assistants who now can now practice pretty independently in some places. Free primary care would just accelerate that.

Not a horrible idea but we will still have a supply issue. This would need to be tethered to other reforms for it to be successful. We would need to end the doctor cap enforced by the medical cartel and probably make medical school free for any American citizen who becomes a Primary care doctor and not a specialist. Currently, only around 12% of all doctors are primary care physicians because of the lower pay

@TimelessTrvlr That’s hard to argue with but for me it’s in the same city— the Pantheon.

What’s the greatest building you’ve ever stood inside? For me, it was St. Peter’s Basilica.

@JimShieldsHere @watson2nd @gerrydee For sure. Every time I see a pro miss a two foot putt it drives that point home.

@ablainer9 @watson2nd @gerrydee Couldn’t agree more. My lowest round is a 79 and since I started playing I am adamant that there is no such thing as a gimmie. There’s an absurd amount of fake scores/ fake handicaps out there. My 79 was legit. No Gimmies, no mulligans, no foot wedges EVER. Or just don’t post 🤷🏻‍♂️

Break 70: Great golfer 70-75: Really good golfer 76-80: Good golfer 80-85: Pretty good golfer 86-89: Decent golfer 90-99: Okay golfer 100-110: Goes golfing 111-119: Likes golf 120 or more: Tried golf Agree or disagree?

@jamesrobbo2020 @watson2nd @gerrydee That’s as it should be. In the US the gimmies especially can get very iffy.

@ablainer9 @watson2nd @gerrydee In the UK we score properly without gimmies and mulligans

@LumberJer @lady_valor_07 No doubt, but tobacco smells way better.

@ablainer9 @lady_valor_07 That’s how you know it’s good

Cigarette smell gotta be one of the worst smells in the history of smells.. Agree..?

@USronaldcarter “Your kid is learning multiplication tables”—that’s great if true. I thought schools were moving away from all of those time-tested methods.

🚨 This week Elon posted "my son is learning Mandarin" in Chinese characters from Beijing.. that same day.. 6-year-old X Æ A-Xii was standing inside the Great Hall of the People in a traditional vest and tiger-head bag.. in the same room as Tim Cook.. Jensen Huang.. and Chinese Premier Li Qiang.. and the wildest part.. Elon didn't bring him as a photo op.. he brought him as a student.. China is Tesla's single largest market.. the Shanghai Gigafactory builds more cars than any other Tesla plant on earth.. and Elon's 6-year-old is already in the room where the deals get made.. this is the same playbook every single time.. Elon brought kids to White House events.. to factory floors.. to rocket launches.. and described one son as his "emotional support human" at a state dinner.. he doesn't separate family from business.. he treats global market access as parenting.. your kid is learning multiplication tables.. his kid is learning Mandarin inside the building where America's most important trade relationships get decided. I'll share more updates shortly. Turn on notifications, this is very important.

@watson2nd @gerrydee Yes, this is right if you’re counting all the strokes, penalties, and no gimmes or mulligans. A lot of these guys who supposedly hit in the 80’s aren’t actually doing it.

@gerrydee Very very few people break 90. Your sheet is off. Really great golfers golf 80-90. Amazing golfers are 72-79 Professionals are 71 and under.

@charlesmurray Cleopatra. I’ve always liked it especially Rex Harrison as Caesar.

Casablanca. Top that. historyfacts.com/arts-culture/a…

@CultureExploreX I think it’s alluded to in the Odyssey?

In which of Homer’s epic does Achilles die?

@ropeuhdope2 @MarcoFoster_ @mehdirhasan Many people are aware of this but have the opinion that committing an act of war by attacking our embassy and taking hostages for over a year negated any deal made with the prior regime.

@MarcoFoster_ @mehdirhasan For those thinking Obama just gave them money..Here’s the truth…reading is fundamental ladies & gentlemen…

President Obama on Iran: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz”
