They set a slamhound on Turner's trail in New Delhi, slotted it to his pheromones and the color of his hair.

With SANDBAGGERS now on Amazon Prime, I present The Cut-Glass Index, a ranking of the series' posh accents. We begin at #10: Jeff Ross. Cartoonish American accent, vital as a foil, but a deep blow to the character. A golden retriever gallumping through the hedge rows amid the beagles. Score: 0/10Jef
From this angle, Will Forte could return to SNL for the occasional topical sketch.
That is coincidentally my Wednesday double-feature.
Our apartment neighbor put out her Halloween candy early this morning. We have our own in the house, but my wife bought it and I don't know where it is.

Can I eat the candy my neighbor put out for tonight's children right now if I will essentially replace it with our own candy later tonight?
Jos Louis and a Pepsi, the secular sacrament, violate no religious restrictions.
I change mine every Tuesday. Feels decadent.
Every LLM reply is a hallucination. Sometimes, those hallucinations are correct.
Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.
I Am Love gathers nine separate works by John Adams, a classical composer. Together they create the dizzying exuberance that flutters in the heart of Swinton's unfaithful matriarch.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."
I said the same to my wife when I saw him at an event. Six or six-one.
It's the return of the Man In The Hope Blazer.
Few words bring me back to my early teen years in Buenos Aires like "boludo." I go years without hearing or remembering it. Then I'm right back in Vincente Lopez, planning a trip to Italpark with friends.
The champagne of TV theme songs.
I'm not taking grammar advice from a generation that refuses to punctuate text messages.
Them: "It's just one bad apple."
Me: "Finish that saying."

I'm definitely misunderstanding something. 😉

This last from you makes sense given the additional posts under the first. I now remember seeing mentions earlier today to an NYT essay in support of moderates. The post we're discussing could be oblique backlash to the backlash.
I think I followed that, but I can't make sense of the first part when I apply that structure to it. Is it because the first part is framed conclusively ("moderate candidates *don't* do better") while the second part allows nuance ("tall players are sometimes great")?
Sorry to be obtuse, but I can't follow your simile, maybe because I don't know basketball's chestnuts. Is the height argument true but oversimplified? If so, then so's the argument about the success of moderate candidates? It's true they don't do better overall, but there's more to that?
The view from the top of the Miss-Ma'am thermocline is breathtaking.
A gentleman's choice.
One of the cardigans in your closet. Just pick one of them. If you can decide which ones might match your outfit, send me some pics and I'll help.
