Quine: To be is to be the value of a bound variable
Me: To be is to be an element of a consistent logical theory
Oh gosh. Maybe the Russians need to choose a side.
Apropos of bathrooms and fecal bombing runs

New word:

Trumpazo (N). A successful massive bowel movement in the morning.
i genuinely cannot stand actual european elites condescendingly explaining american public opinion to americans. reminds me of when some british lady IRL tried to tell me she understood southerners better than i ever could, a southerner who lives in the south.
The educated liberal big city US folks outraged at Trump's renovation of Lincoln bathroom really need to scroll some Facebook of their less established relatives and friends to see what kind of aesthetic resonates with Trump's target audience.

Someday there will be a reckoning for the serial killings that the US government is engaged in on the oceans. Another admin should not refuse to extradite indicted officials to Intl Criminal Courts and senior military officers “just following orders” should not be exempted.
Ah, that CK, so yes one meaning of CK is "dead". I know about MAGA's Usha "problem"
Hmm. Don't know if this video is AI generated stuff or not, and I don't know what "CK" means, but Usha, you'd better find out. And if it's not AI and CK means essentially "dead", go find a nice embassy and make a plan to sneak into it wth your kinds.

Are the "best numbers" necessarily prime numbers? Is every prime a best number? Probably not. Are there infinitely many "best numbers"?
Trump: "I have the best numbers for any president in many years. Any president. And I would say if you read it, it's pretty clear I'm not allowed to run. It's too bad."

(Trump's approval rating is currently at a historic low, even for him, so no, his numbers are not the "best")
I have to ask: Are the "best numbers" necessarily prime numbers? Is every prime a best number? Probably not. Are there infinitely many "best numbers"?

But Usha fell for it. Poor Usha.
I don't know much about baseball, but it sure looks like Shohei Ohtani is the Terence Tao of baseball.
Maybe computation of indefinite integrals?
Concluding that the probability of an event is 1 with a sample of 2 trials seems a bit dubious w/o some additional information that would justify such a conclusion.
