They are not going after Kelly because he said to obey only lawful orders. They are going after Kelly because, even without that comment, they believe the military is on the edge of rejecting their unlawful orders.

Someone said something unhinged and rather than engage, I just silently blocked them. This shows that I’ve grown as a person. Shower me with validation.

I’m now following a Dalek on BlueSky.
Happy Doctor Who Day!
On the left: my first time as a Dalek operator (for the BBC’s ‘30 Years in the TARDIS’ in 1993).
On the right: me, still doing it.
62 years for the show. 32 years for me.

Thinking about the time my friends and I skipped school to go see the phantom menace when it premiered and somehow our principal figured it out and called us into his office but didn’t punish us because he also saw it and decided we’d been through enough

Book deal. Talk show circuit. Boone’s Farm.
seeing people confidently stating that Greene is obviously going to run for senate or gov. certainly possible. I mean, the whole thing is a stunner to me. but looking at the statement, the calendar and the year, I'm kind of skeptical about that.

He’s delaminating before our eyes.
The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law.
This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.

“Things happen.” Really. If the question were about Charlie Kirk and someone said that, the right would be calling for their resignation or firing.

The American Bar Association will undertake a sweeping review of its standards for law schools as states weigh dropping the organization as an accreditor and critics blame its regulations for driving up student costs.

Since I evidently still have the critical acclaim juice, if you know of anyone who needs a narrative/content/game designer with technical and management skills, 15 years of experience, acclaim in related fields, and has some other fancy awards like being a Forbes 30 under 30, I’m your guy!

Our season finale is tonight at 11pm on HBO Max/11:12pm on HBO!! And when we’re back in February? It may feel like we’ve been away for years! But keep in mind, that’s mostly because John is aging at an extreme pace. Months read like years on his face. It’s startling. Even to us.
