Sidestory: I worked in Paris in the 90s during the metro bombings. During the OJ trial, so the US justice system was a hot topic. The French derided our death penalty. Then the 20-something metro bomber was caught & the police surrounded him, lying in the street, and shot him. On tv. No trial!

This is so interesting! Over the past 3 years I've been through a surreal number of tragedies & supported many friends through their own. One consistent theme emerged: some people feel more entitled to the grief than others. Like it's a competition! OMG bizarre. Are you covering this topic?

Ugh. I'm a landlord & manage rentals. I deal fairly w/tenants & help unqualified applicants so they'll look great the next rental they try for. I report bad landlords & agents. These thieves make my job perception harder to overcome. Even my daughter won't learn the biz so she can take over one day.

Projection? Cuz I keep thinking everyone around him is running with their own football - too much is going on for 1 octogenarian-ish person to do. And golf. And throw parties. And destroy architecture and interior design.

Our Western civilization is bound by the rule of law. Culture, race, religion, ability, sex, orientation, finances, are all, in theory, irrelevant. Why don't they understand that?

Just spent 5 days in Montreal and the people couldn't possibly be more understanding and sympathetic. We're insane for doing this.

Got tix to see her next month - counting the days. How would you describe her? I like to think she's a mystic, but that's only part right. Maybe a prism.

Less itchy than her red skirt at the RNC, maybe? Or long enough to stop her from reaching under it? (Watch her hand behind Trump's head in the upper right image.) x.com/RonFilipkows...

Right b4 this started, my daughter's bf had an immigration status mtg & they *surprise* naturalized him. I think they knew what was coming & they rushed a bunch of people thru. At 1st I was pissed bc he knew we wanted to attend his ceremony but we soon found out how lucky he was.

Promises of free IVF. Promises of illegal immigrant gang members thrown out. No taxes on tips. Plus "No Black woman is gonna tell ME WHAT TO DO." are some additional reasons.

We were just wondering aloud about what happened to Jell-o molds, gelled salads or aspics. They used to be considered elegant, then they were more a fun thing, then they basically disappeared from menus. Thanks for posting, but I think we'll pass on that recipe! 🤮
