I almost feel bad for Erdogan. Well, not really. I feel bad for us because almost 50% of our fellow citizens who voted decided they'd prefer an idiot of this magnitude over a competent Black/Asian woman.

I've figured out Trump's attempt to explain why he believes the evidence shows Tylenol is dangerous: Since his incessant public begging for a Nobel Peace Prize isn't going well, he's hedging by going after the Nobel Prize for Medicine.

The gradual and uneven development of class-action-like procedures in European jurisdictions is fascinating. If you're a certain kind of person. If you don't know if you're that kind of person, you're definitely not.

I'm grateful to the umpires for extending Surrey's cricket summer by one more day by taking the players off for bad light with one wicket remaining and 33 runs needed.

I love how narratives of thick executive power are built around the idea that the executive needs to be able to respond to national emergencies in the public interest but in the actual world it’s used primarily for crypto grift and punishing Jim Comey and his family.

I’m not sure places in history work that way

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured

The next time Trump & Vance lecture Europeans about free speech, the response should be raucous laughter.

I'm sorry I called your group "Gestapo." On reflection, I realize "Sturmabteilung" would have been more appropriate. I shall take greater care in future.

Another day, another grounds for impeachment

My what long knives those are.

I have a suggestion for which courts should shut down first. Or which court, really.

The first time as tragedy, the second as farce When you’re an American living in the UK, the 18th Brumaire echoes often in your mind

Mayor Khan, relentlessly making my borough terrible & imposing Islamic Sharia by supporting a Tube Line along one of our most congested arteries. Will no one stop this man?

The kids, as they often are, are all right

I hate everything

Come and get me, Nigel. My skills may not be what they used to be, but you ain’t sending me back against my will.

AI must have something to do with this

People are laughing at this, but it was important for her, given his drive to purge people with non-“standard” sexuality & gender, for her to dispel rumors that he is a sexual picador.

Remarkably, this isn’t about the DOJ

Fellow Americans, you may not know the story of a national trauma that has made the Brits the emotionally & economically stunted people they are today

One more state visit should change him

Donald Trump and I operating our own one-in-one-out system as foreigners entering Britain over the past week. Sorry, America; he had to go back so I could get in.

Maladministration? In cricket? Hard to believe.

This is a great way for Sinclair to make a significant number of people aware of its existence—& of the fact that much local TV across the country is controlled by an entity that slants content to the right. It's an interesting strategy.

Another plank for my 2028 platform I will fully fund this project

I'm so glad I was in New York LAST week. When all the big shots are in town for the GA, you very much want to be elsewhere.

But I did it before it was cool.

The words "crime-fraud exception" excite any red-blooded litigator. So international arbitration can be interesting. I told you so.

Maybe we should start calling it paracetamol, too. That’s slightly easier. The stupid with these people is just overwhelming.

If Debbie Harry isn’t singing, it’s not my Rapture

The prospect of those two reproducing has caused me to reconsider my position on eugenics & involuntary sterilization.

Appropriately leaves us in the last week of the cricket season

He should probably think it over for a while, rather than rushing in with a reflexive, spontaneous reaction like this.

I would find out the context of this skeet, except I'm in a good mood & would rather not expose myself to reality just now.

This is on the short list for to be the epitaph or the year 2025

More than that, Article II, cl. 32(a)(1) of the Constitution provides that the president shall not have the power to take punitive action against any natural or juridical person whose name he cannot pronounce. You can look it up.

Jews don’t read the Christian Bible? Many of us have lived for the better part of two millennia under Christian domination. In the United States, only a Christian pastor oblivious to his own privilege & the pervasive presence of Christianity could imagine that we’re ignorant of at least the Gospels.

This is the man whose capacity for understanding medical briefings was so great he said we were looking at "introducing light inside the body" and drinking bleach to fight Covid. Why would anyone listen to anything he says about medicine?

This is a humor site created by people with autism, FYI

If conservatives didn't want people to think they were racist, they wouldn't honor or beatify the likes of Lucy Connolly and Charlie Kirk.

He can take my Surrey County Cricket Club membership from my cold, dead hands.

Sitting in Harlem, listening to The Jets’ local radio, and… @akivamcohen.bsky.social, I feel your pain.

At least the Nazis were considerate enough to bring their own new flag, rather than co-opting the symbol that belonged to everyone

This is what happens when you flout the First Amendment. About to play themselves out of any hope of an ACC championship game in September.

When we have one weekend in September without a college or pro football game being delayed, I might treat “climate skeptics” with something other than utter contempt.

I’m not exaggerating: a character in a @courtneymilan.com romance novel recited the Rule Against Perpetuities. Debated the fertile octogenarian problem with a minor heroine. I’ve underestimated the utility of the common law

If you’re not a litigator, you may not know how pure & high-grade your bullshit has to be to get a judge to throw out your complaint before the defendant even asks. The lawyers who agreed to file this should be shunned by the profession.

That is not, in fact, the point of immigration
