And he’s still in his first term. Imagine what this piglet would get up to if he spends his entire career in the seat of power. 

Sounds like it’s Unplottable.

Rabia Chaudry once told me that every family east of Bulgaria has at least one djinn story. More, please!

Gracious me, this lettering is immaculate. I know the brickwork acts a guidelines, but keeping each letter uniform over a large space like this is much harder than you’d think.

She could literally just not address it at all and come back with a new book and some comments like “know better, do better” and her fanbase will be in the same place in exactly the same numbers.

Yessssss. Free beers and burgers last 20 minutes, but an ear worm (and a vaccine) is for LIFE.

Truly, it was an honour to be included, so her posture needed to reflect that.

I think we overestimate how much cultural knowledge kids have at 13-14. In some ways and in some subjects they may have great sensitivity and depth of knowledge, but in other ways they’re still completely products of their environment and they can’t know what they don’t know.

Jackman, Maine (which is where my family always crossed into Quebec in the 1990s, too) is now a White Supremacist haven, so it wouldn’t be shocking to see the same thing now, alas.

Keeping this as a reward for completing a protracted job application this afternoon. Karina is marvellous.

This is terrifying and needs more stars. Thanks for sharing it, and I’m glad your mom was all right.

Starred! I always love the late entries.

On Friday, my mother dropped off her own wire hanger in person at Collins’s Portland office and related a story about a college friend who had been rendered infertile by an abortion in the early 1970's to the intake staff.

Bing bing!

This needs more stars. I have a pet theory that Ivana is Donald’s perfect match, his true soul mate, but one morning he looked over and noticed visible signs of aging, and he had to end it immediately or face his own mortality.

He’s so dedicated to his personal mission; I love him.

In addition to the WOC already mentioned, Summer Lee is an African-American woman. This New Yorker profile of her was heartening.

I think it’s also worth mentioning that Avenatti treats Stormy Daniels with more respect than virtually anyone else in the media. Yes, she’s his client; yes, she’s paying him. But from what I’ve seen, Michael Avenatti treats her with the respect she deserves, and I appreciate that.

I’ve also done a bit of reading on his cases, which lead me to think he’s not as opportunistic as I would have assumed based on his TV appearances. And he is the ideal foil to Trump’s hapless outside legal team.

I think the case against Cosby is much stronger than the case against Ghomeshi. The number of victims, the 2005 Cosby deposition, and the extreme slut-shaming... I’m probably over-optimistic, but I think the sun is setting on this super-defamatory defence. Even with all the goodwill towards Cosby in greater…
