The Warmth of Other Suns is one of the best books I’ve ever read. As much as I appreciate the attention Oprah can bring, now I know why I’m 111 on the library’s waiting list for Caste.

Or to put it another way,

Mr. Jacoby was arrested on voter fraud charges in 2008 while he was doing work for the California Republican Party, and he later pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor.

Sports knowledge is my weak spot, so I may be completely off, but is it helpful right now that the WNBA isn’t as big as the NBA? Since the players of the WNBA aren’t getting paid millions of dollars per week, they have less to lose on a material level, and so they are freer to speak their minds.

The homeless (or as Sec. Mnuchin might say, “the under housed”) may not vote in great numbers, but legally they can. 

Probably, but there are several of those walking around. This was a funeral for a historic politician attended by scores of other politicians, not an opportunity to watch a football game from a luxury box.

There’s no doubt Lewis’s family decided who would speak at his funeral, and it’s possible Lewis himself gave his input before he passed on. If they were ok with GWB speaking at the service (for a fraction of the time President Obama spoke), I’m ok with it too.

“He was a person that devoted a lot of energy and a lot of heart to civil rights, but there were many others also.”

It isn’t like Lewis was attending all of the president’s inaugurations during his time in Congress, he didn’t attend George W. Bush’s 2001 inauguration either.

(the bone between the elbow and the shoulder, whatever that’s called, I got a D in anatomy in college).

Do you also get the sense that if the crazy swordsman pulls his sword wood replica on someone with a (legal) firearm and gets shot, the shooter would be charged? I can imagine McClay on the witness stand, testifying about the dozen times the sword guy menaced people but he was really “harmless”.

Almost like a sequel to Jackson’s episode of Finding Your Roots? I’m going to have to add Epix to my cable package.

For more on the scores of people misusing bleach, there are several episodes available from the Behind the Bastards podcast. If dark comedy is your thing, you’ll laugh as you learn more than you’ve ever wanted to know about bleach and the human body.

How should it have been phrased? The sentence “Joshua has the mental development of an elementary school-aged boy.” gives me a good idea of the challenges Joshua (and his caregivers) face, how would you word it to get the same idea across?

Dr. Paul Offit, a member of the FDA’s vaccine advisory committee, are worried that, as the Times put it, “the White House will push the Food and Drug Administration to overlook insufficient data and give at least limited emergency approval to a vaccine,” in order to boost Trump’s chances.

Gia (the one who got the nose job) is 19. The ones in the picture up top, with Teresa, are 11 and 15. 

But if they were kings, they’d probably be furious I didn’t own enough slaves. “A DESCENDANT OF MINE OWNS ZERO SLAVES?!?!” they’d fume in their tombs, and I don’t need that sort of pressure!

Sorry, it double posted for some reason

The DC suburbs once hosted a mall known as White Flint. Its anchors were Lord & Taylor and Dave N Busters, there was a post office, bank, dentist, tailor, and it was a nice place to shop.

My condolences to Judge Salas and her family. Maybe reducing access to federal judge’s information would have prevented this, but what about reducing Hollander’s access to firearms? The latter would also benefit a lot more Americans than approximately 870 federal judges and their families.
