"The truth is that the elite world that Epstein ascended into, the one I tapped into by way of the black book, is populated with hordes of loathsome, boring, untalented people ..."

"To call Epstein a grifter is to assume he circumvented some genuine meritocratic world order, where the “real” virtuosos dutifully climb the “real” ranks into the oligarchy, powered by nothing but their native talents." 2/4
"Built into the premise of Epstein the mastermind scammer is the notion that some kind of legitimate path to a legitimate global aristocracy exists." 1/4
This doctor is brilliant. So patient, so keen.

Found a great use for ChatGPT: I make slide decks for my professor, to help streamline his teaching and focus. ASL being a visual language, images are the best way to convey meaning. So I ask CGPT to create images, which are exactly what I need and royalty-free for education. HUGE help!
Zooey Zephyr is a goddamn hero. I hadn't seen this little New Yorker video before now, and it's fab.

Language deprivation is no joke in the deaf world. Brains want language--any and ALL language is good for the developing brain!

After all the Red Carpets, the ceremony itself, the after party & the after-after parties, nothing compares to the warm welcome upon my return home. 🐕 🐶 🐾

The other night, one of my dogs went into the yard and ate a bunch of poop, then came in the house and threw it all up on the carpet. Twice.
Anyways, that's what all of social media feels like to me these days. Just regurgitated shit from somewhere else.
51 degrees. At 9pm. In February. Wut?
Murphy: "Hegseth got the job because he's the weekend news anchor on Fox, and Trump watches a lot of Fox and so he decided to make that guy the head of the DOD and our chief negotiator in Ukraine. Pete Hegseth is screwing it up badly, but of course he is ... all he knows how to do is read the news"
What do you mean no media is covering it. I am looking at a Google page with CBS, NPR, ABC, The Guardian, just to name a few. It is being covered.
I miss friends list/filtering, and longer form posting with multiple photos and such. I wish something would turn up to challenge FB.
You mean when the concept of diversity gets misapplied. Terrible. Who do we write?
It's just not the same platform, format, functionality.. It will never replace fb sadly.
Looking fabulous, friend.
Ugh. I'm so glad you had such a good time while there, though!
Who could have POSSIBLY PREDICTED THIS? /s
I did thanks!
Same! But weirdly, my peonies think it's time to poke out of the soil. Nature is SO CONFUSED this year.
Thank you, I didn't know this.
ABA It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform. Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity. We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few. But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong. It is also contrary to the rule of law. The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair. We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.
Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.
Weak men cannot compromise. Weak men cannot build consensus. Weak men think that leadership means force. Weak men build nothing that lasts.
