If Maxx can get his head screwed back on right AND has a new big chip on his shoulder - I want to keep him.

@tednguyen.bsky.social Do you think Spytek is doing full menu prep for day 2, or will it just be a snack today?

An Edward Gorey drawing showing a morose looking black bird on a branch. He (and this feels very much like a he) is pointing downwards with one scraggly wing, and looking straight ahead with debt-filled eyes. His beak is long and sharp, like winter on the Great Plains. He is pointing with his right wing, but this means he is pointing to your left. Your wicked, sinister side. This is no accident. The Bird makes no such mistakes. But he is talking, and the text tells us that he is saying, "Beware of this and that."  

Honestly, you feel his message in your bones.

Some days I just feel like this Edward Gorey bird gets it.

"The gun temporarily very powerful. Everybody loves one’s own life. So when gun shows, you see, out of fear, it’s a little discipline there. But that’s temporary method. I think world history shows that." H.H. the #DalaiLama George W. Bush Presidential Center interview

The Raiders can finally build because Mark has publicly and privately acknowledged that he doesn't know ball, and wants to hire people who do who he trusts. This should not be seen as some backwards progression, quite the opposite.

Also why he got an A on the NFL player report cards this year.

This is factually true, and it was a colossal failure, but Silver's snide "essentially ceded power" gives his game away. Mark Davis tasked his top football mind and the minority owner he brought in to run football, with running football for him. "Ceded power" casts a positive move negatively.

CEOs will do just about anything to avoid going to therapy and to avoid reversing their predecessor's horrific Fascist capitulation that sent their stock price plummeting

You're right, because it's basically DTC level goods at a warehouse scale, and requiring you to navigate a maddening maze filled with angry couples to get through it.

That said, I would rather have Ikea than DTC

Remember the Adidas "all day I dream about soccer" campaign? They should sponsor him and make some cleats that say ADIDAF on them (solid options for second and third meanings there as well, like the original)

You don't gotta hand it to them, but it's helpful to see all of the parts of the system built to keep people loyal that have nothing to do with ideology or policy - just straight up money and the borrowed dignity of fresh work

Hold federal tax liabilities in impoundment until the executive branch comes into compliance with federal law.

The IRS with its ranks already decimated by Trump will have a hell of a time trying to claw back small payments from tens of millions of individuals.

Perhaps Minnesota should pause paying its federal taxes for selfsame concerns, and they are valid to boot
