It's all three, but there's also something else: weak, atrophied brains.

Typos are one thing but elite messages go beyond that, they show an inability to communicate beyond mere urges and feelings, and the reason they can't communicate beyond those is because they can't think through those.

Cursory research suggests that their quality nosedived in the 80s, so it checks out that Trump would still think they're good.

Mens shoes that men of certain age might think are quality. They're not well regarded now.

Someone should make a different movie where a playwright abandons their family after a family tragedy & then their grief-stricken spouse attends the play and realizes it wasn’t worth it because the play is terrible

And it's also not true to say "one of his ancestors" was Cherokee. Citizenship requires continual enrollment of each generation in the tribe.

Yes, with all due respect, Chuck, you're not in a position to tell a sovereign nation how it defines citizenship. Most nations do not define citizenship by "blood quantum." (Whether it matters is a different matter entirely.)

I was once told to always use personal addresses for FOIA requests. By the time you get a response, you might have been laid off from your current job (or moved on to a better one).

Fitch Downgrades Paramount After Warner Bros. Deal Announcement The $81 billion deal for Warner Bros. Discovery is highly complex and poses credit risks, Fitch Ratings said.

After Warner Bros. deal, Paramount's debt has been downgraded to junk status

Basically, the ratings agency thinks the combined entity faces a ton of competition & there's a risk the entire enterprise fails -- debt attached to it is therefore high-risk

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.

Shia LaBeouf says 'gay people are scary to me' while claiming homophobia led to Mardi Gras arrest "When I’m standing by myself and three gays are next to me touching my leg, I get scared," LaBeouf said. "I’m sorry. If that’s homophobic, then I’m that. Yeah."

Can we make this man go away, please?
