To my niece: “Try one. ONE. I love you, but you can only have one because they’re so good.”

The roof comes off, and each of the floors are different.

Additionally, simply because someone doesn't like something(s) is a license for you to use your degree from AOL Medical School to diagnose them with any manner of deep pathology. White lady doesn't like rap is a racist and hates brown people? What about the black lady who doesn't like rap? Or the Korean dude who doesn't like rap? That kind of thing? What if they just don't like rap and find it cacophonous, same as I find a healthy swath of music?

Chill, folks. Just chill.

Alina Habba claimed that the judge who oversaw Trump’s defamation trial has a conflict of interest and that it may warrant overturning writer E. Jean Carroll’s $83.3M jury award.
In a letter to the federal court in Manhattan, Habba alleges that Judge Lewis Kaplan’s prior working relationship with Carroll attorney Roberta Kaplan, who is not related to him, constitute a conflict in interest.

The thing about fascists is that they aren’t trying to solve problems. They’re invested in exacerbating problems and deepening the divisions that result from chaos. They reject the free press and denounce the institutional structures within a society like Congress or the courts.

1970 - Keith Moon
Chauffeur Neil Boland was accidentally killed when The Who's drummer Keith Moon ran over him in his Bentley. Moon was trying to escape from a Gang of skinheads after a fight broke out at a pub in Hatfield, England. Boland got out to try to protect the car, but left it in gear. He fell under the car and it started moving with Moon at the wheel as he tried to escape the fight. The drummer had never passed his driving test.

IF the #TRAITOR goes to prison for any, all, one of the 34 felony counts, GREAT. However, I'd rather this piece of orange, narcissistic, treasonous ass be #Imprisoned for attempting a coup on Jan 6 and ordering the VP and other democratic politicians to be assassinated.

Ted Gioia writes about the recent turnaround of Barnes & Noble, which he attributes to the company’s new CEO and his love of books. James Daunt, who took the helm of B&N in late 2019, previously saved UK bookshop chain Waterstones, in part by refusing to take promotional money from publishers:

I can't tell you how much I like the idea that in a few days, the hours of daylight will begin getting longer.

Ted Gioia talks about how quasi-monopolies like social media collapse under their desire to control, not serve, customers. Very relevant. https://open.substack.com/pub/tedgioia/p/how-web-platforms-collapse-the-facebook

I found the analogy I'm going to use from now on.
Twitter is the public square, where everyone can get a soapbox and yell at the crowds who are just milling around aimlessly.
CoSo is the neighborhood bar, where, whether you enjoying a Bud, a bud, or milk, you're welcome and the crowd is friendly. A 100 conversations going on around the room. Lots of laughing, a few very serious discussions, these are your people. And a whole bunch of us are pointing and laughing at all the birds.
