CSotD: The Wide World of Whatever

Ann Telnaes provokes a response of “Well, yes, but no …”I think I’m done wondering whether Trump is a deliberate liar or truly believes the preposterous nonsense he says.

CSotD: It’s About Time

I get up early by most standards, but even earlier this morning because my bedside clock doesn’t change itself, so when I turned on my computer, I realized I’d rolled out an hour earlier than I had to. No worries: I’ll make it up with a nap later and I didn’t have to wait for […]
