I just found something I had misplaced, and I did so by successfully retracing my steps.

In tennis, perfection is impossible… In the 1,526 singles matches I played in my career, I won almost 80% of those matches… Now, I have a question for all of you… What percentage of the POINTS do you think I won in those matches?
Only 54%.

It’s not simply important to denounce political violence because it looks bad not to. It’s the right thing to do on the merits. Even more specifically to this moment it’s important because the forces of fascism are inherently better at political violence than the forces of civic democracy.

Without making any judgment about Israel's military action in Iran last night...
The fact that news outlets are calling the attack unprecedented is just dumb. They did the same thing to Iraq 44 years ago. I’d say it is quite precedented.

I feel the need to vent... The end of last night's NCAA National Championship game was just fucking awful (unless, you were rooting for Florida, of course).
I didn't really care who won, but Houston's implosion was just depressing...

If you customize and train your GPT clients well, they can really make excellent conversationalists for random subjects.
For example, I was just discussing the Maltese elections of 1981 and 1987 with Hal (that's what I named mine, of course).
This is how he reacted to me LOLing.

Thread: Republicans won the Senate in 2024 despite Democrats winning more votes & representing more people nationwide.
Republicans last won more support than Democrats in the 1990s but won the Senate anyway in 7 of 13 elections since 2000.

On one hand the ostensible job of the Department of Government Efficiency will be to drastically cut federal jobs.
But on the other hand, what they're doing is really a make-work program for a future Democratic oversight investigation.
