Direct, O Lord we beseech you, all our actions by your holy inspiration. And carry them on by your gracious assistance,
that every prayer and work of ours may begin
always from you -
- and by you be happily ended.
S10 just told me that Ender's Game is his favorite book ever (even better than LoTR). He's only half-way through. 😬

The lesson that literally no one on left is ready to hear me say to them is that if they genuinely and truly hate Donald Trump and think he is President Hitler (but for being held back by their protest songs ofc), then their only hope is to advance a small, limited national government.
There is no other play. No other gambit. The only way to prevent fascism is to decentralize power.
This professor is really stressed out over the unitary executive theory. “But if Congress can’t create independent agencies, then they won’t make agencies!”
It’s a steamy first reading today.
Resplendent and unfading is wisdom,
and she is readily perceived by those who love her,
and found by those who seek her.
She hastens to make herself known in anticipation of their desire;
Whoever watches for her at dawn shall not be disappointed,
for he shall find her sitting by his gate.
For taking thought of wisdom is the perfection of prudence,
and whoever for her sake keeps vigil
shall quickly be free from care;
because she makes her own rounds, seeking those worthy of her,
and graciously appears to them in the ways,
and meets them with all solicitude.

TIL that you can ask Google to download your search history and then ask Claude to tell you what funny things you've searched for.
Which, if you write, is *a lot*.
September 19, 2023, about 8 p.m. In twelve minutes you went from “does time exist?” to “if time exists, can we manipulate it,” then “can I change the gravity relative to an object” and “using electromagnetism to control gravity.”

Folks out here tweeting like Rush Limbaugh is still alive and you can say "limited government" or "free markets" and have those words mean something to the listener.

Every time my kids see a cybertruck, they yell, "Look mom, a cybertruck!"
They don't do that when they see a normal Tesla, if they even know they're looking at one.
Tesla will be winding down production of the Cybertruck at Gigafactory Texas around the middle of next year to make room for increased Cybercab production

... the chutzpah of my NC state party.
If you're keeping count, this is the first time anyone has said a word about this *very foreseeable issue.*

As I listen to classmates *not* realize that our professor is taking advantage of their empathy, I'm reminded that we have a cultural problem with people being too nice.
NO AWFUL LAW SCHOOL CLASS TONIGHT.
The professor is sick, I hope he feels better, he’s still promising recorded lectures that will never come.

You hate to see it. Anyway, here's the Marxian analysis of Zelda.

Today, after 31 years, we are saddened to announce that Salon is ceasing publication. It has been an extraordinary privilege. salon.com/2026/11/05/goodbye…
Salon was also super freaked out about Christian political candidates.
"Though he magnanimously acknowledges that atheists “have a right to not believe in God,” Rubio has called the Almighty the “source of all we have,” and, worse, stated that “our national motto is ‘In God We Trust,’” which reminds us that “faith in our Creator is the most important American value of all.”'

My poor county GOP party sending out the "it was disappointing, we will persevere" email and having to acknowledge its singular winner...
... a judge running opposed.

This summary is a work of art: "The jury acquitted Defendant of premeditated first-degree murder but convicted him of felony murder based on armed robbery, resulting in the case turning on whether Defendant robbed the victim's corpse of a stolen wallet that the victim himself had apparently stolen from someone else days earlier—a somewhat unusual "robber robbed by his own victim's killer" fact pattern."
