The VP debate, that fly, Sartre’s “The Flies”, Hanoi Jane, the fattest bear, and the most masculine men

Eddie, geniuses, insults, stimulus, adultery, plexiglass, Care Bears, Leni Riefenstahl, the dossier, and sarcasm

Over-emotive piano playing... photos that look like something by Wes Anderson... or Andy Warhol... the fake fear/courage distinction about covid, and the return of “mother’s little helper.” You can eavesdrop as I read my blog to my husband.

Trump's covid as a campaign opportunity, Dan Rather's patriotism aphorism, teaching via monuments, we lost Janis Joplin 50 years ago — readings from the Althouse blog this morning, with added commentary.

SNL teams up science and karma, Monica Lewinsky wants a psychology czar, Trump looking busy and not orange, and swapping Mike Pence in as the presidential nominee.

No quorum to confirm Amy Coney Barrett, Trump the tragic hero, using and abusing murder hornets, CNN should be BPP, that birdsong, text-on-text action, the editor self-immolates.

A birdsong, Trump has COVID, Americans feel justified in using violence, hate speech against the disabled, the line of presidential succession.

How Trump won the debate, the Army wants naps and journaling, the artists and museums can’t get coherent about white supremacy.

Trump’s suspicious preposition, I Am Woman, the rainbow in my hair, 2 idiots, and the failure to talk about Critical Race Theory.

Trump’s taxes, wet hair, Edward Hopper and the deplorables, the Wild Card series, and gesturing “stop” at the sunrise.
