Jia’s to-do list: Find the wizard’s killer. Save an innocent barbarian (who’s still kind of a jerk). Get her aunt the crime boss off her back. Find the wizard’s missing roommate -- alive. Maybe make some time with the barbarian’s cute partner. And oh yeah, don’t die... #Bluepit #fa #sns #A

One of the more bizarre stories I've ever read in the NYT. I don't remotely understand what its thesis is.

And it has a world-historic "to be sure..." graf in the 26th paragraph.

NYT headline

Trump Has His Eyes on a Nobel Peace Prize.
Will He Get It?
President Trump has coveted the prize for years. The winner will be unveiled 48 hours after President Trump announced a breakthrough in the Israel-Hamas war.

Ms. Graeger also noted that some of Mr. Trump's foreign policy aims run counter to the prize's criteria - such as peaceful disarmament and international cooperation - given the U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear program, its withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement and its cuts to international humanitarian aid programs like U.S.A.I.D. She added that Mr. Trump's domestic policy agenda points to an
"infringement of the basic democratic rights."

SWIFT: Trav, honey?
KELCE: (looks up from first edition Krazsnahorkai in original Hungarian) (pauses rare Steve Reich LP, Japanese pressing) Yes?
SWIFT: What rhymes with "thighs"?
KELCE: Hmm. "Belies," perhaps?
SWIFT: (under her breath) Oh for fuck's sake
