How can he say this with a straight face?

There he goes again!

Does he mean like a dog shot and left to die by Kristi the Gnome?

Apparently it involves saying only whatever billionaire oligarchs want to hear. If you do that, and only that, Legacy Media is more likely to cover your position, and may also report that you are "winning" the news.

David, let me be frank. You sound like a bot. You write like a bot. And you might well may be a bot. So, I'll ignore you.

No. Only a younger person would need chatgpt to know that Dylan won the 2016 Nobel Prize, or that he won an academy award, or that he's won 10 Grammy awards. Older Dylan fans know this because they've actually lived through it all and were paying attention. I've got every lyric Dylan ever wrote.

Chatgpt is what your generation uses to write songs. At 83, Dylan still writes his own songs.

Great questions for the New York Times to answer! They won't, of course, but even on a rhetorical level, these are the questions we all should be asking.

The greatest living lyricist is Bob Dylan. He's written approximately 600 songs over the past 64 years and he is the most influential songwriter of that period. Dylan's complex body of work won the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature, a 2001 Academy Award for Best Original Song, and ten Grammy Awards.

Only for people who look at the facts with cold, clear logic and reasoning. But that's not the average voter. The same people who hate minorities, immigrants and LGTBQ people now will simply forget this ever happened and will vote for the next GOPer who says he or she hates the same groups they do.

For a brief moment, I thought this was a picture of Karoline Leavitt.

Just a question of when.

We appear to be nearing the end of an almost 250 year old American judicial system that once respected the rule of law.

Saw her in Houston earlier this year. She's fantastic.

Storm clouds gather over an abandoned ranch house in Big Bend National Park. I took this photograph on a stormy day there in 2022.

The Rio Grande winds its way through the desert in West Texas on its way to the Gulf of Mexico. I took this photograph in 2022.

This guy is also a big pal of Texas Governor Greg Abbott.

Freudian slip no doubt.

Bob Dylan, obviously.

One of the ironies of the situation is that many of the people challenging books at the local level don't regularly read books themselves.

SOME legal experts?

I still wonder whether some of those male U.S. Supreme Court Justices were clients of Jeffrey Epstein and whether their names appear on the Epstein client list.
