Two panels from "The Good Place" – Elenor asks "It's like, who died and left Aristotle in charge of ethics?" Then Chidi points at a blackboard that says "ETHICS 101" with the list of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle and says "Plato."

Stephen Greenblatt’s new book “Dark Renaissance“ reminds us that some version of “work for hire” has ensured producers and not creators profit most from the arts for at least the past five hundred years, if not much longer.
“The box office receipts for this piece of blood-soaked entertainment were spectacular and remained so for decades. Though the play's author would not have directly profited from the success—the theatrical entrepreneur who had bought the script and owned the rights would reap the benefit—his triumph…”

Worst boy-band EVAR.
In a black and white White House photo, Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, and Stephen Miller, and other officials are all in front of a black drape, looking ahead at a monitor or display out of frame, like the worst artsy boy-band album cover in the world.

I'm fairly unlikely to play OSRIC, it being an old school AD&D retroclone and way down the list of RPGs I'd like to run or play eventually, but I've got to respect that it is now itself in its third edition and that its illustration for the Charisma attribute is this guy.
A black and white ink drawing of a bag-pipe playing bard with long windswept hair and a full beard, dressed in medieval-style D&D clothing, complete with a kilt, sword, and dagger. From the signature, probably credited to artist Del Teigeler.

My partners and I had a handfasting ceremony on October 1st, the 20th anniversary of the three of us getting together, and had all of our families present for it. A beautiful, perfect, magical day.
Three men in tuxedos stand facing each other underneath a vine-covered arbor on a clear Fall day, their outstretched left hands joined by a braided, multicolored cord, while a priestess in a black robe with a purple stole reads a ceremony from a book.

I can see Christmastime as a moment of peace and goodwill in this beleaguered world … and I can also see Donald J. Trump using that moment to launch military strikes because no one would expect it and he needs to distract from his domestic problems.
Truth Social post, reading: Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries! I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was. The Department of War executed numerous perfect strikes, as only the United States is capable of doing. Under my leadership, our Country will not allow Radical Islamic Terrorism to prosper. May God Bless our Military, and MERRY CHRISTMAS to all, including the dead Terrorists, of which there will be many more if their slaughter of Christians continues. DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Donald Trump is a monster without a shred of humanity. That he is allowed to continue to besmirch our highest elected office is a disgrace to this nation.
A Truth Social post from Donald Trump: “A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS. He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before. May Rob and Michele rest in peace!”

“Don’t say on the internet that I was mad or worried about the Epstein Files.”
Jeffrey Epstein, who was charged by the Trump Justice Department in 2019 (Not the Democrats!), was a lifelong Democrat, donated Thousands of Dollars to Democrat Politicians, and was deeply associated with many well-known Democrat figures, such as Bill Clinton (who traveled on his plane 26 times), Larry Summers (who just resigned from many Boards, including Harvard), Sleazebag Political Activist Reid Hoffman, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (who asked Epstein to donate to his Campaign AFTER Epstein was charged), Democrat Congresswoman Stacey Plaskett, and many more. Perhaps the truth about these Democrats, and their associations with Jeffrey Epstein, will soon be revealed, because I HAVE JUST SIGNED THE BILL TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES! As everyone knows, I asked Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, to pass this Bill in the House and Senate, respectively. Because of this request, the votes were almost unanimous in favor of passage. At my direction, the Department of Justice has already turned over close to fifty thousand pages of documents to Congress. Do not forget - The Biden Administration did not turn over a SINGLE file or page related to Democrat Epstein, nor did they ever even speak about him. Democrats have used the "Epstein" issue, which affects them far more than the Republican Party, in order to try and distract from our AMAZING Victories, including THE GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL TAX CUT BILL, Strong Borders, No Men in Women's Sports or Transgender for Everyone, ending DEl, stopping Biden's Record Setting Inflation, lowering Prices, Biggest Tax and Regulation Cuts in History, ending EIGHT Wars, rebuilding our Military, knocking out Iran's Nuclear capability, getting Trillions of Dollars INVESTED in the U.S.A., creating the "HOTTEST" Country anywhere in the World, and even delivering a HUGE DEFEAT to the Democrats on the recent Shutdown Disaster. For years our Great Nation has had to endure RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, UKRAINE, UKRA…

I see Trump is having a totally normal morning after being briefed on where the SCOTUS is on his tariffs. "It's like a guy isn't even allowed to put a simple tariff on a foreign country any more!" (Also, "onerous"? Who slipped that into the briefing?)
TruthSocial post from 11/9/25, 8:22 am: "So, let's get this straight??? The President of the United States is allowed (and fully approved by Congress!) to stop ALL TRADE with a Foreign Country (Which is far more onerous than a Tariff!), and LICENSE a Foreign Country, but is not allowed to put a simple Tariff on a Foreign Country, even for purposes of NATIONAL SECURITY. That is NOT what our great Founders had in mind! The whole thing is ridiculous! Other Countries can Tariff us, but we can't Tariff them??? It is their DREAM!!! Businesses are pouring into the USA ONLY BECAUSE OF TARIFFS. HAS THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT NOT BEEN TOLD THIS??? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON???President DJT"

How it started ... how it's going.
From The Independent in July: "The 90,000-square-foot ballroom, announced on Thursday, will be built where the East Wing currently sits and will have a seated capacity of 650 people. The East Wing is home to several offices, including the first lady's. Those offices will be temporarily relocated during construction while that wing of the building is modernized and renovated, said White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. "Nothing will be torn down," she said. White House chief of staff Susie Wiles said the president and his White House are "fully committed" to working with the appropriate organizations to preserve the mansion's "special history." New York Times headline, October 22: "Trump Administration Live Updates: White House Changes Course and Will Demolish Entire East Wing"
