Huh. Today in "always look up the etymology because sometimes you're just repeating a myth but sometimes it's weirder and more incredible than you could have possibly imagined" www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/c...
Screenshot of Merriam Webster etymology note for cockamamie: 
By the look and sound of it, cockamamie (also spelled "cockamamy") could have something to do with a rooster and the outrageous sound it makes. But in fact, cockamamie is believed to be an altered form of the term decalcomania, which refers to the process, invented in the mid-19th century, of transferring pictures and designs from specially prepared paper to surfaces such as glass or porcelain. (The word referring to the picture or design itself, decal, is a shortening of decalcomania.) The word decalcomania comes from French, with décalcomanie combining the verb décalquer, meaning "to trace" or "to transfer by tracing," and -manie, meaning "-mania." Starting in the 1930s, painted strips of paper with images capable of being transferred to the skin were called decals or—in children's slang—cockamamies. Those familiar with today's temporary tattoos will understand quickly that these were regarded by many as silly novelties, lending the word cockamamie the necessary leeway for application to anything ridiculous.

so some lady around here runs an lgbt nonprofit, and they recently announced that they don't tell the truth about where any of their money goes. nevertheless they were included in some official statistics printed yesterday: i spied her gay org, which is an out liar and should not have been counted.

Wile E. Coyote Finally Kills Road Runner Then Immediately Wishes He Hadn’t
4 panel comic

Panel 1: Wile E. Coyote has finally murdered Road Runner by crushing him under a massive boulder

Panel 2: Wile celebrates his long sought after victory

Panel 3: Wile steps out from behind the boulder and is immediately confronted by Columbo who says “Mr. Coyote” in his typically annoying but persistent manner

Panel 4: Columbo calls his name again. Panicked, Wile retreats quickly behind the boulder, but in his heart of hearts, he knows it will do no good. In about two hours he’ll be going to prison. And not cartoon prison. Human prison.

I posit a concentration of wealth and power beyond which you're so divorced from reality that rational decision making becomes impossible. Call it the Caligula Threshold. Anyway my read is that Ellison is way over the Caligula Threshold and Bari Weiss is the horse he has chosen to command his army.

Honestly, as far as I can tell, it's mostly more reporting. COVID got everybody's attention. "Oh disease outbreaks are a thing. And they screw up all your plans." Then we had Cyclospora- which to be clear is a HUGE & messy outbreak. And now newsrooms know outbreak reporting gets clicks.
