NEW: GOP Gov nominee Victor Marx told backers on a Zoom call last night that he doesn't regret slamming his wife into a door to teach her a lesson about self-defense. "I'd do it again," Marx said. Marx says she fake cried and physicality is just the nature of their relationship.

Faced with outrage over his use of taxpayer money for campaign ads, Trump now says he’ll use his PAC money. Will he pay back the money from ads that already ran? I want proof of what he says, because he’s a lying criminal.
Trump: The Radical Left is upset with the fact that I am taking Ads, which I consider to be a positive promotion for our Great U.S.A., and paying for them with U.S.A. money. This is a rather standard thing to do but, rather than doing that, although nothing will make them happy, I have decided to do the Patriotic Ads, among others, and pay for them myself, and with money I raised for MAGA, Inc. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP

There’s a motte and bailey to it. That ambiguous text and terms of art can codify a meaning understood at the time of adoption is true and mundane. But in practice “originalism” has become just this: bad faith window dressing for right-wing policy preferences and pro-Republican partisanship.

the birthright citizenship question is, to me, the clearest evidence that originalism as practiced is just living constitutionalism for right-wing jurists. the originalist answer is the conventional one is the textual one, but that was basically unacceptable to much of the right.

Professional photograph of a squirrel leaping down from a branch at a very startled-looking owl. The owl’s yellow eyes are wide as it looks over its shoulder up at the squirrel who clearly has zero regard for his own life, his mouth open as if shouting WITNESS ME, or potentially some sort of justification for this surprise attack, Inigo Montoya style. Whatever the Owl has to say in return is definitely in all caps.

I think Mike Flanagan's adaptation of "Carrier" is probably VERY close to the version of "Carrie" that Stephen King would write today, which isn't *necessarily* always a good thing. "Carrie" is small. The series wants to be big. I'm not sure it should be. My review:

At the global scale, AI has benefited from decades of climate and weather records covering the entire Earth. But at the regional scale, forecasts start to be much more challenging for AI. That difference matters for forecasting hurricane intensity.

Artificial intelligence now produces excellent weather forecasts on a broad scale. But several factors complicate its ability to predict how fast a hurricane will ramp up.

Question: Does "misconduct" mean my sperm count was too low? 

Answer: No. Misconduct would mean a recruiter did something inappropriate-not that your sperm count was low.

Recruiters do not measure sperm by tasting or smelling a sample. That is not a test, and it does not produce a sperm-count result.
