There are a lot of hills I'll do battle on but it turns out this is the one I'll die on. Meanwhile there's a reissue coming out this fall with this nonsensical cover that I also need to fight about
Olive edition of the Princess Bride by William Goldman
The cover is an ombre gold background with a vase that holds a single red rose. The thorns are visible, like the vase is translucent I guess, and one petal on the outside of the rose is white

These people almost got caught. They spent too much time on the 8 and changed strategies for the 6 and then had to rush to finish. It honestly looks like they used a round mop head dipped in a bucket of piss

Agatha Christie has her (many) problems but there were some things she saw clearly. This is from N or M? (1941), about Nazis.
"You do not know the force of the German propaganda. It appeals to something in man, some desire or lust for power. These people were ready to betray their country not for money, but in a kind of megalomaniacal pride in what they, *they themselves*, were going to achieve for that country. In every land it has been the same. It is the Cult of Lucifer—Lucifer, Son of the Morning. Pride and a desire for *personal glory!"*

The videos I'm seeing of the massive crowd in Times Square are spiking my anxiety. I'm so glad there's such a huge turnout here and around the world. My place today is home with my dog and my wife, who had a pretty awful medical procedure this week.

I was starting to beat myself up about not rallying after a very long and rough week to go to the protest in Times Square and then I remembered that I can only do that kind of huge slow moving crowd thing if I bring the dog, and I'm not making HIM rally today. No kings but him.
