Especially from a tech critic.

I am a dad and a music lover. Profanity aside, I will walk out of any room where anyone is playing the worst music I’ve ever heard. I don’t care what the ‘artist’ intends, but if I hear dog shit, I avoid as if it was tear gas. Kid Rock is unlistenable. Always has been, always will be. I detest the platform he’s been given and that we still have to utter his wretched name.

He is in the article and mentioned as a lefty, but just absent from the article’s title. I agree, just say “one out of 40” and you still make your point.

“Despite attention and widespread notoriety, neither Rockwell nor his party achieved political power and his following was largely insignificant.”

That’s a hell of an epitaph.

“But when truth becomes a byword with which to beat our enemies into submission at the cost of real human beings made in the image of God, when we hold no responsibility for vile language as long as we cloak it in the guise of “speaking the truth,” we risk becoming like Pilate, engaging in philosophical wordplay about the nature of veritas before inflicting state sponsored violence on an innocent man.”

Brute forced a word I don’t know.

3 is still great! Today’s was difficult because you didn’t start with many double green swaps; you had to set up a single green swap and anticipate a double.

That’s a 1st for me, all the letters but in the wrong place.

E.B. Farnum from Deadwood (the HBO show, anyway. Who knows what he was like in real life?)

Agreed on the independence part. We are much more interdependent than we let on (in the US especially, but other places as well).

If everyone 30+ got together and collectively decided what thriving meant, then worked to reach those goals, then I think we would all be thriving.

The majority isn’t hoping for a vacation home or to send their kids to Ivy League schools or to buy a bigger boat. The majority of middle class folk I talk to regard thriving as being comfortable enough to send the kids to some postsecondary school and take a few weeks vacation out of the country. They want to have enough to retire at 65 and live a modest life, be able to spoil their grandkids a little… nothing crazy.

The ability for all of us to thrive is already here. It is only the slight matter of systemic overhaul that prevents us.

I could see the words, but I couldn’t see the swaps to get to 5. Some days, the bar eats you.
