Highly recommend his autobiography, Radical Son, great exploration of how he grew from a red-diaper baby, Black Panther supporter, Berkley leftist into a LOUD conservative. Very readable and I learned a lot.
I heard his interview on NPR yesterday morning. He looks exactly as I expected.
NPR has been gleefully reporting that deportation numbers are low, had a whole story about a big, empty tent meant to hold deportees in Ciudad Juarez, MX. Not surprise Trump jumped on this.
I think his July Johnson in Lonesome Dove stands out, that's saying something since the whole movie is incredibly cast.
I worked with a guy, Joe, who told me this story. Joe worked at a summer camp for years when he was younger. Camp was run by a friendly couple, husband and wife, and Joe really liked them. Years later Joe runs into the husband and inquires about the wife. Apparently the husband woke up one night to a knife to his throat. His wife told him, "you don't know how many nights I've done this, this is the first time you woke up." He filed the next day.

Found this article about the two guys he mentioned. From an Australian new source in 2014.

“Havard told his parents it was during his time at the Christchurch mosque that he first encountered radical Islam.”

As some have mentioned, it is illegal to keep it. Here are a list of rehabbers in La, I encourage you to contact one in your area—if you’re in La—and pass it along or at least follow their suggestions. They are cute but are a good bit of work to raise, especially if any medical issues arise. I’ve had to clip teeth, treat infected eyes, pneumonia, etc. Please keep it away from domestic pets. Squirrels raised with cats and dogs—“oh, isn’t it cute” Facebook posts—cannot be released since they’ve lost fear of natural predators. To keep a full grown squirrel caged for life is a cruel act. Thanks for saving the little guy, here is the link.

Caitlin really resembles Maci, from 16 and Pregnant and the original Teen Mom. Makes me think women who look like that are prone to poor decisions.
I’m a big fan of hers. One of my favorite things she’s said is that if women had run humanity we’d still be living in grass huts. There’d probably be fewer wars, less competition, etc. but women would still be dying in childbirth since men have improved medicine(and built bridges, hospitals,...) That notion also jives with her belief that the huge mistake of modern feminism is seeing men as the enemy. Men have sought to protect women and obviously the genders worked together through all of history.

( I’m a woman and TOTALLY agree with the grass huts theory.)

Was supposed to start on 25th I think, for some reason they pushed it up.

Dirty John on Bravo

Just watched, listened to the podcast so curious about the show. Good cast, Connie Britton as Debra and Eric Bana as John. Pretty well done, Britton makes Debra sympathetic—I found her naïveté/idiocy insufferable in the podcast and viewed her as a gold digger with her 4 (and with John, 5) ex husbands. Tami Taylor can save just about anyone. I’ll keep watching.
Unique spellings and made-up names used to bother me. I try to be more live and let live now BUT I find that I kind of judge them socio-economically.
Once I was getting my haircut and there was a girl working there—sweeping up hair—about 17-18, visibly pregnant. One of the patrons asked her about the name and she said “Oliver” and lamented the fact that there were no creative spellings available for that name. I was happy for young Oliver, I imagine he’ll have his own set of challenges without being saddled with extra vowels or “f’s”.
Election

Book’s not bad, just much more somber. Movie is dark comic gold.

I loved them. If you're into audiobooks, you should check that out. Steve Pacey reads them, does amazing voices and perfectly times his voice for Abercrombie's gallows humor.

Also, it stars Newman at his handsomest! The only legit competition IMO, Mel Gibson in Road Warrior.
Agree on Swan Song and Am Gods as mini- series and Preacher would make a badass HBO series. Would love to see Joe Abercrombie' s First Law trilogy on the big screen.

both a judge and a lawyer have told me it is one of the most accurate courtroom movies from a law perspective
