Tonight I have my first meeting with the cover designer for the followup to the book below. Time is short, so I'm trying to figure out a reasonable timeframe to finish Proof of Devolution: The Long Hard Fall of Elon Musk. It'll be the most bracing history of the man ever written. In the meantime:

Anyone curious why Judge Merchan couldn’t at least have considered imposing a 3-year jail term suspended until noon on Jan 20, 2029, when the defendant would again become merely Citizen Trump? Why no concrete consequences at all? Surely not because he might try to hold onto office indefinitely!

Killing a russian general without injuring a single civilian is wrong and violates rules of war (according to Keith Kellogg). But striking ukrainian cities and civilians with missiles every fucking night is a new norm already. How did we get here? What kind of world is it? #ukrainianview
