Hey! Taylor Swift Made Me Cookies!

That proves she’s a down-home girl, right?

What? They’re political and old? I don’t get your point. Taylor Swift made me cookies!

Some dude posted this under that title. I can’t attest to its authenticity, so here it is.

She wasn’t half bad to begin with, but damn!

The Magic of Media Collusion

Excellently-written article dissecting Harris and her handlers. And introduces a new, perfect phrase to describe her.

Why Can’t Harris Answer a Simple Question?
washingtonexaminer | October 11, 2024 | David Harsanyi

… Harris is a thermonuclear platitude dispenser. Few people in American history have expended so many words to say so little.

Her turns of phrase are often so cartoonishly ludicrous they should be used in college textbooks to explain what a “tautology” is to students.

“I grew up believing that children of the community are children of the community.”

“It’s time for us to do what we have been doing, and that time is every day.”

Normal people don’t talk this way. Harris does. All the time.

In any event, let’s just say extemporaneous speaking isn’t Harris’s strong suit, either. The presidential candidate has an uncanny ability to respond to straightforward questions in circuitous, mind-bending arrays of irrelevant non-sequiturs.

 … if 2024 is really the most pivotal election in the republic’s history — or, as Harris might say, a “moment in time in which we exist and are present, and to be able to contextualize it, to understand where we exist in the history and in the moment as it relates not only to the past but the future” — why don’t we have candidates who reflect the significance of the moment?  

Because if you carefully listen to Harris’s words, you are confronted with a vapid, political creation in way over her head. Though, alas, if history is any guide, she has all the qualifications we expect of a president.

Guy on the right looks for all the world like he’s saying, “Get in the trunk.”

Straight Line of the Day: What’s In Njørl’s Wallet?

Dozens of Ancient Silver Coins Discovered in Viking ‘Wallet’ on Isle of Man
Breitbart News | October 3, 2024 | Olivia Rondeau

A 1,000-year-old Viking “wallet” containing dozens of silver coins was recently discovered by British historians on the Isle of Man, officials announced Monday.

… around 36 whole and fragmented coins …

What is even more interesting is that the coins were minted under multiple different Irish and English rulers, with the majority from the reign of Edward the Confessor (1042-1066 AD), as well as English kings Aethelred II (978-1016 AD) and Canute (1016-1035 AD).
