But, I did forget how hypersensitive Larry is, ready to take offense when nine was ever given.

This line best summarizes UNO’s entire existence here.

Bizarre,  in terms of how obsessed he is with Larry (then,  when Larry notices, accuses him of "paranoia") and relentlessly seeks to tutor Larry on "being better" while remaining himself a troll playing endless game of gotcha.   

I don’t get the obsession... it just seems so desperate.

There's the paranoia again. As fed by others, too.

Do a search on the number of times you've personally insulted me, and for no good reason.

When you're done, look in the mirror and ask who really is the obsessed one.


It ain't me, son.

Twitter is not on the masthead of The New York Times. But Twitter has become its ultimate editor. As the ethics and mores of that platform have become those of the paper, the paper itself has increasingly become a kind of performance space. Stories are chosen and told in a way to satisfy the narrowest of audiences, rather than to allow a curious public to read about the world and then draw their own conclusions. I was always taught that journalists were charged with writing the first rough draft of history. Now, history itself is one more ephemeral thing molded to fit the needs of a predetermined narrative.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Quote
The district attorney's office said it would agree to not enforce the subpoena seeking eight years of Trump's tax returns and financial records from his long-time accounting firm Mazars USA until July 27, or if Trump files a new lawsuit it won't seek to enforce the subpoena until seven days after that court makes a decision.

Both sides also agreed to an expedited schedule, which if approved by the court, could mean the motions would be completed in the case by mid-August.

A hearing in the matter is scheduled before Marrero Thursday morning.

We don’t even need to see the info before the election. The fight to suppress them is all one needs to know.
