OR AT LEAST VARIOUS THREE-LETTER BANDITTI ARE:  We are the enemy.

The enemy needs an enema.

I DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU GUYS, BUT IF ALL HOPE REALLY WERE LOST, I PRAY I CAN GO OUT LIKE FABRIZIO QUATTROCCHI:  Running With Matches.

I don’t know what the equivalent of that is for the situation the country is in, but I know right now not all hope is lost, and the best we can do is force them to obviously fraud in front of G-d and everyone, instead of giving them a seeming willing majority. Because as the late great Jerry Pournelle often reminded me: Despair is a sin. It’s also a liar. Half the time there’s no reason to despair.

AND SOME OF US ARE VERY BAD AT TEAMWORK, BUT WITH THE RIGHT TEAM IT’S MAGICAL:  Teamwork.

Imposing it everywhere and on everything is a disaster. Same for Lean Manufacturing. And really, anything else.

DO.NOT. MESS. WITH. PEOPLE’S. WORDS:   Goosebumps Books Getting Woke Edits Without Author Approval.

Do you want a pen through the eye? Because this is how you get a pen through the eye. We authors might be soft as pillows. Until you touch our words. And the readers are no slouches, either.

FROM SARAH A. HOYT: BARBARELLA, THE CENTER CANNOT HOLD, #1

#CommissionEarned

A note: for reasons known only to the publisher, this was put in erotica comics. That’s false advertising in both directions. There are suggestions of lovemaking, but nothing is shown, not even full naked breasts. Pfui. PG-13. At worst. In this issue the worst is …. kissing.
