it’s a core official act under conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority.

When you’re the President, they let you do it. You can do anything.

pour encourager les autres. Congresspeople who “do the right thing” and pay a political price for it must be seen to be rewarded with lucrative post-politics careers. $5M is nothing compared to the loot she’s delivered. modest compensation for past work.

what if instead of skeet or toot or tweet, we just called each post a treat?

but you want beliefs and realities to coincide. it'd be good if we permitted to build in ways that reasonably can be permanent, and let those feelings encourage investment that will actually work out.

shouldn't Elon Musk have immunity for his Acts too?

is it accurate that, despite all the impediments to building in general, when a disaster destroys a person's home, a right to rebuild what was lost is grandfathered in? if that is accurate, isn't it a terrible idea?

so, we could build say, a new Chongqing at Malibu in such a way it wouldn’t burn down every decade or two?

is there any version of urbanity that could be built and would not burn in fire-prone areas of Southern California, or would any form of human habitation burn under the conditions nature presents (and humans exacerbate) there?

they deny it exists, but climate change serves an essential function for the right. it proves progress only makes things worse and we need to go back to their mythologized past. the disasters are caused by lesbians, they say. they have blessed themselves with abundant disasters.

one thing about canada, greenland, panama, the gulf of armenia — we’re talking about shit HE says again, rather than shit Elon says. which may be more important than greenland to him.
