Victoria: The bourguignon was just a little tough.Waiter: Maybe the way you are eating your jaws are getting tired.Toddy: Speaking of overworked jaws, why don't you treat yours to a sabbatical and fetch me a wine list?[holding up a glass]Victoria: This is all they have.Toddy: This? The last time I saw a specimen like this, they had to shoot the horse![irritated]Waiter: How lucky can you get? In one evening a Rockefeller... and a Groucho Marx.Toddy: Oh, they didn't shoot a real horse... just a costume with two waiters in it.Waiter: I shall think of a sharp retort while I am getting your roast chicken.Toddy: It's a wise man who knows when to throw in the towel.Waiter: And it is a moron who gives advice to a horse's arse.

the pseudo-Shakespearean dialog is really well-written... or the screenwriter stole a lot of phrases from Shakespeare's corpus that I don't recall hearing before.

The main character (actress playing Lady MacBeth) calls ghost-Shakespeare and his play "full of shit" and his reply is "'Tis fine manure in which good players flourish admirably."

"In fairness to Apple, not only are they perfectly within their rights to issue a cease and desist… but they have been super-nice and polite about the project saying things like “…it’s clear you’ve poured a great deal of care and passion into your work. We genuinely appreciate your enthusiasm for—and admiration of—the original Macintosh.”. They could have requested that the whole open source project be taken down from GitHub but are currently only requesting we stop selling the assembled units. So anyone can still build one themselves for their own use."https://zeppelin.flights/@sixcolors/114984498135124388

"They call Portland a war zone because joy gives them hives. Show them a Pride flag and they start convulsing like someone unplugged their moral life support. They don’t fear violence; they fetishize it. What they fear is happiness, because happy people don’t need saviors or strongmen. They see laughter and call it an uprising. They see dancing and call it decay. They see freedom and reach for tear gas. What they crave isn’t order; it’s obedience. Not peace, but punishment. They want the whole country as joyless, constipated, and spiritually malnourished as they are, sitting in the dark, clutching their guns, baptizing their bitterness, and calling it patriotism."Because joy terrifies them. Laughter cannot be licensed. Dancing does not pay taxes. Nudity refuses to wear shame. They shake at the sight of people who have nothing to hide."And that is why Portland matters."https://wandering.shop/@susankayequinn/115379680744711111

@inthehands @futurebird Yeah Too much money is sloshing around looking for things to invest in and ordinary people suffer when profit-taking is aimed at them. For example corporations buying real-estate, leading to higher rents and unaffordable purchase prices.Taxation is the only way to reduce this excess money and it needs to targeted carefully. Unfortunately the targets use their money to avoid existing taxes and prevent new taxes from being passed.

"French intelligence, working with Ukraine, deliberately fed false high-level intelligence to Trump’s regime to test whether it would leak. That information quickly surfaced in Russian channels, confirming their worst fears. As a result, France and other European services have effectively cut the United States out of critical intelligence flows related to Ukraine and broader security matters. The conclusion among allies is chillingly direct: information shared with Trump cannot be trusted to stay out of Vladimir Putin’s hands."https://www.meidasplus.com/p/sunday-afternoon-news-updates-11826

All the politicians cared about was getting elected. The gun-nuts were a tool which those politicians can discard now.
