First the hard left takes virulent offense at opinions contrary to its world view (in the name of tolerance of course) while the hard right then takes virulent offense (also in the name of tolerance) at the hard left having taken virulent offense to opinions contrary to its worldview. And so it goes in the continuing cycle with the poor boater not being able to get out of the whirlpool. The majority of normal people (the boater) not giving a rats ass about microagressions, wokeness, or the free speech rights of Laura Ingraham at Berkley just shake their heads and try to navigate the treacherous currents.

The shit going on at the NYT, Philly Inquirer, etc should piss everyone off. But Conor tells us that the NYT is just a business, and the Stulzbergers, or whatever their name is, have the right to fire whomever they want (as long as said person isn’t transgender I guess, lol).
I'm sure he will post next, "I'm not surprised that Ned used the word 'spade.'"
I just don’t care that much.
That, and tonight, this...an Italian Chardonnay, of all things. Who'd a thought? (This post doesn't pass Lehigh's "Three Bottle Recommendation" test. But, so far, so good. It's not inexpensive [in the high 30's], but I may have to get another bottle anyway. We'll see how the bottle finishes.)

James Suckling-Umbria, Italy - "This is the Batard Montrachet of Italy with such and amazing depth and compression of beautiful fruit and chalk. Dried mango and dried green papaya. Full body, yet tight and focused. Energized acidity. Vibrance."
