The top picture offers a truly superhuman depth of field. Is this how eagles see the world?; 3/4/23, 12:03 PM
wendybar said...: Now Merrick Garland is wasting time (and more of our money) in Ukraine. Probably looking for any escaped "White Supremacists" they are still searching for from the Capitol.; 3/4/23, 12:11 PM
gilbar said...: remember instamatics? Back in the '60's, my dad used a 35mm kodak, and his pictures were So Much better than the crap Most people shot. Then, about 1975, he got an Olympus SLR, and i thought it was the bee's knees.
Now, every retired law professor that i know of, can take pictures that are Orders of Magnitude better than anything your money could buy back then.; 3/4/23, 12:27 PM
wild chicken said...: Ahhh...got Althouse format back to normal by uninstalling a Chrome update.

Facebook mobile us whack too. Probably the same issue.

Why do devs always have to "improve the experience" so badly?; 3/4/23, 12:43 PM

Superb.; 3/4/23, 12:51 PM
David Duffy said...: The white dome cloud rising above the burning orange sunset causes me to think the place has been nuked.; 3/4/23, 1:51 PM

rehajm said...: The game changer in iPhone 14 is the macro photography. Way better than any digital SLR I’ve owned…

Maybe there’s nothing small in WI that’s photogenic?; 3/4/23, 3:05 PM
wendybar said...: Golly Gee....just another toxic mess in the land of TRANSPORTATION. A massive gas tanker crashed in Maryland exploding into a fireball, and setting residents homes ablaze. I'm sure Joe and Pete will get on that in a month of so...if they aren't too busy giving more money to Ukraine.

Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this son of New York said...: "the fight for Bakhmut will change the trajectory of our war for independence and for freedom." - Zelensky

We are throwing good money after bad and sacrificing untold thousands of lives in a lost cause. And what was the cause? That Donbas and Crimea should not enjoy the kind of autonomy that Quebec enjoys within Canada? That the Russians and the Ukrainians could not go their separate ways peacefully, like the Czechs and the Slovaks?; 3/4/23, 4:34 PM
narciso said...: the goal is the postmodern transnational social credit system that operates in the rest of ukraine, bakhmut is too far from the ukrainian supply lies, why not pick a more defensible objective,; 3/4/23, 4:54 PM
rhhardin said...: Amazon Prime Video promotion: Sayen 2023 Be the first to review this item

In the forests of southern Chile, a young Mapuche woman, Sayen, sets out to hunt down the mercenaries who murdered her grandmother. Utilizing her training, she is able to survive and turn the tables on these interlopers. She must choose between walking away, or protecting not only her own but also other indigenous groups from the sinister corporation that threatens their lands and; 3/4/23, 5:05 PM

Inga said...: “I am your justice, I am your retribution”

No more courts? This man is ruled by revenge as only a malignant narcissistic megalomaniac could. And the audience cheered.

The man is crazier than he ever was. This is why Achilles and Drago worship him. Sick.; 3/4/23, 5:07 PM
Old and slow said...: I have recently started reading Haruki Murakami's book Novelist As A Vocation book. Very early on in the book he mentions novelists garnering readers. Of course I thought of Althouse and her pet peeve. I did a double take, "did he really just say "garnering"?", because I know Althouse is a big fan of his.; 3/4/23, 5:29 PM
Mason G said...: "A massive gas tanker crashed in Maryland exploding into a fireball, and setting residents homes ablaze."

Pipelines don't crash and explode.

Just sayin'.; 3/4/23, 6:21 PM
Chuck said...: George and Kellyanne Conway announce that they are in the final stages of an amicable divorce. They thank friends and extended family for their love and support, and ask for privacy as they do their best to provide for their children.

A perfectly understandable request that any normal adult might respect; sentiments that any psychologically stable human would understand.

Naturally, Donald Trump does not understand, and is incapable of normalcy or any kind of restraint. He went on a classically Trumpian rant on "Truth Social."

Trump's karma will be like Nagasaki.

When he is indicted (effectively ending their transactional marriage), and Melania divorces him, I want to be there to kick Trump in the balls.

When Trump appears for trial, I want to be there to yell, "LOCK HIM UP!"

When Trump is sentenced, I want to be there to wish him luck in his new life as a "Prison Bride."

When Trump is buried near the first tee at Bedminster (if it is still even a Trump property by then), I want to play a round and piss on his grave.; 3/4/23, 6:51 PM
hawkeyedjb said...: "When Trump is buried near the first tee at Bedminster... I want to play a round and piss on his grave."

That's the kind of grace, kindness and generosity that will elevate our national life after Donald Trump is gone.; 3/4/23, 7:14 PM
Drago said...: Russia Collusion Truther and Hillary/FBI Hoax Dossier Dead Ender Inga: "The man is crazier than he ever was. This is why Achilles and Drago worship him. Sick."

It has become impossible to distinguish between Inga and Flip-side Inga (HBTPFH) posts.

There is a reason for that.; 3/4/23, 7:18 PM
Dr Weevil said...: 'Chuck' needs to look in a mirror. He seems perfectly fine with wishing horrible things on someone he considers a nasty human being, and expressing these wishes out loud and in great detail. But he doesn't think Trump is allowed to say bad things about someone (George Conway, not Kellyanne, obviously) who said vile things about him. A bit of a double standard, isn't it?; 3/4/23, 7:26 PM
Old and slow said...: Jesus Chuck, you need professional help.; 3/4/23, 7:32 PM
Drago said...: LLR-Democratical Chuck at 6:51pm gives a pretty good impression of someone with an Histrionic Personality Disorder.

Thats probably why he is a democratical.; 3/4/23, 7:38 PM
Drago said...: Inga: "The man is crazier than he ever was. This is why Achilles and Drago worship him. Sick."

Speaking of sick, do you maintain your earlier expressed opinion that grown men showering with their adolescent daughters is "perfectly normal"?

Or is your approval of that limited only to Joe Biden's actions with his daughter?; 3/4/23, 7:45 PM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...: Yeah Chuck - your TDS is critical. Seek help.
I don't hate Trump at all. I just think he's a used car salesman. and a loo loo oooo zzzzer.
"like never before!"; 3/4/23, 9:47 PM
Josephbleau said...: I bypass Mr. Chuck, yet he is a flaming A hole. A spectacularly flaming A hole. An A hole we would be much better without, yet the violator persists in intruding.; 3/5/23, 3:10 AM
Chuck said...: Cracks me up, how people think my comment was so vile. Practically every line of it hyperlinked with the literal inspiration coming directly from Trump.; 3/5/23, 7:48 AM
Old and slow said...: If we could all just have the self restraint to ignore the troll, he would be much less active.; 3/5/23, 7:57 AM
Iman said...: Chuck knows the ins and outs of prison life.

Please continue sharing your life experiences, Chuck!; 3/5/23, 10:19 AM
