Friend: I wonder if the Gulf Coast 90-degree heat and humidity affected the #Bears.
Me: I'd say they were more likely affected by zero running game, a rookie QB still figuring out his role, an overrated HC who should have been let go after last season, and of course, owners who are inept and/or don't care.
Friend: The McCaskeys care. They don't know what they're doing.
Me: If they cared, they would sell the team to someone who does know what they're doing.

Was that you driving the black Cybertruck in my kid's school drop-off line?

Love that book! I've read it twice and the only reason I haven't read it again is because, as you pointed out, it's kind of a doorstop. 🤣
Clarke wrote a collection of short stories called Ladies of Grace Adieu, which is sort of like a companion piece to JS&MN. Similar vibe and style, without the 800 page time commitment. Definitely worth checking out.

Donald Trump, OTOH, hates pets. That's pretty weird.
