OK, I read the big Atlantic article about the decline of sex, and I came away even more convinced that porn is the culprit.https://t.co/elk9Qddnk5

We all knew McCabe would take aim at Trump in his book, but his contempt for Sessions is staggering. Depicts him as addled, fixated on immigrants, racist. My review of the McCabe book in WaPo https://t.co/nEMmQXvJ07

House Democratic leaders have a rebellion in their ranks. And there’s no easy way to quash it.
House Democrats have repeatedly faced surprise Republican floor attacks since taking control of the chamber, part of a bid by the GOP to target their most vulnerable members and fracture the party. Just six weeks in, the GOP effort has been an astonishing success — dividing Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her top deputies and pitting members of the freshmen class against each other.

The House voted Thursday night to approve a border security deal that prevents a new government shutdown in a 300-128 vote.
The vote sets up President Trump to sign the legislation — and to declare a national emergency as a way of getting more federal funds for his wall on the Mexican border.

I was in a bar a few years ago and there were six guys and six girls at a table, and every girl was on her phone. I walked up to them and said something like they were destroying the breeding potential if the planet. Even now, people, including me, are on their phones instead of *there*. Relationships are born partially of relief from boredom, but if you have a game or web page or email or whatsapp, you're scratching that itch, however poorly. Go to a cafe now, and few strangers talk to each other.
There was something about Henry James a hundred or more years ago going to Europe to practice insincere flirting. I don't think we properly flirt anymore either - we're all wonkish about serious stuff, but not "my, you look lovely" stuff except perhaps the real sleazeballs. Going from 0 to 80 in 2.3 secs may be great for a Tesla, but not for human relationships. And then to be told you can't hit on someone from work? Where else do you meet people with any consistency or quality in a 70 hour workweek? And yes, elevator matchups become less likely the more condemned. No, I don't really blame porn much.
