It was so much easier to research an article using @LexisNexis twenty years ago than relying on the Web, especially now that @Google has gone to hell. Is @LexisNexis still unaffordable?

I tried posting a couple of tweets using @elonmusk’s preferred method of putting the link in the replies–and damned if they didn’t do a bit better than expected. Cumbersome, annoying and pointless but never argue with a man who buys his algorithms by the barrel.

Link to the @washingtonpost story: https://t.co/vYsl2Oc9iV “Once, an officer reported approaching [suspect] as he lay facedown in Bready Park, sober but distraught that he had nowhere to go and asking to be deported so he could go home.” Might have been best for all concerned.

Suspect arrested for rape on popular Washington bike trail. You have to get to the 13th paragraph of WaPo’s story to learn he’s an undocumented Honduran who’d been arrested multiple times before–but for some reason ICE never filed detainers with local police. [Link in replies]

Andrew Day lays out clearly the optimistic view of Trump and the Ukraine war. Points to the pitfalls–especially “post-war security guarantees for Ukraine.” Also requires a near-heroic level of competence on Trump’s part. But it doesn’t seem at all implausible. https://t.co/iEjARhH2Q9
