Hate is a tell.
There is no good person in this world who ever lived who needs you to hate anything or anybody.
Be aware when someone is trying to get you to hate something. They’re not doing it to help you. They’re doing it to use you.

Terrific words from Mr. Kasparov.

All right… when it’s Eclipse day, time to pick a side.
Is the Moon rude and pushy, or did the Sun need to be taken down a peg?

Wow what a game so far. Tough that Caitlin had that little lapse of attention on her dribble to give SC a buffer to their slim lead, but still, what a half.
These athletes are *good* and playing *hard*.

Hey puzzle-loving Spoutans (looking your way, #thursdaynightpuzzlegang )
The NYT editing team has given me a publication date for my crossword - Sunday, April 28. They’ve improved a lot with their editing and I’m excited to share the work.

This is of course true. Yet…
There’s a hill I may yet die on: “Apology” is overrated. “Acknowledgement” is the good stuff.
Refusal to apologize is refusal to acknowledge wrongdoing. Fake apologies that also avoid acknowledgment are every bit as common.
Apology overrated. Acknowledgement good.

Good on Rep. Swalwell to remind us that hypocrisy is a tell.
It’s how those who want to dominate over you demonstrate that they can.

Republican policies bring on the most pretzel-twisted questions.
For example, what is the best way to arm a frozen embryo? How do we get an AR-15 into those unformed hands?

They’re holding Smirnov in a facility in Pahrump, Nevada.
I’ve been to Pahrump.
Honestly, that may be punishment enough.

BUT!
I’ll pretend I have a droid and my droid is Artoo-DeTHREE and we’re having a great “beep-baloop-bleep-beep-baloop” conversation to pass the chore time.
That middle “bleep” was Artoo cussing. He’s got a fuckin’ potty mouth.

2 Threaded Spouts
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a baking fail. Here’s one!
This was last week, making a cake for a family birthday. I think I both underbaked the sponge and tried to de-pan them too soon. The result was cake layers that just don’t hold together.
It looks better than it was. #SpoutibleBakes
