A few blog glitches today — 5 Comments

  1. Those things happen.
    I tried a few different options and then assumed it would subside eventually.
    And here we are.

  2. I was able to load the main page a couple of times, and could see that people had commented, but could not see their comments or enter any of my own. I was beginning to feel discriminated against. 🙂 Or maybe it was my browser (Mac Safari).

  3. After 3 tries, with long comment on the clipboard, I went to Kling’s blog and started commenting there, overwriting my support for your Jan 6 phrase:
    retrospective validation.
    “(a) to spark more January 6th type demonstrations or violence that will retrospectively validate Biden’s words and justify more crackdowns and more denunciations of the right.”
    I keep thinking of it as to retrospectively justify the Trump hate, but retrospectively validate their prior, unjustified Trump hate might be more accurate.

    It’s great to read a blog with an interesting phrase “retrospectively validate”, which seems taken more from Big Pharma a drug testing.

    As compared to “retrospective justification”.

    Trump haters think Jan 6 protest both validates and justifies their prior Trump hate, but especially retrospectively justifies it.

  4. Mike K @ 3:28: what you said. Time for me to hit the donation button for this invaluable blog resource.
