The right can’t have a serious conversation with itself because of its reality problem. Don’t drag the left into it.

It’s a perfectly good word with a respectful heritage and can’t be blamed for being used by current troglodytes in power.
Also, starting next year, The World Science Fiction Society will be handing out a Lodestar Award each year for best young adult SFF book.

This has Mike McLintock written all over it.
It’s also a lovely song by Canadian recording artist Sarah Harmer.

That’s not a bug, that’s the primary feature of the Trump administration. No one with actual power wanted him to lead. They just needed a puppet and no one acts like an empty shell with an arm up their ass better than Trump.
The lodestar is what a lodestone points to.

That looks like a Chesterfield. (Canuck humour for non-Canucks.)

I’ll have to take your word for it…
Also, if it’s Canadian, it’s ineligible. We need to see it’s long form… proof of production?

Sadly, most Chesterfields in Canada are not Canadian-made. (UK Chesterfields too I’d imagine.) That “free trade” thing, hurrah!

In an ideal world, yes. But Polaris in’t exactly true north, and compasses point towards magnetic north, which is even further off.

One interesting angle: the identity of this official is clearly going to be a newsworthy story. Are the Times’ own reporters now going to have to refrain from pursuing that story given that the editorial board has granted a promise of anonymity, or is it enough that the handful of people at the paper who already know aren’t the ones to share that information with the reporting division?

Despite being a fictional character, having a speech impediment, and demonstrating pretty severe anger management issues, Donald Duck would be a great alternative to Trump.
- He’s a military veteran (both Army and Navy!)
- He knows how to work with both the 1% (Uncle Scrooge, who’s not just the 1% but is the richest duck in the world!) and the 99% (he’s held many different jobs, some of which would have been right at home on Mike Rowe’s show Dirty Jobs.)
- He stepped up to raise his three nephews after their mother disappeared.
