"Joe Kennedy being responsible in wooing two of his son's brides as they were; the intense galvanizing of brothers for greater change and influence in culture stemming from JFK'S assassination; a sad childhood of Ted being different, less competitive, less acceptable in fitness, being body shamed, being more sensitive, being teased by his parents and having to live up to his brothers' reputation when not built that." — Nov 13, 2025 04:55PM

“Vladimir allegedly noting that “drinking is the joy of all Rus’. We cannot exist without that pleasure.” (Some stereotypes have a long pedigree, it seems.)”

“It turns out that our waking verbal mind converses with our sleeping one. Fortunately, this doesn’t produce Oedipal wish fulfillments.”

“With our defenses down and our civilized propriety turned off while we slept, he thought, our demons came out and romped around, revealing our desires.
