The Geek's Raven
[An excerpt, with thanks to Marcus Bales]

Once upon a midnight dreary,
fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat there, doing spreadsheets:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a floppy from the drawer.
Typing with a steady hand, I then invoked the SAVE command
But got instead a reprimand: it read "Abort, Retry, Ignore".

SCOTUS is about to take away Trump's right to make tariffs

Doanld Trump likes the word "tariffs", and likes to say it, as much as possible. He also likes to apply tariffs, but is somewhat less inclined to do this, than to just say the word, particularly if there are economic consequences to himself. Currently, Trump wants to try to use tariffs as a way to force EU nations to submit to his wish to purchase Greenland. Thus, Trump is using tariffs as a military weapon, without the consent of Congress, to try to achieve territorial expansion. Obviously, if the SCOTUS justices have any interest in the US Constitution at all, they have no interest whatsoever in this approach! We can therefore expect SCOTUS shortly to declare Trump's tariffs totally illegal and unconstitutional, and a profound threat to the peace of the world.
