E. Jean Carroll sued Trump in civil court for rape, and won.

He lost the rape case, but it was a civil case so well done. We’re all impressed with your pedantry.

No I stimulate GLP-1 the good old fashioned way, by eating a balanced diet.

The thing to appreciate when attempting it is that mid-30s Pynchon was inventing his own English grammar. Some sentences are a full page long and it will challenge your memory.

He always seemed like a more modern take on James Joyce or something (coming from someone who’s never read Pynchon)
