Last thought on No Kings coverage:

If major papers wanted a stunning angle, how about the fact that 5-7 *million* Americans mobilized and I didn’t see 1 significant act of violence by protesters

That is a *remarkable* achievement for a contemporary social movement in a highly polarized society

one of my absolute favorite things is when musicians lose their shit at Republicans for appropriating their songs and I am particularly delighted to see Kenny Loggins joining the list
Verrrry Dectective Dan (THE GOOD GUYS) vibes from Bradley Wiggins in THE DIPLOMAT s3ep4. Very amusing, for a drama.

Is this my beautiful house? Is this my beautiful life?
Two books for spooky season:
COFFIN MOON, Keith Rosson: Best modern vampire story ever (although it's set in the 70s).
THE TWISTED ONES, by T. Kingfisher: It lures you in with chatty good humor (especially about NPR Pledge Week) and a lovely dog...then slams the door and bites you in the dark.

The thing is, until you have personally experienced this kind of targeted operation it sounds like tinfoil hat or the ravings of someone who has lost their grip on reality.

And once it happens, almost no one will believe you if you so choose to confide. You end up alone, frozen

Sleep is a biological necessity, and sleep deprivation has real physical, psychological, and social consequences that need to be taken seriously. The way our society treats it as slothful to sleep according to natural rhythms (including midday naps and variant chronotypes like night owls) is evil.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

“There’s no way I’m bending the knee I have left for a king in America.”

Damn. Just … damn.
Retired Army Sgt. Brian Wofford spoke to me this morning at the Oklahoma City #NoKings protest. Didn’t expect him to be carrying his DD214 so I asked some warmup questions like when he got out and whether his injury was service-related.

He paused while describing the car bomb in Iraq to say this:

The kid in this article reckons a Roblox user uploaded CSA images, and given Roblox doesn’t have the capacity for uploading images except in Creator Studio, I suspect he is full of shit and the ABC didn’t bother to check. Jernalism.

I see all those anti-solar fuckwads on Facebook and have a proper chuckle. Our house currently has two fridges running, the TV, several lights on, the spa heating and filtering, washing machine doing a load, and the clothes dryer on.

5.8kw ph being consumed and all of it free from the sun.

if you put enough olive oil in a dish it stops being unhealthy and actually becomes healthier because the olive oil now counts as one of your five a day

Public Health England doesn't want you to know this
Pineapple wasn’t even mentioned iirc.
Yes even though they tipped the tea into the harbour.
You responded to comments about tipping by talking about racism. I'm not the one making that false equivalence here.
