On the anime front
I watched "From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman".
A character driven storyline, where the main character isn't seeking fame or glory.
Many of the regular tropes except that the character is not a lech.
A wonderful series. Can't wait for more. www.imdb.com/title/tt3534...

We'll, it's definitely the shingles vaccine kicking my butt today. Usual pain and swelling in the injection site, overall aches and pain. And topped off with a 100.9°F fever. Glad I don't have to take this one again. What was I thinking getting this on a Wednesday?

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.
There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP
Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

@maddow.msnbc.com If the Trump administration is able to prevail in this question of birth right citizenship, how would Americans prove that they are citizens? Currently, Americans can show their birth certificate. If they win, that would no longer be proof of their citizenship.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
