Finally found some food I like at ATL in the C concourse. Bantam and Biddy is pretty decent. I had a chicken biscuit where the biscuit was a little claggy, but only learned after that the kitchen is gluten free! So for GF chicken biscuit it was quite good. And some pretty good collars, too.

Thanks! Looking forward to visiting Cola for the first time ever!

Gonna go try some mustard-based sauce for the first time ever. Got a place you like in Cola? Let me know!

Yes! 100%. Getting to hear about his life & his personal anecdotes about his photography was incredible. On a very different note, I recall that you like BBQ. If you're fond of mustard-based sauce, there are some good joints in Columbia. Been a while since I lived there, so my insights are limited.

Just had the smoothest landing ever on this flight getting into Atlanta. I could barely tell we touched the ground; it was the sound that told me it happened more than anything else. Wow!

Six former surgeons general appointed by every President since George HW Bush warn that RFK Jr. is endangering the health of the nation, calling his policies/positions a “profound, immediate + unprecedented threat”

Opinion | Six surgeons general: It’s our duty to warn the nation about RFK Jr.

We took an oath to declare dangers when we found them. We’re doing that again today.

While bad, worse is the fact that this sheriff is helping ICE arrest people through their 287g program. (Some of these southern raids are not getting much attention.) The video shows deputies beating up a man on the side of the road.

This picture is from 1992 in LA and using it in this post and story shows terrible news judgment.

"President Donald Trump and his top aides are using the word 'insurrection' more frequently to describe anti-ICE protests in places like Portland," writes Zachary B. Wolf. https://cnn.it/4pWYmzr

Agreed. Curious to hear more about how these regional conferences worked and how they didn't.

🎃😱Slaybell Romero loves Halloween👻👹 @maybell.bsky.social · 13h

Officially, for giving advice, but I imagine there were screeners and meetings and horsetrading happening in the halls and elsewhere. An example of one of these: www.nyls.edu/events/aals-...

AALS Pre-Faculty Recruitment Conference (Northeast Region) - New York Law School

It looks like the regional conferences were all billed about providing advice, but we all know that sometimes screeners and stuff can happen at those, too. If you feel more comfortable, go ahead and DM me.

I know that AALS had regional hiring conferences this year in contrast to the giant one that used to happen in DC. Did hiring committees actually go to any of them? Did entry level candidates show up? Were there in person screeners like before? Where did they take place? #lawprofs #lawprofhiring

Speeding on big empty roads in my GT with the windows rolled down (it’s not that hot; it’s 90 degrees and muggy, no big deal) listening to loud ass 70s Tom Petty while headed out to play pool.

I’ve entered my middle aged dirtbag era.

Getting very excited to take this baby Bolex out for my first time shooting on regular 8 this week! It still tuns like a dream and is also tiny and cute!

I’ll take any advice I can get!

But also, jeez, Fallon continues to be the most annoying presence on late nite TV.

Well, I think the surgical scar from my recent hand surgery is keloid-ing, so that’s fun. Many thanks to my mom and grandma for these awesome genes.

I recently went to a farmer’s market in Colorado where someone was pushing tallow as lip balm and lotion, so I figured someone had to be selling this. But creamsicle flavored, even?
