Jazz helps.

If you're in NYC & can afford a ticket, these guys are excellent. They have student discounted tickets too in a SRO area of the main room.

I've been a patron of Smoke for 10 yrs now, but haven't been as much since the Before Times (when I could more afford it).

Perfect summary.

(b/c I'm in tech) I always say, 'read the documentation'.
But in this case, I would also point ppl here, b/c it's a summary of the documentation:

That looks delicious! And, it’s not sad that you made your own cake! (I’ve done so for myself in the past). Also, I’ve been thinking about strawberry cake lately πŸ“πŸ“πŸ“

SCOTUS is telling us that it has completely signed on to the project of a second Trump administration, which is establishing an elected autocracy.

So, I guess encouraging a mob to hang Pence is also an "official act" and immune.

Encouraging a coup to storm the Capitol to halt official Congressional business to certify the election? SCOTUS: Totally legal & an official Presidential act. Fuck this.

Dammit. 🀬 I had just listened to the latest Strict Scrutiny podcast & at that time they had just mentioned that previous cases couldn't be re-litigated/that the Loper decision wasn't retroactive & I had said, "whew, good!" smdh.

They hate higher ed, advanced degrees, & experts so much. They continue to try delegitimize knowledge unless it fits within their narrow, christo-fascist belief system. They're so anti-critical thinking too. They want the dumbing-down of the America so they can control facts vs. fiction.

I think the Loper decision that overruled Chevron deference supports the Schedule F changes in admin agency positions in Project 2025...where they fire ppl who have expertise in their field of study, & replace them w/ppl who are loyal to Drumpf & will carry out his policies.

The commentariat needs to go for a walk and take some deep breaths. The idea of ditching an incumbent president w an astoundingly impressive track record in the midst of a booming economy is preposterous. Focus on the authoritarian felon threatening our democracy. And maybe freak out about SCOTUS. πŸ™„

I was thinking the same thing. It's my understanding w/the Chevron decision that the Court delegitimized higher education, advanced degrees & years of expertise. Because, you know the courts & Congress know more than any experts in their respective fields of study.

Pick a swing state, grab a friend, & write postcards. Every bit helps! I've done this in 2020 & enjoyed it.

You'll get a script of what to write, reminding ppl of when to vote: "Voting is a matter of public record, but who you vote for is private...."

"Decoupling the right to marry from the right to cohabitate is how the conservatives are going to vitiate same-sex unions."
And, "MuΓ±oz is a poisoned dart to same-sex marriage: It doesn’t hurt as much as a shotgun to the chest, but it will kill you just the same."

CVS does the same infuriating thing. When I went to buy allergy eye drops I was able to wedge my hand behind the little plastic shield & grab the eye drops...then an alarm went off as I walked away. 😐 Also, I love that the frozen cases are locked & one has to shamefully wait 2 get ice cream.
