I feel like it’s time to bring back opium dens, or maybe kava bars, with coin-op machines like fortunetellers but they check your liver enzymes and match you with a nonalcoholic buzz optimized for your particular histamine - liver deal Also lots of pillows 🖤

Did my level best to become a tiny team, to be on their side and help problem solve. I am not sharing this to recommend this approach, laughing.

The orders were a bad emailed photo of a carbon copy and we did our best to figure them out and I just kept slowing it down and being appreciative and slowing it down and got their fax number and got the doc to fax directly and we agreed we should wait for clarity and I’d come back for the draw.

Was in a tiny lab room today and the lab tech was stressed and took their mask off, saying it was hard to breathe, they had a sore throat, they’d stay over here (3’ away) and then as they read my long list of immune-related orders, put it back on and said “I’m sorry.”

Even a poll that had her up outside the margin of error would not be something to take seriously. I am willing to bet other freelancers put polls in the field for their darlings last week that will come out this week, be the subject of a few articles and die.

I am a worrier and to me this is just amusing: WHO is looking at this moment and thinking “what this situation needs is the Clintons”? Honestly lol.

The thing I absolutely know is that this moment is the high point of the payer’s big idea /s/. Now comes the Shooting Down of the Trial Balloon.

I have absolutely *no* idea beyond people longing for the last stable Dem regime they remember, and that’s a massive reach. None of this will go anywhere, somebody is trying something but it has no path forward. Balloon will be shot down.

Oh the poll is a trial balloon. Someone wants to talk to Hillary about running and this is their calling card - see, you could win! Common tactic being applied in an uncommon (!) situation.

MAGA is a decent example of static latching - a stable, functional thing loses its stability, and there’s opportunity to progress but people react to the change with fear and attempt to reimpose the last stable thing. Here that would be the Clinton dynasty.

Blue chip firm with an extensive history. I believe they were as surprised as they say but would REALLY like to know who paid them to include her on the list they checked! No suckers here, someone had a hunch and paid good $$$ to find out. This all makes me think of Pirsig’s static latching dynamic.

Wish I’d screenshotted this tweet so I’d know I had the quote exactly right, it might be “face” or “survive” instead of meet.

Always missing Sofia Samatar, and thinking about her description of Octavia Butler’s work as saying “I want to meet the end of the world with you. Yes, even you.”

…which leads into an intense amount of “don’t fuck with how I do this” because so much incoming stuff does make things harder, and they can’t afford harder but heavy DFWM also increases isolation. And it’s hard to find time to be together outside of practice demands.

Have been part of or paying good attention to some tiny attempts to make change that addresses it and the initial positive agreement is huge and encouraging! And then it hits a wall.

It would improve his position to talk frequently about how much he trusts her, same as it would to say the word abortion instead of Roe.

The party didn’t choose her, Biden did, and he is VERY conspicuously not saying “I’m fine but if anything did happen to me I made sure you’d be in the best possible hands with Kamala.”
