The ones I’ve bought here in CA are Samoas. But I love β€˜em whatever they’re called.

I wish that queen would have removed that damn jacket and not based their entire performance piano syncing.

I think you misspelled β€œintent” as β€œdesire.”

At least 3 dead, 6 others injured after car crashes into Westwood grocery store At least three people were killed and six others were injured after a car crashed into a 99 Ranch Market in Westwood.

This is just so horrific. I shop here regularly. I shouldn’t speculate, but it looks like it might be that the woman was turning left from Westwood onto Rochester, clipped the bicyclist driving north up Westwood, and panicked and mistook her gas for the brake. So tragic. abc7.com/post/2-dead-...

It almost feels like an understatement.

Catherine O’Hara attended more than of my events in the past, but this was definitely the top. It was an author talk for Andrea Martin’s biography, and Catherine and Martin Short attended and both got called up onstage to join the chat. What a dream! RIP Catherine. I’ll really miss you.

There are so many more Sly & Robbie songs I could pick to celebrate Mr. Sly Dunbar, but I’m leaning hard into the celebration angle and their classic dance floor jam Boops (Here to Go) brings me total joy. RIP Sly. I hope you and Robbie are jamming up there in riddim heaven. youtu.be/VVIsTZPp0iM

Ya done good, Marc. I continued pointing it out in several other replies, after you did above, and it’s now more than $8k beyond that.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call β€œsymbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

I have a book to recommend to you called β€œSiren’s Call” by [checks notes] erm…well…you should probably read it.

Miller and Noem also defamed the victim and lied about the circumstances of his murder.

They all have to go.

Lots of scrambling today by the terrible regime.

I want to argue that our goal should be to get Miller removed, that has to be the focus. Noem, Bovino, etc are all just middle managers. The architect of the terror regime is Miller.

The testing ground for Bovino’s Operation At Large was Los Angeles. A California judge initially prohibited ICE/CBP’s most flagrant constitutional violations. SCOTUS overruled her 6–3, handing Bovino a blank check to inflict unspeakable brutality on Chicago and Minneapolis. The 6 bear so much blame.

Not at all. I took it entirely in the good spirit you intended.

Support Greg Ketter and the DreamHaven team in Minnesota either through a purchase on their website (if you’re able to access their website, that is) or through this GoFundMe. Greg is a hero to the comics and book community, as well as now while is hometown is under attack by ICE.

Oh, I definitely made a purchase when I got through. Just don’t want their staff overwhelmed.
