This is distressing me a great deal. If you live in Santa Clara County like I do, call Jeff Rosen’s office at (408) 299-3099. I called and got transferred to some random voicemail, but I hope it will help. Don't bother calling if you're not local though.

In California, prosecutors have the discretion to charge conspiracy as a felony even if the actual crime someone is accused of conspiring to commit is only a misdemeanor. Two Bay Area DAs are pursuing the charge against student protesters.
In Bay Area, Felony Charges Against Student Protesters Prompt Free Speech Concerns
Local prosecutors are seeking felony-level charges against pro-Palestine demonstrators. Even if they don’t stick, critics say the response is harsh and could chill protests.

On February 13, 2000, the final original Peanuts strip was published. One day after the death of Charles M. Schulz.
![Snoopy is typing the following message: Dear Friends, I have been fortunate to draw Charlie Brown and his friends for almost 50 years. It has been the fulfillment of my childhood ambition. Unfortunately, I am no longer able to maintain the schedule demanded by a daily comic strip. My family does not wish Peanuts to be continued by anyone else, therefore I am announcing my retirement. I have been grateful over the years for the loyalty of our editors and the wonderful support and love expressed by fans of the comic strip. Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Linus, Lucy…how can I ever forget them…[signed] Charles M. Schulz](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:k5vwobjngg43lj7zuw2gudib/bafkreiay56gdvf73nfadcfgabg242ovmrhwzidjhgjruk6aydobboaop2u@jpeg)

I finished the Enhanced Edition a couple of months ago and now I'm on the expansion Throne of Bhaal. It’s a great game.

It’s hilarious to me that many of the responses mention the Tick cartoon from the 90s where Chairface Chippendale tries to write his name on the moon, but not the comic the episode was adapted from.

When I was young and didn’t know much (or anything) about a popular person, I just assumed it was an old person thing. Now that I’m old, I just assume it’s a young person thing.
It’s amazing to me that people think that if they don't know who someone is, they're not popular.

Leaving the obvious racism aside for a second -- Bad Bunny has sold over 100 million albums and just won the Grammy for Best Album of the Year and these chuds are acting like he's an obscure Tuvan throat-singing act or something.
By any objective measure, he is wildly wildly popular.

Both these options sound objectively amazing, why do racists keep assuming everyone's racist?
