I know the take away from the NHL is hoping that I a cis straight woman want to visit the boy aquarium.
But honestly my tiktok algorithm has taught me about the existence of professional women's hockey, which is apparently, gay as hell and like I want to go to a game

Five states legalized abortion before Roe.
The northeast legalized gay marriage before Obergfell.
Half the states adopted the exclusionary rule before Mapp.
States have invalidates sentencing laws upheld by SCOTUS under their own 8A equivalents.
Etc etc etc etc.

“SCOTUS only sets the floor” is worth remembering in a lot of different contexts.
Feel like it’s important to note here that SCOTUS’s only job here is setting the floor.
If future Fed admins don’t want to let this happen, they can put it in the contract.
And if POTUS won’t do that, Congress can pass a law that requires pay.
This is a case that is easy to negate SCOTUS on.

This is a secondary point but uhm staycations are a thing. I love booking a local hotel for a day of reading and snuggling so I'm not distracted by the things you need to do around the home.
A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.
When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.
This is outrageous.

We literally imported nazis to win the space race
Speaking as someone who just wrote a book on the Manhattan Project, I can assure you that refugee immigrants were the *entire* reason the US mastered the atom first. The most chilling part of writing my book was reading about them fleeing fascism … abroad. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/fleeing-on...

damn. I just searched and the piece I wrote for them years ago about domestic violence and Title IX is gone
Hello repro writers from the mid to late 20 teens - I just discovered Cosmopolitan at some point pulled almost every politics/repro story from the 5 years I wrote for them offline (except two, which they put under someone else's name and gave me "additional reporting" which it very much was not)
