The lack of chain of custody in the Georgia election ballot grab should make them inadmissible as evidence. They are saying that they don’t need to keep chain of custody, so that means anyone can mess with them. Don’t let that stand, we should declare any evidence lacking that is inadmissible.

This was my night. It was this way for over 35 minutes of constant bombardment of log in attempts from all over the world.

And now I just had to spend the last 30 minutes dealing with hackers trying to get into all of my socials from all over the world. Dozens or so different places. Uuuuugh.

Been sick all day. Think it’s the noro virus. I’m not good at doing nothing.
Now I’m climbing into bed with layers on, a lined knit hat, and multiple blankets.
Ugh.
NyQuil, take me away…

Spent part of my day working with teens creating ideas for an art park and ways of improving the community. Definitely beneficial to the soul, considering the news today is just double down fascism with journalists being arrested and their homes raided.

watching my iPhone battery charge number litterally count down from 11 like it was a timer is new. I can't stand the new iOS, there are so many aspects of it that just don't work.
I keep getting alerts that my audio is turned up too loud in my headphones. When it's just old headphones. ugh.

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

The fed govt seizing Georgia’s original voting info/ballots, *not copies*, w/ the director of national intelligence in the shadows is a jarring thing & what this means for weaponizing data for elections. This administration is clearly plotting, and the goal is seizing of power & narrative rewriting.

So when I was in India a friend made a joke that people would start a line to take pics w/ me & I thought it was a joke. Nope; he was right, I exist on hundreds of phones there. There was a line.
I finally asked someone to use my phone to take a pic of me with people & they couldn’t grasp why.

If anyone can point me to a place in the western NY region that makes Falooda I would be truly thankful.
I never realized the desserts that India had. Definitely something I wish was part of the Indian cuisine you find in the U.S.
I think I had it almost every day in Mumbai.

Vance and Trump learned from Renee Good’s murder and have pushed their messaging toward fraud in Minnesota and Tim Walz being the “real reason” for the protests, avoiding saying much about Alex Pretti.
Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem have continued lying straight to our face.

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.
Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

Brewster’s Millions was made in 1945.
Starring Dennis O’keefe, Helen Walker, June Havoc.
Remade in 1985 staring Richard Pryor, John Candy & Lovette McKee.
I think the film industry missed an opportunity in 2025 to jump another 40yrs for a new one.
Who would you cast?
What is your modern story?

Hard to believe it was a year ago. I miss India already and on a second note. Everything I read in this Indian paper that this delicious sandwich was wrapped in about Trump and the collapse of global structure and how shitty he was going to be was 100% true.
