If I ever get to the point where I can’t make it through a movie in theater without getting out my phone THIRTY SEVEN times, don’t let me out of my cave; I’m not fit to be in public and should be shamed.

Lost power an hour and a half ago. We’re pretty well insulated here, but keeping the curtains closed to maintain warmth means I can’t finish my book. 😡

Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.
This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.
The vote failed big, 19/31.
The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!

A 39yo Black man Torrence Medley was found hanging from a tree at Brookfield Hills Golf Course on Nov 13. Police ruled it a suicide. His family is demanding proof and transparency. Police have provided neither.
Given this country’s history of lynching Black Americans, transparency is the minimum

It is unfathomable that the USG lawyers would sign off on a no-survivors boat strike (no get of jail free card).
There's clear precedent dating back to World War II trial of Germans for that very act, which lawyers know well.
