The NYT Magazine article about the human trafficking along LA's Figueroa Street has me rattled. Is this horror supposed to lessen my disgust over Epstein et al? All of it's awful.

I could eat an entire box of these. Toasted onion is superior and the crispy crunch is very hard to find in the world of gluten free crackers.

Rock poet Patti Smith still can bring it: celebrating the 50th anniversary of the release of her album Horses, she wove power and grace to transport us. Amazing band. Great energy. The Paramount felt like an intimate club. What a show.

There are at least 3000 square feet of space available in this house. Why is my husband always puttering in the ten square feet of space I need to pass through or be in while I'm trying to get things done?!

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

FUN FACT:

My favorite part of tonight's election results is that all three of the major trump endorsements (Ciattarelli, Miyares, and Cuomo) LOST bigly.

And trump handed out 53 down-ballot endorsements in New Jersey and Virginia. THEY ALL LOST.

Every. Last. One.

One of the things I've enjoyed about posting here is having set it up so alt text is required. It's like a little bitty writing prompt every time I want to share a picture.

You can curse daylight saving time, daylight saving, daylight savings, daylight savings time, and/or daylight time.

All are considered acceptable so go off.

We're seeing a massive institutional deportation and state violence apparatus being built and it honestly feels like people dont grasp the sheer scale of it and what already is in place. For every horrific video of masked feds kidnapping people there are so many people pushing paper to help.
NEW: ICE is planning to build a shadow deportation network in Texas. A proposal outlines a 24/7 transport operation run by armed contractors—turning Texas into the logistical backbone of an industrialized deportation machine.
