The "Archie" newspaper strip first appeared 80 years ago, on February 4, 1946. (Those of you who are connected with me on social media know that I’ve been serializing this strip, which started out very strong, from its debut. We’re now into early 1949.) Here’s the first week of dailies:

Gonna go with Tiny Ruins, "Me At The Museum, You In The Winter Gardens" and go to bed happy, thinking about how much I love that song
Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.
Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?
Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)

If all these oligarchs named in the Epstein Files are totally innocent, surely they’d be in favor of an independent investigation into Epstein’s crimes.

Elliot Ness' tombstone is in Cleveland's Lakeview Cemetery, following his instructions. Right next to Harvey Pekar's! He died in 1957, broke and suffering from alcoholism (the irony!).
I walk past it often while on weekly strolls. There are usually small booze bottles left on it.

FOUR journalists were arrested. Proving again that this administration isn’t “pivoting” or “turning down the temperature.” By targeting independent journalists instead of the murderers of Pretti and Good, this is ramping up. Not winding down. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

If this is accurate, Good was killed by a bullet fired after there was any conceivable argument Agent Ross was in the path of her vehicle, which means there was no legal justification for using deadly force. But DOJ says there’s no reason to investigate.

Renee Good was shot 3 times by ICE
The first two shots were non lethal. One to her left forearm & another to right breast
The final shot entered the left side of her head & exited the right side
He didn’t have to keep shooting. He was out of the vehicle’s path before the kill shot
That’s murder
