Yes! I recently saw a performance by Kurbasy, a Ukrainian folk ensemble, that was the last vestige of the US-funded cultural exchanges that have now been canceled. So tragic. Yo-Yo Ma is an American treasure now. His work on the Goat Rodeo sessions is a deep dive into Appalachian culture.

whenever I need to reaffirm my faith in humanity I watch YoYo Ma as a 7 year old playing for JFK, and then playing while he waited for his first covid vaccine. I want to put up a statue of him.

I’m liking Beast but not as much as Death By Lightning.

I was an HIV educator in the early 90s and I know what it was back then. Did not involve gerbils.

Abbey Road, which I still celebrate in my front yard!

He’s creeped on them and they’re getting revenge

I think Trump has groped her and she is getting revenge. He’s such a creep that I’m sure he creeps on any woman around. Look at how he behaved to the Italian PM! Bobert is getting even

There’s method. S1 was about how police and criminals are same in parallel lanes. S2 is about the economy. S3 is about self-government in formal (city) and informal (criminal) sectors.

whenever anyone says anything about education in America I give them Season 4 of The Wire.

Yet they get trashed by the left constantly. #Nowheretogo

very sorry

It’s the “vs” that intrigues me.

I was just going to post ramen. You can always throw an egg on it with whatever frozen or fresh vegetables and then cheese if you’ve got it. 5 minutes and under $1.

one of my all time favorite shows, just brilliant!

I’m shocked that Adams is a Kaiser member. Kaiser is as close as we have to single payer medicine in the US. The quality is high and bureaucracy is low but it’s hard to get care outside of their rules. Medicare is even more strict. No unapproved treatments.

NYT fact-checks on the most trivial things. I sent in a question to the Ethicist and a fact-checker called. I asked for the question to be Name Withheld so who cares about the facts of my neighborhood dilemma? Strange priorities—not checking news but checking advice column.

sure but he won’t come tonight. If you can wait til 10 am that’s the free option

A plumber for $100 cash or even $200 cash. Call a pro!
