One time in college I was eating in a churrascaria with a student club and Larry Summers came by to congratulate us on our work.

Another time I spent a summer working in the psychology lab of Stephen Kosslyn.

Harvard, baby!

This rally was invigorating. (Tish James! Ex-Teen-Vogue badasses!) I think they’ll be out there again today. And the Starbucks action. New York is a union town and today it feels like it.
Rally for the Fired Four. This Wednesday at 6 pm at 1 WTC.

Closing this ticket as FIXED.
Filing a bug report here. I woke up and there’s _good_ news on my phone? Will this be fixed in an update or do I need to replace the device?

It’s come to my attention that Millie Bonnie Brown married Jon Bon Jovi’s son.

And now her name is a marvelous trochaic tetrameter:

Millie Bonnie Brown Bongiovi.

Perhaps my hottest take is that in home bathrooms everyone should pee sitting down.
