At a diner the other day I was just talking to friends about exotic dancers needing more regulation was the most pressing issue for Oklahomans.

Bills seek to license, increase minimum age of Oklahoma strippers • Oklahoma Voice
At least two lawmakers have filed legislation that would require strippers to be licensed by the state before they can perform.

For only the second time in recorded history (or something) the campus outdoor pool is open for lap swimming in October. Enjoy your pumpkin spice lattes while l pop open another bottle of Coppertone.

Speaking of popes: I'm not sure whether it was Easter Sunday 1945 or when the war in Europe ended on this day in 1945 but The Aged Parent who was stationed at an airbase near Rome was in St Peter's square when the pope made an appearance on the balcony.

But basically, we need members of congress to act not as legislators but as politicians, using their ability to communicate first and foremost. For better or worse, that's both not the basis on which Jeffries and Schumer were selected, but also

Funny how times change. 80 years ago my dad spent time in a guard tower with a rifle guarding solders who had followed a German far right party leader.

Obvious to humanities folks but not STEM folks: thinking in computer code/formal languages over natural languages is not good for the human brain in the long term as language becomes a system for executing commands, not communicating thought and emotion; stunts growth and promotes absolutism

Genuinely revelatory to me to learn how common the belief among US whites that black people get to go to college free is.
It’s not polite to say this but the biggest unspoken belief among conservatives is that if you’re black you can go up to the government and ask for unlimited free stuff and you’ll get it. Trump’s success among minorities came from convincing them the same is true of illegal immigrants.

The idea that so many social media companies just refuse to show you the accounts you follow on one page in chronological order - which was Twitter's original innovation btw - shows how dead real user experience is in the industry.
I feel like "You see content from the accounts you follow" really shouldn't be a tricky challenge for engineers to overcome unless you've built your ecosystem with lousy priorities.

I will die on the hill that mid-90s reruns of LAW & ORDER have more nuance and complexity about social issues AND are still more relevant today that the vast majority of current network programming.

When The Aged Parent's troop ship pulled out to go overseas there was a band on the dock playing songs from the new Broadway hit Oklahoma! When his ship returned after the war there was a band on the dock playing songs from the still running Broadway hit Oklahoma!

Colleges and universities are reporting more errors in FAFSA applicant data coming from the Education Department, adding to the rocky rollout of new financial aid form.
