Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

#SaturdayNightMovie with the hubby was #TheRoses on Netflix. Starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman with cameos by Ncuti Gatwa, Allison Janney, Kate MacKinnon and Andy Samberg. Not deep, but amusing.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

The Supreme Court has declined to revive Cambridge Christian’s bid to force loudspeaker prayer at public school games.
This is a win for students’ rights and for the Constitution. Public school events aren’t church services — and the 1st Amendment still matters.
