I'm feeling a little stir crazy today, but I don't actually have the energy to take ltc out.
Natter 75: More Than a Million Natters Served
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yeah, I donated to CAIR. It seems like a better option than paralyzing despair.
I'm also wildly angry about the SCOTUS rulings, so I'm trying to channel that into ruthless efficiency at work.
Timelies all!
I voted in the MD primary before I went to work.
Shrift - sorry for your sad news.
Random: there is a giant black cloud heading over DeKalb right now. I hope some of this weather clears out before I leave work tonight. (I already got soaked on my way over!)
Also: heard that the senior staff at my old office have left. . . timing suggests that the university did not renew their contracts. The only staff left are civil servants. Is it wrong for me to feel gleeful?
My cubicle neighbor got a new set of headphones that are apparently Very Nice. All day guys have stopped by and gone ooo and ahh and geeked out over specs and the deal he got. I told them they were acting like girls over shoes. They weren't amused.
I voted this morning. Saw a lt.guv candidate outside & wished them luck (I wouldn't object to them.) Flat out told Mosby volunteers to not waste their efforts on me.
And my tweaked neck is still tweaked & playing with my stress back and it is seriously uncomfortable. Foam roller plus no pillows tonight.
shrift I am so sorry.
KARL! I'm so glad you're ok. scary.
lisa - that does not sound relaxing. I've been stung by scorpions 5 times, I am not a fan.
I am trying not to spiral into despair because of the world. it's a lot of suck right now.

It's discouraging. And you know...it was only in 2015 when the White House got lit up in Pride colors to celebrate gay marriage. So I have to hold on to that because my faith is stretched very thin right now.
Well, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who is 28 and a member of the DSA, won the Democratic primary in Queens today. Beat a ten-term congressman who was seen as Pelosi's heir. This is... encouraging.
And a federal court just struck down family separation.
