Calli, here's a twitter thread of bail funds: [link]
Looks like civilization finally caught up with us.

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.

I'm fine here, and the Greater Camberville area (which includes Boston et cet) seems to be doing fine.
My serenity is seriously compromised by an eyewitness (somebody connected to a bunch of us Buffistas on Facebook) who saw a large number of cars driving around Minneapolis without plates -- there are real provocateurs out there.
And then there are the police departments that still somehow believe that the correct action to a peaceful protest is tear gas, rubber bullets, et al -- just what you want to make things worse.

Yay lawyers guild. Yay Consuelas relatives restaurant!
Blueberry pie is delicious and now I want some. Mmmm. I have cupcakes, can we trade through the Internet tubes?
Had remote book club today, it was nice to see folks—it's mostly folks I don't even see online much, so that chatting with acquaintances thing is something I haven't had for months, it feels like? Also had a teeny bottle of Prosecco, for my solo mimosa.

Our wings are not tired.
Dropped my son and GF at the West Palm Beach protest near Trump Tower. Sorry, it is over 90 out and I just can't. He brought a gallon jug of water and they wore masks. I drove back A1A and there were about 20 copy cars within a mile or so of Mar-A-Lago (N&S&E&W of property). I didn't think he would be there when it is so hot out, but maybe since he was down here for the launch he stayed. It could be they were just there in case the protests head that way.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Best of luck to son an GF, Laura.

He reports great support with people beeping and cheering them. I probably have to go pick them up. Ugh.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
It was a night last night. I woke up to someone banging on my door saying another person was trying to steal stuff outside. I have nothing much outside, and he was scaring the living daylights out of me, so I just stayed in place until he went away. This morning, my stuff (hoe, rake, chair) was still there.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Thanks again, Consuela.
I just got off a Skype call with my family. It was lovely to see everyone again, and kinda sad to acknowledge that we won't be getting together this summer.
I also had homemade blueberry pie for dinner. That was an excellent choice and I'm glad I made it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

That sounds like a perfect dinner!
