nice, brief summary of today’s World Cup 2018 draw results. lots of interesting match-ups; really looking forward to next June
feckless liar @tedcruz on unconfirmed cause of Border Patrol death: “a stark reminder of the ongoing threat that an unsecure border poses to the safety of our communities”, vs. on gun control after Sutherland Springs: “We don’t need politics right now”
Gessen, on consent & changing norms: “while we think we are moving forward, we may be willingly transporting ourselves back to a more sexually restrictive era, one that denied agency to women”
“welcome back to Monday after a 4-day break, asshole”
– my car battery’s dying words in the parking lot this evening, pretty sure
a masterpiece for #musicMonday: Sleater-Kinney’s The Hot Rock (1999). standout tracks: End of You; Burn, Don’t Freeze
…what else, today? saw Thor Ragnarok, a really good time for what it is, almost too funny; cont. Alias Grace (also Netflix), great & gripping so far; Liverpool, draw with Chelsea at home, unconvincing performance, expected better
just watched Sarah Silverman’s A Speck of Dust on Netflix; amazing, bracing, & hilarious
Oskar Blues’ Ten-Fidy Barrel Aged ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #saturdaybeer
Happy Alice’s Restaurant Day. hope you have at least one Thanksgiving dinner that couldn’t be beat
finally got the basalt gravel fill in (most of it, minus the 1/4 yard I still have to get out of our driveway before Thanksgiving guests arrive tomorrow)
for #musicMonday, Paul Simon’s 1990 The Rhythm of the Saints. standout track: The Obvious Child
Strange Land’s Fleur d’Oranger ⭐️⭐️__ #saturdaybeer
the field is set. 210 days until kickoff, hell yes
John Oliver on the Trump presidency “[it] is basically a marathon: it’s painful, it’s pointless, and the majority of you didn’t even agree to run it, you were just signed up by your dumbest friend”
good article from The Atlantic: “We ignore public schools’ civic and integrative functions at our peril.”

while Trump poisons civil discourse, his minions are working to let us all be literally poisoned
