Just like that doubled over in pain all over again. Thought this round was over.

Caught up on Taskmaster Champion of Champions 2 and my personal favourite did not win - but it was an absolutely delightful episode, and possibly the best prize task the show has ever seen. Splendid.

Of course, some nations make it easier than others. And of course EU residency is an overriding exception; EU residents can generally travel and work anywhere within the EU.

I am out of bed. I am hungry. The pain is waning. I am ready to party.
And by party, I mean mildly engage with the world.

Been lying awake for 3 hours with belly pain. Back to doctor again today, I suspect. Probably not a lot to be done but wait it out, but I'm tired of waiting it out.

Body just defeated by illness this week. The world battering us with cruelty, hatred, actual evil. Today, no strength. Maybe tomorrow.

Before there was Cortana, we had Fatima. Before Mass Effect elevators, we had Anachronox's. Aching for a sequel. Thank you always for this gift, .

My belly has kept me in bed for a few days now, but it gave me a chance to play Anachronox on Steam Deck. Plays beautifully.

obv an unserious person but if your solidarity & compassion are finite resources i feel really bad for you. if all your labor was conditional, if your bitterness & condescension were always waiting in the wings, you are owed nothing and the movement had no use for you anyway

This isn't correct . Dobbs does not, and it could not, rule on a Roe rights federal law. That was not before the Court. In fact there already is federal abortion legislation banning late term abortions.
Quote Tweet
Also, "codifying Roe" federally would not have done anything. Dobbs explicitly gave *states* power over abortion. The ruling by extension would have overturned any federal law saying, Roe is codified.
Amazing how few people understand this. twitter.com/queerBengali/s…

Part 2: Barber's partner, Gian Carlo Menotti. He's known mainly for his operas, but his violin concerto is outstanding and imo deserves a place in the standard repertoire alongside Barber's own violin concerto.

For pride: works from music's greatest gay power-couple. Part 1: Samuel Barber's Cello Concerto in an excellent recording from Christian Poltéra.

Monkey has a sore on his tail. We've shaved and cleansed the area. Any cat experts know what this lesion might be?

You look like you need something rapturous. So here's Mitsuko Uchida performing Schubert. No one has played it better.

There are frequent protests in Brussels, and sometimes in other cities. Make yourself heard in your old home; make yourself known in the new one.

Familiarise yourself with local politics. Understand the structure of the government. Find out when and where protests are happening. Attend them.

It can be difficult to know how to take direct action as an American residing abroad. Donations help; protest is harder.
But you can involve yourself in your new nation; you can resist fascism and support the vulnerable there.

All statements made under oath. These are lies under oath and should be considered perjury. Justices Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett all need to be held accountable. #HoldSCOTUSAccoubtable #RoeVsWade

Off to Dr. appointment.
So angry.
My posting habits will be mostly normal. I will be directing my anger where I can, where it's most helpful. You probably have enough of your own without being burdened by mine.

These fascists will roll the USA back as far as they like with a chorus of those in denial still clinging to whatever else they hope won't change. They will take it all and they don't need elections to do it. What's happening is much deeper than voting. They want blood.

Of all the ways Star Wars bends character connections to the point of breaking, Anakin making C-3PO is definitely the funniest.

idk how long this system can persist where the philosopher-kings convene every two weeks to decree that murder is now legal on thursdays and children can only be fed sawdust

The Supreme Court's first decision of the day is Marietta Memorial Hospital v. DaVita. In a 7–2 opinion by Kavanaugh, the court holds that group health plan can limit outpatient dialysis benefits for patients with late-stage renal disease. supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf

Perhaps they could support the writer? These are my words, not yours, and since my words are how I make a living, reposting them and asking for people to pay you is not really cool, actually.

I'm sure it's a complete coincidence that SCOTUS is going to allow states to criminalize abortion and being gay and eliminate Miranda warnings in the same term. I'm sure those things are completely unrelated and have nothing to do with each other.

just gleefully incoherent. “the 2nd amendment applies to guns that did not exist when it was written but gun regulations must have a historical basis”
Quote Tweet
Thomas' opinion for the court suggests that judges may NOT consider empirical evidence about the dangers posed by firearms when evaluating gun control laws. They may only ask whether a modern regulation has some analogue that is rooted in American history. supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf
