Lost Giants cider in Bellingham is quite fun. I walked in too late to join the trivia, which is too bad because I would have crushed the Buffy round.

Just because SCOTUS affirms a type of discrimination does not mean that discrimination is required. This decision should not cause us to weaken our efforts for trans inclusion in general or trans inclusion in sports in particular. Cis allies, you very specifically, need to double down.

Slaughter is an earthquake: SCOTUS has overturned a 90-year-old precedent that facilitated much of modern governance by granting many agencies meaningful independence from the president. Now SCOTUS crushes that independence ... for seemingly every agency except the Federal Reserve.

There's no sugar-coating Slaughter. It's an enormously important ruling (far more important than the other three decisions #SCOTUS handed down today). It's a huge win for Trump/the executive. And it's going to have massive ramifications for the functioning of the government long after Trump is gone.

One of the challenging things about American labor law is a union's power is greatest AFTER management has done a bad thing, not before. We often can't stop them from doing wrong, but we can make it right. A key part of that is "just cause", easily the most powerful words in a union contract. 2/

Tonight's SIFF film was The Life We Leave about the human composting funeral home in Auburn, and wow, it was unbelievably powerful. And, definitely how I want to be taken care of when I die even though I don't think Alan will be able to deal with 500 lbs of compost.

Just finished up the WA short film block at SIFF, and the last film was an explainer of the "Dicksathon", which is a marathon that runs between all 5 Dicks locations. You then have to eat 3 burgers, one fries, and a milkshake at each location. (1/n)

Other SIFF film tonight was Soul Patrol about a LRP unit of black soldiers in Vietnam. Good documentary, and it does an interesting thing to highlight that the war never truly leaves these vets. I also appreciated that they did put a brief bit in with the partners of these vets.

SIFF tonight included When A Witness Recants, which chronicles the wrongful conviction of 3 teens in Baltimore in 1983 for murder, and their eventual exoneration in 2015. Powerful, infuriating, very well done. But, there's one bit that's sticking with me. (1/n)

4th film was two-fer with a short "Facing the Sun" and then a doc "Under a Million Stars" both done by local filmmakers on homelessness in Seattle. Ultimately, both were hopeful indictments. And a call to action.

Final film of the night, Broken English. Absolutely amazing. A biopic docu-drama about Marianne Faithful. Tilda Swinton as the Overseer for the Ministry of Not Forgetting was chef's kiss. I'll be thinking about this one for a long while. "Imagination is the product of memory."

Just finished seeing Franz, a Czech film (in German) about Kafka. Not really a biography or biopic but something else. Kinda hard to describe really, and I think the film suffers a bit from not really leaning into the experimental bits while also not being a bio and not having a thesis. (1/2)

“It was a day that highlighted how far the Roberts court has gone to advance the chief justice’s long-term animosity toward the Voting Rights Act, paired with yet another request from the Trump administration to expand executive power.” My report on Wednesday at SCOTUS:

lawdork.com

SCOTUS guts what remained of the Voting Rights Act before taking on TPS termination case

It was Alito's decision, but Roberts has sought Wednesday's VRA result for more than 40 years. In the arguments over temporary protected status, however, DOJ might have overstepped.
