iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I loved Thailand but that is an abomination

I just want to park a car and not accidentally be forced to run over rental car spikes bc my teen is worried that the National Guard might be there as they go to take a train. Please do not make this more stressful than it should be!

I do think if you tried really hard to build a garage with bad signage, it would still be better than Union Station

Alas, I will have to come up with something, in a land of great beer and whisky and beauty

I try to be a good person, but I really hope Andrew Wakefield gets measles.

Counterpoint: a Senate that did its job might have kept us from causing the Straight of Hormuz to be blocked and a war that spikes energy rates

Ha ha ha! Who booked flights home from Dublin a day later than I meant to? Alas, do I pay for 4 change fees or one extra hotel night?

Hmmmm, an old married lesbian couple and a 16 year old and a 10 year old. Maybe we aren't hoping to find the ring this year

And always happy to support independent journalism, too!

Amazing! Thank you. I'm so excited for our visit

UVA hospital refused to release a woman (≈10 years ago) back to the prison bc it was unsafe due to lack of medical care. Should be the same here, when the state is trying to kill her.

Many such middle school stories

Thank you for this and for linking it down thread. I will be reading and probably citing. Deal with this argument all the damn time, as if my clients have any power in the situation.

A peak into how elderly middle of the road voters in swing states like Pennsylvania are feeling these days. I present my mom, who has always been clear no advanced life support:

I received an email from the county board of elections that my ballot has been received. (I filled out and dropped off my mail in ballot at the drop box of the borough office.) Remember, if need be, it's life support until the day after the election.
Love to all

Do any of my people here live in Dublin (Ireland, not California)? Or have strong opinions about what one should do in Dublin on Halloween?

One of the reasons I believe we shouldn't have a death penalty is the horrific moral injury inflicted on those we task with carrying it out. What it must do to people who have assigned duties to try to kill someone twice and then provide medical attention.

I've had nightmares that start that way!

Not boggled. Not amazed that we are headed toward pandemic levels of no visitors. Way to crash that economy, GOP

Truly don't know (not being cute) but I wouldn't be surprised to learn that after 9/11 pilots started carrying knives, but either way, could be straight up planned suicide. Seems less likely to be than terrorism. Most people don't suicide by mass casualty

Did I tell you about the day my teen introduced me to this cool old band no one knew about, the Goo Goo Dolls?

We’re even passive-voicing the police shooting their own dog.

His defense was that he took the money, but lied to the briber that he was going to do anything. Seems like there should have been other charges brought, but I am no crim law expert.

Planning on this talk after homework is done. Yeesh. But it's how to raise good men

I buy multiple kinds of cinnamon from Penzeys so I have just the kind I need

Not really a shibboleth, but until then I thought it was!

and said it was so bizarre that I almost wondered if her spouse had served her with divorce papers that morning. To which the person I was telling said, wait, WHEN was your interview?? And then told me that I probably guessed right!

impressive as the schools ppl usually go to, etc. I think she told me she didn't know why I was selected for an interview. I nearly walked out. At this point in my life, I would. So, I got a job elsewhere, at another DC org, obviously. A few years later, I was telling someone about the interview,

Many years ago, I had an interview at a DC nonprofit you know. It was a series of individual interviews, with different people. The 1st interviewer was super late than just outright rude to me through the whole interview. Told me that KY law practice was not to DC standards, that U of M wasn't as

Dear Lord!! Corene!!! Were you ok?

It does with the profession I think

It's funny, bc giving a talk in front of 100 people doesn't phase me. I can hang with a multiple murderer without batting an eye. 3 judges though? Ack

I can neither stop going over it now, nor will I be able to stop critiquing it tomorrow night.

Too much nerves. Cannot do it. Did already set multiple alarms

There's so much to cover about the Western Mass lesbian bar, but no one seems to have mentioned the "volunteers" at the for-profit business. FLSA would like a word.
