Husband Unit is still resting at home, but our friend Anita and I went to the Hollywood Bowl to see the Preservation Hall Jazz Band and Tower of Power! Gods, they’re all so (relatively) young. Growing up it was pretty much all old men (and women, Jeanette Kimball!).

This is a photo from 1992 during the Rodney King riots. Shame on CNN for using this photo to score points with the regime!

In fact, I would argue that thinking you should only protest when you’re sure you can win is the most naive position of all.

The guy arresting you shouldn’t look like the guy in a ski mask robbing a liquor store. It’s why we’re advancing legislation to put a stop to secret police-style masked law enforcement.

Really heartening to attend the neighborhood #NoKings protest today in Highland Park with my dear friend @sazeracla.bsky.social (and a cameo by @wendycarrillo.bsky.social with her Hamilton-inspired sign!) (If you’re in any of these and want a copy without your face blurred/covered, hmu)

We saw it at Regents Park, and it was stunning. the indoor setting (and Barbican’s terrifically uncomfortable seats) might take away a bit of the magic, but the performances and staging were top tier.

After weeks of prep, we finally have fruit trees in the ground: a Lisbon lemon, a Pixie tangerine, and a “cocktail” with Blenheim apricots, Alberta peaches, Santa Rosa plums, and Fantasia nectarines. It was painful to remove their fruit but I know they need to focus their energy on roots first.

Rant: work gloves at my local @acehardware.bsky.social start at size Medium, and most high quality ones are L/XL only; no space on the rack for Small sizes! Found a few smaller gloves in Garden but they’re pink/floral/lightweight. Guess women who do actual work-work need to shop online. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just so we're all clear here: the Secretary of Defense has been sharing classified war planning about Yemen in unsecured channels, and now the Houthis have enough intel that they can target US aircraft carriers & force an F18 into the drink. Not hard to connect the dots here.

Barbara Starr tweet: IMPORTANT: IFTruman had to make a sudden hard turn to avoid enemy fire this is extremely significant. The goal for US troops is to always bring down the enemy as far away as possible NOT close in. And this potentially suggests further improvements in Houthi guidance and targeting. Def more to learn here.

Starr is QTing Natasha Bertrand:
UPDATE: A US official said that initial reports from the scene indicated that the Truman made a hard turn to evade Houthi fire, which contributed to the fighter jet falling overboard.

Learn from our mistake, NY! When Gavin was mayor, he had an affair with an employee, went to rehab & survived. As governor, he flouted lockdown to have dinner at French Laundry. Now he’s hosting fascists and calling El Salvador abductions a distraction. Corrupt leaders never learn & only get worse!

Today I learned: removing astroturf isn’t like removing carpet. It has huge spikes every 3 inches! Spouse did most of the heavy pulling but we both have countless blisters (despite wearing heavy duty gloves). But once the fruit trees are in, we won’t complain. 🤭

A backyard with bare dirt where the lawn should be, covered in hundred of holes from astroturf spikes. A roll of turf sits alongside the patio, and a red wheelbarrow is in the corner.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

We all know RFK Jr’s wrong about autistic people paying taxes, holding jobs. As someone who has a sibling with profound intellectual and neurological disabilities, I also need you to know that even “unproductive” people deserve our respect and care. Saying otherwise is eugenics, full stop.
