So after we got over that whole McCarthyism crap in the 50s, we got the freedom of the 60s and the weirdness of the 70s and I just really hope I'm around to see straight men in makeup and crop tops and heels in 2040, dancing to Space Disco with long hair and mustaches once we're through ALL THIS.

THIS is the one I was talking about last week. It's bullshit. They're going to suck up all the water in a 1200-year drought, pay NO taxes, and further destroy the poorest state in the nation and its people. And the corrupt politicians are enabling this, secretly. Which means they're on the take.

Roman bronze figurine of a little mouse nibbling on bread! Squeak squeak! 🐭❤️ Landesmuseum Württemberg, Stuttgart 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo shows a small brown figurine of a mouse sitting on its haunches, on top of a smooth rectangular base. Cast from bronze, the mouse leans slightly forward. Between its front paws is a piece of bread which it is lifting up to its long pointed snout as if nibbling at the food.

Justice Jackson to Solicitor General Sauer (just now, in Trump v. Slaughter arguments):
"I guess I have a very different view of the dangers and real-world consequences of your position than what you explored with Justice Kavanaugh. My understanding was that independent agencies exist because Congress has decided that some issues, some matters, some areas should be handled in this way by nonpartisan experts—that Congress is saying that expertise matters with respect to aspects of the economy and transportation and the various independent agencies that we have. 

"So having a president come in and fire all the scientists and the doctors and the economists and the PhDs and replacing them with loyalists and people who don't know anything is actually not in the best interest of the citizens of the United States."
