Yep. Some of my friends roll their eyes at me when I yammer on about how changes to Roe foretell changes to many other landmark cases, ’cause I’ve been doing it for so, so long.

And it’s not just Griswold they’ll come for. They’ll come for Loving, for Lawrence, for Obergefell.

“Who even calls themselves their child’s boyfriend?”

Never before have I been so sad to see a person released from hospital as I was last week. Was kinda hoping he’d be leaving via another door. Sorry (not really).

Alternately, she could take the Caroline Giuliani route. Keep her name and proudly/loudly live a life her dad & others in the GOP would find deplorable and embarrassing.

Ted Cruz doesn’t realise how much his own daughter hates him.

‘Bosnia was in the early 90s when he was a kid, so was just theoretical for someone his age.’

‘He is forgetting the ethnic cleansing that broke apart the old Yugoslavia and the current cluster fuck that is Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and those other Aegean countries.’

‘God’s not finished with me’ has strong ‘If Croesus goes to war, he will destroy a great empire’ vibes.

At work, I normally listen to BBC 6 online. I had to move over to another online source of music on Friday. I tried BBC Radio 1 Dance, it was also playing the retrospective. I wasn’t listening when BBC R1 Dance transistioned to the retrospective, but apparently it was quite abrupt, as shown here.

My PC (a Dell touch-screen that I never use the touch-screen part of (‘cause, eww fingerprints!)) allows me to use the mouse on the ‘touch-screen’ keyboard and I çan select all sörts øf characters iñ essentially the same way as it’s done on a phone.

Agreed that the end-seasons lineup was best. But Jesse L Martin was gone by the final seasons of the Mothership. The lineup was Anthony Anderson, Jeremy Sisto, S. Epatha Merkerson, Linus Roache, Alana de la Garza, Sam Waterson.

Is that because Raúl Esparza is bi? Because I think Esparza’s being bisexual has coloured my thinking about Barba.

You’re not alone. The only ‘ship’ I ever felt in the L&O ‘verse was duing the later years of the lamented Mothership: Rubirosa and Lupo. They seemed to hint at it but dropped it.

Interesting. If I run out of the stuff I brought back from my last trip home in Nov 2019 before my next trip I may need to buy from Walmart/Amazon (though I’m loath to buy from either, TBH). I make a point of hitting Boots or some other chemist whenever I’m back just to stock up & I’m not sure if I’ll be back in ’21.

Many years ago, I worked with a guy who had been in a downtown NYC punk band. Madonna stole their drummer, which my former co-worker was kind of okay with. What really pissed him off was the studio time she stole from them. Apparently this was what she did: walked into a studio and claimed ‘squatters’ rights’ on the…

There’s this stuff called Sudocrem. I’ve only ever seen it in Ireland. Madge has a tub of it on her sink/counter. It’s the little grey tub over her left shoulder. #IrishTwitter has gone all:

And to think Cressida got a promotion after her involvement in the murder of Jean Charles de Menezes by the Met Police.

There’s a guy I follow on Twitter -Fergus Craig- who does voicework. He’s got this character Detective Roger Le Carre (he’s writing a Le Carre novel) who’s based in Exeter.
