Today is the Day of Remembrance for the Japanese American community. 81 years ago today, when I was just a boy of four, FDR signed Executive Order 9066, setting in motion the evacuation of people of Japanese descent from the West Coast and our long years of internment inside ten barbed wire prison camps.

We must never let such a thing happen again in America, and and we must strive everywhere to prevent the forced relocation and mass incarceration of innocent people. #NeverForget #NeverAgain

Listening to Keith Olberman’s podcast, he doesn’t burn bridges. He mines the supports, soaks it in kerosene, and calls in an airstrike.

It’s disappointing, but not surprising, that a Rolling Stones song is in an Applebees commercial.

I was watching. I’m heartsick. To postpone was the right decision made.

Even after Andrew Tate gets busted, Greta Thunberg is a Masterclass.

I’m not sure that even Elon Musk would go after her now.

@obi I would think that it was on briefly enough for someone to get a screenshot before it was changed back.

@ClaraListensprechen@universeodon.com Yep. The appeal of SW, to me, was that you knew exactly what you were getting for your money. Not anymore.

@ClaraListensprechen@universeodon.com Whouda thunk that, today, Southwest by far would be The Worst Airline In America?

@ClaraListensprechen@universeodon.com The first clue for me (a while ago) was when I was bumped into C-group because I was rerouted b/c of a cancellation. They took away my carry-on, which would have been ok, except they offered nothing to people volunteering to check their bag, didn't ask if people would be inconvenienced if thy were stuck for 3 hours in Denver without their stuff, and offered nothing in return to people forced to give up their bag and spend another 20 minutes at their destination waiting at baggage claim. They didn't even offer a free drink. It felt lazy on their part.

Now what I went through was nothing compared with what people have had to deal with for flying SW these past few days. It just feels, to me, that the goodwill (and smarts) accumulated during the Herb Kelleher days has been frittered away.

I used to think Southwest was the smartest airline. Used to.

Just when I think I'll leave Twitter for good, Greta Thunberg gives Andrew Tate a swift kick in a soft place.

Merry today! Happy Tomorrow!
(and after last night’s stunt, may Greg Abbott have found nothing but coal in his stocking.)

Congratulations to Argentina _and_ France for an exciting final. Elon Musk watched it with Jerod Kushner. I’m not sure which one should be more embarrassed to be in the presence of the other.

I guess I should know at this stage how to post from my iPhone, and not just my laptop, but I'll get it. Eventually.

BTW, it's still Senator Warnock.
