The U.S. Supreme Court is a dumpster fire.

-- Supreme Court justices used personal emails for work
-- ‘burn bags’ were left open in hallways,
-- Staff afraid to confront justices on bad security practices

Here's the news story:

I will forever be grateful that I was born at precisely the right time so that the quality of popular music peaked while I was in high school and college, and I wasn't saddled with the lesser musical tastes of people older or younger than me.

Otherworldly, and yet…this is our planet. Minnesota is beautiful in -18° weather. 🙌

Life hack: It's really bad for your health to stare at a screen all day. Mix it up by staring at different screens over the course of the day.

I actually think this could vary depending on my mood: if seen during the day I would find it merely alarming but if at night, yeah, I might be a bit terrified.

I don't pick up the mail
I don't pick up the phone
I don't answer the door
I'd just as soon be alone
I don't keep this place up
I just keep the lights down
I don't live in these rooms
I just rattle around

I'm just a ghost in this house
I'm just a shadow upon these walls
As quietly as a mouse I haunt these halls
I'm just a whisper of smoke

ennui! at the post office

A mentally ill homeless guy walked onto a high school campus in my suburb, wearing all black, carrying a big duffel bag. Now, it’s reasonable to be concerned about that and want to identify who it is, assure he’s not carrying weapons onto the campus, and so forth.

But the community (as, perhaps, poorly represented on Facebook) is coming completely unhinged.
