Editor Commentary: Who does this to other people? To doctors, nurses, farmers, teachers, professors, scientists, veterans, working families, people with disabilities, children with special needs, poor people? What twisted, unnatural men.

Finished week 7 of the Montana legislature and honestly, it was pretty good overall. - Dems blocked a school voucher scam program - A Republican voted NO on an anti-trans bill (a first this session in the House) - Medicaid expansion is on track to pass the senate - We got some great court wins

Men: Ugh I struggle to even finish a book anymore my attention span is so cooked Women: It's called A Field of Fury & Roses and it's the prequel to A Palace of Thorns which I enjoyed almost as much as its sequel, A Maze of Mist & Fire. Each book is 800 pages of inter-species elven smut

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

[NOIR JRNL] COP HATER (1958, dir Wm Berke, from an Ed McBain book). Rare starring role for Robert Loggia, who looks young and dashing and barely recognizable. Most of the scenes look like pulp novel covers. Easily one of the most downright erotic late 50s films ever. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ach...
