Night, all.

In honor of Edward Gorey’s centennial, we are proud to present Les Mystères de Constantinople: La Malle Saignante, a serial comic that he first published across eleven issues of the Review in 1975

PSA. I'd always been short-tempered the week DST begins, to the extent I would not schedule hearings/meetings that week. Calendar blocked out. My highly recommended solution was to set the alarm a few minutes earlier each day beginning on February 15. Works well for me.

Baltimore's Peale Museum was the first museum purposefully built as such in the United States. It was commissioned in 1813 by Rembrandt Peale.

Morning, all.

1965. Hurts So Bad, Little Anthony and the Imperials. Jeff Beck joined The Yardbirds that year. youtu.be/tYnpF50vz0w?...

The Trump DOJ is big mad about their finest legal minds being humiliated in court

Night, all. Mags and I watching one of the greats tonight, Cabaret.

Mother, these snow flakes are not the stuff of zoomies.

Morning, all.

Night, all. Maggie did some redecorating whilst I was at the historic Senator Theater seeing the Miloš Forman directed extraordinary and restored film, Amadeus. A very large crowd.

Mother, please. Turn up the heat.

Authoritarians attack women’s and LGBTQ rights to consolidate power—it’s a strategy, not a side effect. Trump’s playbook is no different. Follow Jennifer Weiss-Wolf as she tracks these attacks, with a deliberate eye toward solutions.

Explaining to Maggie there will be no true snow zoomies today or tomorrow.

Some land use legal history about the farm in question. casetext.com/case/long-gr...

“Traditional” dairy farms were once a major agricultural land use in Md. This push to legitimate raw milk sales for human consumption is akin to that which led to the legislative/regulatory scheme now supporting farm breweries and related accessory land uses. Farms ain’t what they used to be.

The State Farm bureau reversed its policy on raw milk sales, leading to the introduction of the necessary legislation. The Bureau is a powerful influence on legislative policy.

Morning, all.

Post a female character that you love.
