I'm guessing it's more than just the Jim Beam label that'll be impacted... 😢

[ 45,000 barrels is a lot of bourbon. ]
[ funny, wasn't I just talking about this last week? ]
Also, it doesn't appear that there were any lightning strikes in the area last night (McCracken Pkwy, Versailles, KY) - not since the 30th?

Still confirming this is the correct location, but if it is...
Will share more this afternoon.

Sorry, wrong lat/lng. Still, no lighting in the past 24 hours, unless NOAA's data isn't updated yet... 🤔

Rather than digging up the bussing AND higher ed debate, why don't we focus on a better way to do things that better prepares students for their lives?

I would suggest aspiration & cognitive/learning-style-based tracking, funded through employment.

There are multiple ways to achieve success here, including the use of technology for remote learning, and - yes - physically transporting students to the school that is designed for their cognitive and educational needs...

a few notes:
- local schools serve as hubs for mandatory attendance for citizenship training...
- students transported from their homeschool to targeted schools

- total length of school day increases due to commute, so students are occupied from 9-5, reducing need for pre-post child care

So, I reread an article about Epstein in NY Mag last week, and this section has been haunting me ever since then:

In Epstein's view, the most successful economy is one where the rich get richer...
and the poor have kids that he can recruit.
What makes this really interesting, though, is that there is significant overlap between those in Epstein's address book and the actors in this list...

@hogangidley45's questioning the patriotism of those who disagree with militarizing a public 4th of July celebration is dissembling bordering on sedition...

Those of us who hold @realDonaldTrump unfit for office do so BECAUSE of our love for this country, not in spite of it.
The 4th of July is the day we celebrate the Founders' intent, the day we celebrate the unity in our shared beliefs that we must continuously strive towards a more faithful implementation of those ideals.
Only someone intentionally trying to divide us, and hoping that there will be elements who will take action to drive the wedge even deeper, would think to pull this shit around the 4th of July.

Politicizing the 4th is an intentional act that actively undermines American unity.

The earliest reference to "NIMBY" that I can find in the Washington Post is from Feb. 13, 1983, in a Jack Eisen MetroScene column. Helpfully, I also screenshotted, for you, the illo.
This April 9, 1986 letter to the editor from a, uh, representative of the prison industrial complex?? lambasts D.C. for being NIMBY af about jails and suggests, literally, all eight wards.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

Good morning all! I'll be watching this hearing over the next couple hours. I'm tuning in now, during @RepJerryNadler's opening statement.

This is the second of several oversight hearings in the new Congress on family separation, something that is desperately needed. Stay tuned!
A powerful statement from @RepJerryNadler in his opening statement. "When a stranger rips a child from a parent's arms without any plan to reunify them, it is called kidnapping."

Rep. Nadler then calls family separation kidnapping again and highlights the trauma to children.
From @RepJerryNadler on the El Paso family separation pilot project: "How is it remotely possible that after quietly conducting this family separation program for five months, the agencies at this hearing did not recognize the obvious need for critical officer training, ...

You may have noticed it taking a lot less time to catch up on your feeds for the last week or so. The short reason there is that I and several other people I know have been getting some increasingly serious threats from sources that seem positioned to actually make good on them.
I am not, for reasons that I think should be very obvious, presently inclined to go into any further details about that.

If anyone is inclined to help me pay for some significant upgrades to my personal security though, that would be highly appreciated: patreon.com/secretgamergirl
Here's something though that I think I CAN get away with talking about:

Whisper networks are total garbage.

Every time a man is exposed as a serial harasser/abuser/assaulter within any sort of sphere I have access to- games, news media, tech, human rights advocacy groups, etc.

For the last 24 hours I've been texting & calling with refugees in Libya. 500 are apparently stuck in a Tripoli prison w/o food & water after heavy fighting broke out two days ago. They say their guards ran away, leaving them alone.
These refugees are men, women & children. They tried to cross the Mediterranean earlier this year, but were found by Italian boats, who turned them over to the EU-backed Libyan coastguard, who put them in prison. The conditions were already terrible before the fighting started.
Oh the phone earlier I could hear children crying & what sounded like bombing in the distance. The refugees say everyone's incredibly frightened. "We hear machine guns, tanks, big bombs, last night from the roof it was all fire."

Grassley: The Committee Will Have Ample Information & Time to Carry Out Its Responsibilities

Last week, I announced that the Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court starting on September 4. The hearing will begin 57 days after the President announced Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination—
more than a week longer than the period between announcement and hearing for Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Gorsuch.

The Senate has already received more documents from Judge Kavanaugh’s time in the Executive Branch than we did for any previous Supreme Court nominee.
