I guess the shortages are over for now, if not for good. ImageImage
Or maybe not. These guys never ran out of milk even in March. Snow > COVID, I guess. Image
Too be clear, they had plenty of whole and 1% milk. But I wanted 2%.
At this price, it has to be served at a party with a clumsy, Clouseauesque waiter. Image
Back to Target for milk, and it's 40 cents cheaper than Wegmans. The Force was with me.
It's a zoo. I've never seen it this packed.

"What a Wonderful World" at 28. Bravo, XPN listeners. #XPN2020.
This was another great set "A Change Is Gonna Come," "Yesterday," and "Purple Rain." Throw out Leonard Cohen's original of "Hallelujah" and Prince leads into Louis Armstrong. Throw out Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah" and it's a great run right now. #XPN2020
Now "Baba O'Riley." The top 50 is full of Boomer classic rock standards like Dylan, the Who, the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, and Pink Floyd. But XPN listeners have also voted in Prince, Louis Armstrong, Etta James, Otis Redding, Joni Mitchell, and Sam Cooke. #XPN2020

"By striving so conspicuously to depoliticize the Supreme Court, he has brought about the very thing he hoped to prevent: No one has done more to politicize the court than the chief justice."

@Vermeullarmine and yours truly on John Roberts' futile quest. washingtonpost.com/outlook/john-r…
"Strategic behavior flagrantly intended to advance an agenda often creates public suspicion — which may undermine the aims for which the strategy is undertaken."

Wisdom John Roberts would do well to heed, even at this late date. washingtonpost.com/outlook/john-r…
"If Roberts's apostasies have demoralized the right — Vice President Pence called him a 'disappointment to conservatives' in August — they have emboldened the left. Far from sating critics of the court, his concessions have only whetted their appetite." washingtonpost.com/outlook/john-r…

"After beating Trump and creating a permission structure for some GOP voters to back Biden, the task now, they said, is to turn back Republicans' embrace of authoritarianism and transform their party in the process."

LOL at every word of this. politico.com/news/2020/12/1…
"Trumpism isn't going anywhere. The repudiation of GOP candidates up and down the ballot that never-Trumpers longed for never materialized."

This is the reality. Trump barely lost and everywhere else on the ticket NeverTrump was an abject failure.

Minerva's owl flies at dusk, or so the saying goes, yet even if you lived on a planet where dusk lasted a thousand years that wouldn't be long enough for you to get a clue.
QED.
Obligatory.

The four-part "Clone Wars" arc where the younglings go to Ilum to get their lightsaber crystals, then are attacked by Hondo and have to rescue Ahsoka from him, and then him from Grievous, I had a decent recollection of, though I remembered some of it more and some less.
The scene where the lightsaber droid voiced by David Tennant looks for parts is very reminiscent of the scene in "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" when Ollivander looks for a wand for Harry. I'm sure the resemblance wasn't coincidental.
David Tennant, who of course was the Tenth Doctor, played Barty Crouch, Jr., in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire." John Hurt, who played Ollivander, was the War Doctor. Too bad he's passed away, or he could've done the "Doctor Who," "Star Wars," "Harry Potter" trifecta, too.

“Legal resistance” maenad and former federal prosecutor apparently doesn’t understand how the tax code works.
Feel the air going out of the balloon.
There is literally a multi-billion industry in this country that exists for the sole purpose of helping people avoid taxes. But apparently screeching about Mueller and impeachment on MSNBC causes your brain to fall out.
