Many many moons ago, in the early 2000s when you didn’t have to worry about bedbugs in furniture, I found this beautiful table on the street in my neighborhood while walking Nina home from Central Park.
It was scuffed then, & I have not treated it well.
That changes today. I hope
Ok part 1 is done. Is it perfect? No! It’s old! Of course it’s not perfect! And I probably should have used cherry instead of golden oak, but whatever I needed golden oak for our piano. But it does look a hell of a lot better than it did!
Now I let it dry then will do part 2.
Part 2= generous application of Feed n Wax.
It will sit for ~20 minutes absorbing the oily goodness.
Then I will polish it.
P.S. it is unsigned, the only marking it has is on the bottom.
Done! Not perfect, maybe some day I will do a full refinishing but this is much better than it was before and it only took: a couple hours, under $25, and zero dust.

And here's the third superseding indictment of Joel Greenberg, date stamped March 2021. I couldn't find it anywhere for free so i bought it on PACER and uploaded it here to share: scribd.com/document/50142…
Palmer Luckey sold @oculus to @Facebook for $1BILLION more than it was worth at time of sale. Luckey is friends with Bannon & Thiel.
Matt Gaetz, his fiancee, drones & national security: Embattled congressman is engaged to sister of pro-Trump tech mogul orlandosentinel.com/politics/fl-ne…
Yep he’s that guy
Why is his sister engaged to Gaetz?
Interesting to note the “teen prostitute” trope getting a workout again.
That rhetoric is why Epstein got away with his crimes for so long.
FOR THE RECORD:
Minors cannot give consent. Thus they cannot be prostitutes.
They are trafficking victims.
That is all.
Oh look it’s @maggieNYT aka Maggie Duranty aka MAGA Haberman’s husband @darehgregorian running that play in the NY Post for Epstein a decade and a half ago.
Should I mention that Maggie’s mom’s boss was Howard Rubenstein who just so happened to be Epstein’s PR guy?
Sure why not.
Howard is quoted here, article from 2007. Note the “teen hookers” rhetoric.
Rest In Pugnacity, Howard. I’m glad you’re dead.
What if we just
Let people live their lives
As long as
They aren’t doing anything illegal
Or harming anyone
What if we just
Let them go about their days
Let them walk down the street
Without being attacked
And go to the grocery store
Without being murdered.
What if instead
Of glorifying the misdirection of anger outwards
We encouraged everyone
And made it possible for them
To go to therapy
What if we stopped
Using aggression as entertainment
And instead
Celebrated
Inner Peace
And started letting other people
Be left the fuck alone?
What if the solution for internal suffering
Was to figure out how to address one’s own suffering
And learn how to lessen it
And not to just vomit one’s own suffering
Up onto strangers
Which creates ripples of suffering
And then it just spreads?
What if the goal was a decrease
This is an interesting case.
