Just logging off.

Getting a job no one cares about.

Be bored more often.

Go for long walks. Meditate. Journal your thoughts. Read new books. Spend time alone without devices. You would get to understand yourself a lot much better. Your brain gets the best ideas when it is left to wander.

I was astounded he said that too. And it is ironic that two of the lawyers had to appear virtually. Here we see the legacy of the Federalist Society and the awful Mitch.

Pass voting rights act. Expand the court. This has to be the way out of this 40 year abyss.

Republicans are not worried about the Dems’ voting rights legislation. Here’s what Hugh Hewitt (right-wing opinionator for WaPo) said in today's column, “…the GOP need not worry about the “voting rights protection” bills now being bandied about. The 6-to-3 conservative Supreme Court…will strike them down, just as it will strike down a number of other laws in the current or future terms.”
