My heart aches for D'Angelo and Angie Stone's son. I know the pain of losing a parent to a terminal illness but I cannot imagine having that happen in the same year as losing the other parent in a car accident. It is so incredibly tragic and unfair for that young man, who is only 26-27 years old.

Very bad: OSU unilaterally cancelled the registration of grad students attending the joint conference of the National Society of Black Physicists and the National Society of Hispanic Physicists. And OSU won't fund recruiting at the Society for Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science.

Ohio State changes policy on group conferences after Trump administration threats

A federal investigation into potentially discriminatory practices at Ohio State prompted the university to change its policies regarding conferences.

For anyone who cares, since Doubletree is stingy with the 🍪 now.

Double Tree Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe (allegedly)

Ingredients
• ½ pound butter, softened (2 sticks)
• ¾ cup + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar|
• ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1¼ teaspoons vanilla extract
• ¼ teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 2¼ cups flour
• 1/2 cup rolled oats |
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt|
• Pinch cinnamon
• 13/4 cups chopped walnuts
• 2 2/3 cups Nestle Tollhouse semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions
1 Cream butter, sugar and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes
2 Add eggs, vanilla and lemon juice, blending with mixer on low speed for
30 seconds, then medium speed for about 2 minutes, or until light and fluffy, scraping down bowl.
3 With mixer on low speed, add flour, oats, baking soda, salt and cinnamon, blending for about 45 seconds. Don't overmix.
4 Remove bowl from mixer and stir in chocolate chips and walnuts.
5 Portion dough with a scoop (about 3 tablespoons) onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper about 2 inches apart.
6 Preheat oven to 300°F. Bake for 20 to 23 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and center is still soft.
7 Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet for about 1 hour.
Cook's Note
You can freeze the unbaked cookies, and there's no need to thaw.
Preheat oven to 300°F and place frozen cookies on parchment paper-lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake until edges are golden brown and center is still soft.

I loved the ones that would only play on cartoon network or nick for those toys you had to pay 4 payments of 19.95 plus shipping and handling and would use once and get bored instantly. My grandma still got those rainbow art markers and blow pens at the house from 20 yrs ago

I’ve always believed that police should have to be insured akin to malpractice insurance and/or any damages should come from police pension funds.

I’ve been disabused of morality as motivation for them to do the right thing. Gotta hit them in their pockets and make them feel it.
