So many thoughts on this situation but top of my list: (1) who is dumb enough to pay retail drugstore prices for Plan B ($50) + DoorDash fees when it is available at Costco for $6-$8 and online for about the same; and (2) should men still be allowed to hold positions of leadership?

Live theater: both parts of Angels in America, original staging, on my 2d? Anniversary with Anore. With my mother. Who kept saying ‘Louis, Louis, Louis….’ Because the morally challenged character reminded her of my father.
Waiting in line for hours for each of the LOTR movies, including 24 hours straight in a Pennsylvania December for Return of the King. It was at a 19th century opera house turned movie theatre with a GIANT screen, and my two BFFs and lots of nerds. It was always a big party
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

Serious question….
Fellas, is it gay to not commit murder?
Fox’s Jesse Watters says people who are against bombing shipwrecked people in international waters without due process or any evidence whatsoever that they have drugs or are even heading to 🇺🇸 “sound like lawyerly, whiny, effeminate weasels”

The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.
Opinion | Banning Abortion a Hallmark of Authoritarian Regimes
Seda Saluk writes about how U.S. policy on abortion rights has started to mirror patterns seen in authoritarian regimes around the world.

When my parents and their friends used to say to each other, ‘I hear that restaurant is pretty good,’ or ‘It seems like Spielberg really knocked it out of the park with this latest one,’ or any similar remark, what they meant was, I read the review in the Times
I think of this post about once a week.

There, as the Dixie Chicks used to say, is your trouble
#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.
