So there’s indoor smoking on the House side of the Capitol now that the Republicans have taken control.

I wish this thing elicited conversations and didn't feel so much like shouting into the void

Woop there it is

I dreamed that this occurred while I was flying from Delhi to Miami, as in, I was on that flight, I went to sleep, and I dreamed that we had to land in Azerbaijan. And it was so real that when I woke up I asked my seat companion if it had happened.

Happy #WinterSolstice!  The astronomical #winter starts today.
Therefore, a mosaic found in the Domus dei Tappeti di Pietra/Ravenna, depicting the dancing Genii of the four seasons. The Genius of #winter is wrapped in a heavy cloak. Dating 5th/6th c. AD.

at the bottom

the very bottom

of the world

the taps stopped
the birds who never sing
all whistled one long note
and the whirlpools reversed direction

for hades is the place
where we balance our eggs
on the solstice
cover them in blankets
and magic them into one

it's the shortest day and the longest night, getting ready to segue into the coldest day and the coldest night because of course it is right on the holiday

I see a world in which I can get these because this is the future of pro dog walking. I figure I'll invest and then offer "turbo walks" at a premium until I pay them off

Why have I spent all this time walking normally, like an idiot? What happened when I tried Moonwalkers

The makers of the wheeled shoes promise to turbo-charge your daily stroll, allowing you to walk at 250% of your usual speed. Could they be the future of pedestrianism?

Here's some info about Jack Smith, the special prosecutor who will decide whether to take the Trump charges from the J6 committee into indictments. It looks like he has the experience and wherewithal to actually do it.

Donald Trump Special Prosecutor Jack Smith Has a History of Indicting Presidents

Jack Smith, the special prosecutor in charge of deciding whether to prosecute Donald Trump, has experience going after former presidents.

Today the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol held its final public hearing. It reviewed the material establishing how former president Donald Trump planned even before the 2020 election to declare he had won even if he actually lost, and how he executed that plan. It then laid out how he maintained he had won even as his own lawyers and campaign advisors repeatedly assured him that the conspiracy theories on which he was relying were false. It showed how he contested Democratic candidate Joe Biden’s victories in court—losing 61 times—and then pressured state governments to “find” the votes he needed to win.
