Just heard from a friend that Express Scripts has refused to mail her prescription for Misoprostol. Not mifepristone, the medication currently embroiled in the court. The other one, for treating ulcers and softening the cervix to aid in the placement of IUDs.

Express Scripts is refusing to fill prescriptions for the uncontested, perfectly legal, Misoprostol.

Not to brag, but I took it offline AND circled back at work today.

Do you see that track of brown leading up to Charlie? That is where Charlie puts the brakes on when chasing squirrels … the hole under the fence is right there. I laid sod out to fill it in about three weeks ago. What was I thinking?

For our British, Australian, and New Zealand friends, SOD in America is grass that is cut in rectangles or rolls to lay out. I know, it has quite a different meaning where you live.

A photo from the Brooklyn Eagle, 1942. The caption read β€œGirls show up in slacks at Abraham Lincoln High School, in Brooklyn, in protest because a classmate, Beverly Bernstein, was suspended the day before for wearing slacks.”

β€œShould high school girls, particularly students of Abraham Lincoln High School on Ocean Parkway… be permitted to wear slacks to class?”

Bernstein not only had the nerve to show up in blue gabardine slacks, she accompanied it with a "lipstick red sweater."

@ProPublica

ProPublica has the receipts. In the form of county tax records AND a deed. Harlan Crow, real estate tycoon, spent 133,000 on two empty lots and Thomas' mom's house in 2014. Gee...

And, for everyone sweatily typing out how this isn't illegal..."A federal disclosure law passed after Watergate requires justices and other officials to disclose the details of most real estate sales over $1,000. Thomas never disclosed his sale of the Savannah properties. That appears to be a violation of the law, four ethics law experts told ProPublica."

Notice how when Republicans do crazy shit like "expel members of the Tennessee legislature for protesting school shootings" there's no hand wringing in the media about how this will change norms and open the GOP up to retaliation from the Dems the same way there is with Trump being prosecuted.

I always see parents talking big in comments sections of news stories that are about injustices to other kids. β€œNobody better do that to my child!”

Yet, here we are as a country where the number 1 cause of death for children is gun violence, and I still see so many parents who are β€œnot political” or quietly voting Republican.

All big talkers until the country’s kids, including theirs, actually need their protection. All hypocrites and cowards.

If I could make $700 I can make this move without too many worries. I have items for sale in my shop. I have until the 31st and then I'll be homeless. Here is the link to my shop

A great work-week, which isn't what I've come to expect from work for the last few years.
There was a guy here, my boss's boss's boss. He was in over his head, didn't have a clue what we do or why, but wanted to make his mark. He thrashed around. Whatever bright, shiny thing caught his attention, that was the new Top Priority. Everyone drop everything and focus on this. He left Tuesday.
Today I got my paycheck, but for too much money. Accounting said no, that's right. I got a raise. A nice one.

Love. As much as you can, as many as you can, as often as you can.

Sorry Nancy Pelosi, you’re wrong

Whatever legacy Dianne Feinstein had is now severely tarnished

From the hug-heard-round-the-world with Lindsey Graham, to her refusal to promote the younger generation and pass the torch

Dianne Feinstein needed to resign …YEARS ago

What’s your take? I would like to hear it.
