Well that is a new one. I wonder if it’s more or less formal than resort casual. Perhaps resort casual with closed toe shoes?

This seems like a great resource on how the ARP will help people save on healthcare. Charles does good work.

As a follow up to the LYS that was featured, my friend was part of a special "follow up and follow through" zoom call yesterday with MVP and other people/groups that helped with passage of the covid relief bill. ETA My friend shared a couple of screen shots from the call and my gosh, when is MVP not just absolutely glowing?

I did a thing last night; I booked flights for end of June for us to fly to see my family for the first time in what will be 20 months. I really hope that with the new timelines dh and I will at least have one shot (given our previous covid diagnosis I would feel pretty good about that). I’m still completely anxious about the idea of flying but I think I need to have it to look forward to. I miss my family and I pray that it happens.

This article is pretty scathing of Cuomo’s staff, in addition to Cuomo himself. I don’t think it’s particularly surprising to anyone who worked with him. My mom worked directly with his office on some of her projects and would come home with ridiculous stories of how they’d try to bully people. When I was talking to her the other day, she mentioned that she couldn’t think of a time that NYS hasn’t had a “strong man” style Governor - Pataki and Mario were similar to work with. NYS has such a long legacy of political machines and everything that goes along with them. Shit like this doesn’t come out of nowhere. 😞 nymag.com/intelligencer/article/andrew-cuomo-misconduct-allegations.htmlPdq I went to high school with DeRosa. We were in different years and into different clubs/sports, but this article definitely tracks with what I remember of her. She’s part of a political family and definitely knew how to play the game, even then.

So what happens if the impossible comes to pass and he resigns? Hochul takes over. But he won’t. He has said repeatedly he needs to be impeached. As for whether he’ll be impeached 🤞🏻

OK legislator is up to some shady shit. Maybe they have defined “riot” somewhere, but I didn’t see it in this bill. It was passed and is now in their senate. “ SECTION 2. NEW LAW A new section of law to be codified in the Oklahoma Statutes as Section 1320.11 of Title 21, unless there is created a duplication in numbering, reads as follows: A motor vehicle operator who unintentionally causes injury or death to an individual shall not be criminally or civilly liable for the injury or death, if: 1. The injury or death of the individual occurred while the motor vehicle operator was fleeing from a riot, as defined in Section 1311 of Title 21 of the Oklahoma Statutes, under a reasonable belief that fleeing was necessary to protect the motor vehicle operator from serious injury or death; and 2. The motor vehicle operator exercised due care at the time of the death or injury.” webserver1.lsb.state.ok.us/cf_pdf/2021-22%20ENGR/hB/HB1674%20ENGR.PDFlegiscan.com/OK/bill/HB1674/2021

6 years too late and for a different job, but my heart is so happy for Merrick Garland. He seems like such an intelligent, genuine, and humble human being.

clucky, I don't know how good this source is - I assume attorneys here will weigh in, but that definition of riot looks fairly standard? Under federal law, a riot is a public disturbance involving an act of violence by one or more persons assembled in a group of at least three people. Inciting a riot applies to a person who organizes, encourages, or participates in a riot. It can apply to one who urges or instigates others to riot. According to 18 USCS § 2102 "to incite a riot", or "to organize, promote, encourage, participate in, or carry on a riot", includes, but is not limited to, urging or instigating other persons to riot, but shall not be deemed to mean the mere oral or written (1) advocacy of ideas or (2) expression of belief, not involving advocacy of any act or acts of violence or assertion of the rightness of, or the right to commit, any such act or acts.” definitions.uslegal.com/i/incite-a-riot/
