and my dear #cats, Kentucky and Louisiana! Welcome and nice to meet you!

Hellooooo Mspsocial! Nice to meet you! I'm Josh. I like reading, gaming, and many other things.

Here are the living beings that depend on me, Kentucky cat and Louisiana cat. Kentucky is from Kentucky, has no teeth, and enjoys chasing her toys. Louisiana's origin is unknown, but that was her name at the Minneapolis shelter so it seemed like fate. She enjoys waking me up in the morning to feed her.

I'm Josh and trying to figure out how to be a lawyer.

I have two cats, Kentucky and Louisiana.

I post about the Court, USPol, puzzles, my cats, and whatever media catches my fancy.

My thought in reading this is that this administration, when it comes time to finally leave, are going to likely embrace a "burn it down" attitude across the board.

I hate listening to the Jordans and Nunes of the committee because their questioning range always seems to be Angry White Guy, which is a level that, if you stay at it for more than a few minutes (and sometimes not even that), people start to tune out.

If you're being theatrical, vary your tone, you nincompoops.

Omgoodness, a comparative fault provision! And a straightforward insurance provision. Oh lovely day!

Always fun when I bend over backwards to get something done on time for someone and then when I ask that person to do something that will take 5 minutes of time, it's the most onerous thing.

The answer is don't hold your breath.

I feel @yeahno had a hand in writing this. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2019/11/stop-assuming-senate-republicans-will-do-the-right-thing.html

I'm picking films for the annual New Years Film Fest I do with friends. We each throw in 10 and then vote on them. So far I have:

Last Black Man in San Francisco
The Lighthouse (if available)
Paris is Burning
Parasite (also if available)
Knife + Heart
One Cut of the Dead
Searching

Trying to decide on some others.

Gaming cancelled. :/

Also, added bonus: can't tweet during the proceedings.

Well, probably.

Kind of hope Trump does testify, because I'm curious about how he'll somehow manage to intimidate himself.

Kind of wanted this to be a more memorable encounter than the one I made on the fly. Having to create a monster at the table and be effective with it requires a bit if a learning curve that a couple rounds of combat can quickly take away from you.

Ugh, please murder me.

I'm not even that well-versed in Shakespeare and this annoys the hell out of me. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/how-impeachment-hearings-can-be-best-understood-using-shakespeare

So the thing I was setting up as background for the party to deal with later they took to mean as "something we should deal with now."

That familiar #dnd feeling that happens when you plan one thing and the party decides to do something completely different and you have to come up with it all on the fly. #roleplaying #dnd5e

Tucky cat now sleeping on lap and I need to pee.

I have "Cat Maintenance" scheduled for every Saturday and I'm here to report that maintenance was achieved.

This is my CBF vent space and it is done. Going to do something productive with my morning and get ready for tomorrow's D&D campaign, where I help other people have fun for a few hours.

The CBF sent me Bill Barr's speech from the FedSoc, saying: "Good stuff from AG Barr on separation of powers and the erosion of executive authority. Agree or disagree, I think it contributes to the debate."
