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.

There's some nasty good commentary about the potential destructive power of young men lurking at the edges of this but they either cut it out or it needed another draft.

I think this movie got scared of its premise and just stopped at making a straightforward horror flick with superpowers.

I hit the internet after some D&D writing and now I have to have an opinion on nuking hurricanes, apparently.

Bleep bloop

Also I got a little crush on the photographer. Think he's married, though.

Hope he's not a craphead.

Also a highlight: watching my cousin go after a man she wanted and they being totally into each other.

The live band, Riverside Hitmen, was energetic and fun. A highlight of the evening was the use of cowbell accompaniment for one song in the middle of the dance floor.

Bro's wedding now that I'm done complaining about managing other people's vehicle problems:

Had my wedding prereqs:

1) Short ceremony which is also short on religion.
2) Live band.
3) Minimal children.

Incredible on those ends.

Also Nephew Took a Nap Before the Wedding Ceremony and Missed the Last Shuttle and Woke up 20 Minutes Before the Ceremony at the Hotel Across Town from the Venue.

It wouldn't be a wedding without some sort of emergency.

This weekend's headline: Marrying My Brother But Also Calling Lyfts and Cabs Because No One Wants To Download An App or Call a Taxi in the Scary City.

They are otw!

My barber is late for our appointment. D:

Mmm, should I check in with the contractor about a quote? been about a week and a half.

My handwritten notes look like something an inarticulate child wrote.

"In the film, 'Ready or Not,' out this week and distributed by Fox Searchlight Pictures--check your local listings--a bride marries into a rich family and, as part of a tradition, is asked to play a game of hide and seek. That game is a murderous game of hide and seek that masks a human sacrifice.

"I'm happy to say that we are neither rich nor engaged in games of murder that are pretexts for human sacrifice, so you're safe. Congratulations and welcome to the family!"

Psst raising the House cap should also be part of those election reforms Dems want to make. https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/democracy-rigged-debate-over-senate-representation-ignores-more-plausible-reform-ncna920286

Mom: Aren't you excited [for your brother's wedding].

Me (internally): Vampires, vampires, vampires.

Me: . . . Yes. I'm very excited.

I was an advocate for forcing McConnell to scrap the filibuster for judges, just as we knew he would do if the Dems put up any resistance. That was a good stand to take. The filibuster is fucking terrible.

Scrap. It.

If Senate Dems get all gooshy about it when they come into power in 2021, I will be fucking mad about it.

Republicans would nuke it now if they had a House majority--they do not want a McCain repeat and won't take any more chances.

Scrap. It.
