A new day!

Good morning!

Hear comes the reign again.

Phoebe · Post by **Phoebe** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 7:54 am

I'm glad that everyone is doing okay at least for now.

Candy for everyone!

Kyle · Post by **Kyle** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 11:20 am

Most candy is not vegan. Unless it's just pure sugar. So I haven't eaten candy in a while.

Post by **Mike** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 11:39 am

I didn't say you had to eat it. But I got it for you.

Milk chocolate covered bacon squares for everyone!

Phoebe · Post by **Phoebe** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 11:11 pm

What candy is not vegan? I guess milk chocolate? I don't know man, I got afraid and I started to feel things about keeping my candy close.

You gotta rise up!

Post by **Mike** » Fri Dec 11, 2020 5:55 am

Rise and shine!

Milk solids. Honey is the other thing that shows up fairly often.

Kyle · Post by **Kyle** » Fri Dec 11, 2020 12:37 pm

I still eat honey and gelatin. But yeah- it's mostly the milk.

Kyle, wft is up with your state's attorney general, and why is he trying to overturn the election in my state?

Kyle · Post by **Kyle** » Fri Dec 11, 2020 1:35 pm

My theory is that he's trying to curry favor with Trump for a pardon. The problem is that he's under indictment for more than just federal crimes- he's currently being investigated for bribery charges. He's insufferable.

Post by **Mike** » Fri Dec 11, 2020 2:04 pm

Yeah. And in addition to his pardon powers, Republicans are all sure that Trump will announce his candidacy for 2024, which will make him the defacto head of the GOP for the next four years, and he has made it clear that if you are not "sufficiently loyal", then he will do everything in his power to turn the GOP base against you. They have all found ways to justify giving at least lip service to overthrowing democracy in order to protect their own power.

I hope the loyalty tests become increasingly severe and far from reality to the point that more people break away to the point that the hardcore Trumpers split from those merely totally lacking empathy and care only about lower taxes.

As a lawyer, I can tell you that this loyalty pledge is already there. I can't imagine any lawyer that's even 20% good at their job thinking that this has merit. It's a joke. It's laughable. It's so bad that I had a discussion with another lawyer today about whether we have and obligation to report Ken Paxton to the bar.

Please, report away! You have my endorsement!

Guys! I finished my Christmas shopping!

Post by **Mike** » Sat Dec 12, 2020 2:44 pm

Yay! I'm so proud of you! What a good feeling, eh.

Eliahad · Post by **Eliahad** » Sat Dec 12, 2020 2:56 pm

It feels great! I wonder what other things I should finish and what it will feel like to have THOSE things done?!

Tahlvin · Post by **Tahlvin** » Sat Dec 12, 2020 3:24 pm

Good afternoon. My oldest child is now 24 years old as of today. That’s not possible, is it?!

Post by **Mike** » Sat Dec 12, 2020 4:28 pm

I looked it up. It is impossible for that to be true.

Tahlvin · Post by **Tahlvin** » Sat Dec 12, 2020 5:19 pm

I know, right? He can’t be more than 13, can he? I cannot have a child that is almost a quarter century old!

Eliahad · Post by **Eliahad** » Sat Dec 12, 2020 5:54 pm

Holy crap beans!

Post by **Mike** » Sat Dec 12, 2020 6:54 pm

Look, not trying to upstage you, but in one month, my oldest will be forced to go off of our insurance.

Have they gone off your cell phone plan yet?

Kyle · Post by **Kyle** » Sun Dec 13, 2020 7:05 am

I did kick two off the cell phone plan to make room for the two youngest. Neither lives with me and one is married. That did not prevent them from acting completely betrayed when I told them.

The oldest one pays me monthly for his cell service.

Tahlvin · Post by **Tahlvin** » Sun Dec 13, 2020 4:07 pm

We kicked the oldest off when he got his job after college. He’s left the job and moved back home while waiting to go to school in New Zealand, but is still on his own cell phone plan.

Pshhh, for YOU maybe.

Early afternoon (US Central Time).

The physics for string players class I taught are all starting to turn in their final projects. They had to make a musical instrument out of whatever they wanted using the principles we talked about in class. The videos of them explaining and trying out their instruments are ADORABLE.

Stan · Post by **Stan** » Mon Dec 14, 2020 1:30 pm

Holy crap that sounds cool.

Tahlvin · Post by **Tahlvin** » Mon Dec 14, 2020 2:30 pm

That sounds awesome! I'd love to see some of those!

Eliahad · Post by **Eliahad** » Mon Dec 14, 2020 2:32 pm

I might try and snag a couple for sharing!

Tahlvin · Post by **Tahlvin** » Mon Dec 14, 2020 3:22 pm

And all I did in physics in high school was build a wind tunnel.
