I see that the Justice Department has provided the media and Republicans with a both sides defense on documents to use in their fluffery of Trump, with a bonus dig at Biden’s mental health. So that’s fucking awesome. I remain very concerned about the Fall election. It’s clear that it does not matter how well things are going or anything concrete, a lot of people just want to burn shit to the ground and a lot of people just want to carry out their vengeance porn on the poor and minorities and those different than them.
In other news, I didn’t do anything today. I mean I worked, and I made dinner, and now I am baking brownies, but other than that I did nothing of note. Cleaned some litter boxes. Carried some palm tree debris around back. But other than that, just pissed and moaned about the rain and my back like a proper old person.
I did get to use my brand new to me antique nut cutter (or vintage) that I got for free at the estate sale. Like a mason jar contraption with a screw on lid with a plunger that crushes nuts up. I’d never made brownies for Joelle before, but she had mentioned in passing that she liked walnuts in them, so I crushed up some nuts and threw them in.
I like a good single use tool. I know with the need for economy of space in a lot of apartment kitchens multi-purpose tools are preferred, but I like to live in a world where a good tool has a place even if it can only do one thing. Plus, the more complicated things get, the more likely they are to break, and the less likely you are to be able to fix it. Especially with electronics.
I guess that’s all I have to say tonight.
