OPEN THREAD: Sorry it’s late!
OVER ON SUBSTACK, ERIC OF SECURITY & CIGARS (WHICH I’VE LINKED A NUMBER OF TIMES) HAS BEEN WRITING A SERIAL NOVEL, BOUGIE APOCALYPSE. “”Bougie Apocalypse” is a serial style post-apocalyptic pulp story. Retired Sergeant Major Jack Harlan and his wife Raych are doing their best to keep civilization alive (real coffee, quality beans instead of MRE’s, refusing to become savages) while the Cough turns people into Zombies. It’s a mix of World War Z realism, Zombieland humor, and Mad Max road survival in the face of collapse. Competent protagonists, zombies, gas station raids, and killing zombies with frying pans!”
I’m in the book, maybe alive, maybe not. Schrodinger’s law professor!

DISPATCHES FROM THE BLUE ZONES:
One of our reporters, who got locked up in a New Jersey jail while documenting the chaos outside Delaney Hall a few nights ago, asked for toilet paper after being in a holding cell for 18 hours.
They told him to use his hand.
Wanna condemn that, @GovSherrillNJ?

TYLER O’NEIL: “The SPLC built its reputation by suing the KKK into bankruptcy, but now it smears mainstream conservatives and Christians, juicing the numbers on the ‘hate’ it claims to oppose.”
