This disease will be the end of many of us, but not nearly all. And the dead will be commemorated, and we’ll struggle on with the living, and we are not going away. We won’t die secret deaths anymore. The world only spins forward. We will be citizens. The time has come. —Prior Walter in Angels in America

“For such great voyages in this world no longer exist.” — Angels in America. Every time I watch or read it it’s like the first time.

@lohang Stay safe, dry, and reasonably sane my friend.

I don’t think that ruling will survive an appeal considering SCOTUS’ decision in June.

I think that changed in June.

The 4th amendment has always protected US citizens from warrantless searches and seizures. In June of 2014 that protection was extended to phones. A person’s right to privacy always ended with a search warrant backed by probable cause and signed by a judge.

@theru perhaps you could trade the French press for an open port ;)

There is a lack of demand due to suppressed wages and unemployment. This is an ungraceful but effective method to change that. (Personally I support issuing a check to everyone).

@inscius me too! I found this copy in a Little Free Library here in the neighborhood, so that seemed like a good omen.

Bit of a roller coaster ride with my redmatrix server today: :/ http://vox.a2c3.co/attachment/538

My November Reading Project:
Kristin Lavransdatter http://ur1.ca/inkx2 by Sigrid Undset


Kristin Lavransdatter is a trilogy of historical novels written by Nobel laureate Sigrid Undset. The individual novels are Kransen (The Wreath), first published in 1920, Husfrue (The Wife), published in 1921, and Korset (The Cross), published in 1922. Kransen and Husfrue were translated from the original Norwegian as The Bridal Wreath and The Mistress of Husaby, respectively, in the first English translation by Charles Archer and J. S. Scott.

This work formed the basis of Undset receiving the 1928 Nobel Prize in Literature, which was awarded to her “principally for her powerful descriptions of Northern life during the Middle Ages”. Her work is much admired for its historical and ethnological accuracy.

Well played.

Ben Bernanke himself famously argued years ago that a central bank should never run out of tools for fighting deflation and depression because, as a last resort, it could always drop cash out of helicopters. That would be fun to watch, obviously, but mailing checks would be a lot simpler. And even though it sounds a little insane, it becomes a more and more compelling idea the more you think about it.

Nothing makes me happier than when a Central Bank starts printing money to force economic growth. “UNWAVERING DETERMINATION TO END DEFLATION” http://www.vox.com/2014/10/31/7137041/japan-monetary-policy
