Trolling:
Letter from Harvard: natural immunity exponentially better than vaccine; puts "vaccine passports" in limbo. Link here. If this is from Harvard, it must be true.

- Canon, high-end color: increased from six to nine
- Epson, nice price point: down two, now none on shelf
- HP, unchanged, at one. A low-end Envy model

SCOTUS: Texas fetal protection act -- 5-4 declined to issue emergency injunction; warning -- trolling follows --
- would have been a lopsided 6 - 3 had the "conservative" chief justice joined the majority
- I didn't understand my wife trying to explain the law (she gets her news from Rachel Maddow)
- in fact, very, very clever law: individuals deputize to report violations; $10,000 bounty
- historically, cattle-rustlers faced greater penalties than those performing third-trimester / post-delivery feticide
- unless I'm missing something, this stops "all" abortions as of today in Texas; US Congress would have to pass a federal civil rights law to push back the most recent ruling
- will lead to more calls to pack the court
- to conserve odd-number of justices, Biden would have to appoint even number of new justices: two or four -- two more is hardly packing the court; four is a bridge too far?
- a one-term president could pack the court following most successful evacuation in history
- a reader pointed out: this is not a setback for women -- the SCOTUS ruling on abortion; it's now agreed that this is no longer a binary world, and, even more remarkable, XX individuals can not become pregnant
NYC transportation: apparently got hit worse than Louisiana. Wow.
