Not progressive, and I roll my eyes at many things California does. That said I 100% applaud this. I wish more states used their power as individual states to reign in the Federal government.
Remember The Constitution says any rights not specifically granted to the Feds are the States.
Good for California.

We had just moved from Portland to Denver, and were trying new restaurants. One Sunday we ordered delivery from a local Chinese place that had good reviews. Food came, we ate and all was good for a couple of hours.
Then my wife said "I think I’m gonna puke* and dashed for the bathroom. Being the good husband, I followed her to hold her hair while she worshipped the porcelain god.
She had barely got done emptying the content of her stomach, when I literally had to shove her out of the way to emoty mine.
We were both miserable for about 36 hours.

I just finished listening to all 14 Honor Harrington novels.
I’m just impressed by the logistics of getting this put together so very quickly. No matter what you think of Trump, someone was in the ball.
A while back a woman died after eating at a Disney restaurant and being assured that the food she was ordering was allergen free. Disney responded very poorly to the husband’s suit, but I wonder if the Disney employee believed things were allergen free because of one of these hacked menus.
That’s really a valid point.
Boredom after some period of time, you will have some everything there is to do.
I use Plex’s download feature to make sure I always have music available. The same could be done for other media but I don’t bother.
My Plex server runs in my home and all my media is available outside my home. A travel server seems like a solution for a problem that doesn’t really exist.
I think PE teachers often get a bad rap. I’m grateful that you got a good one also.
Two men other than my father had dramatic impact on my life. Both of them were PE teachers, one in elementary school and one in high school.
I was awkward, uncoordinated, and a social outcast. I was always the last picked when teams were picked. My elementary school PE teacher solved this by making me the “captain” and I got to pick the teams.
My high school PE teacher, who won State championships and coached future NBA all-stars still had time to be my doubles partner when we were playing tennis.
Those two men were definitely my champions.
Dementia.
My mother has dementia.
Every time I forget something I know I should know it terrifies me.
Love love love these books.

I’m a fan of capitalism, but not the kind of capitalism that decrees something is too big to fail and must be bailed out.

Yes, but what gorgeous country to get fucked in! When my wife PCSd from Long Island to Fort Knox, we drove through that country several times.
She would also spend a lot of time at Fort Lee (now Gregg-Adams) and the drive from Fort Knox to Fort Lee also crossed amazing parts of WV.
This is a fantastic post. Thank you. I do know that the Feds often use the Commerce Clause to put the lie to my original statement, but with the abandonment of Roe, I’ve repeatedly heard “it’s in the hands of the States” so maybe my hope is that someone somewhere my see a need to remain intellectually consistent.
Pipe dream, but a nice thought.
