The Deeming v Pesutto judgment will be livestreamed this morning at 10:15 for anyone who may be interested.
Don't ask me to predict the outcome, but it seems likely Deeming will win on at least one or two of her claims. Will have to see.
Edit: Well, she won on all five of her claims.
The crying of lot 49. I don't think I've read a book that sets up one premise and pivots to something else so quickly. It's impressive how much is packed into such a short book. I feel like I need to read about it then read it again
I feel like I should really reduce my screen time or at least social media… the stress and brainrot are real. It’s just hard when there are barriers to doing stuff physically or outside.
Reading and art are the obvious things but I’m also pretty brain fogged. Maybe I’ll just start playing single player games again
