@josemorgado did you watch the post match on court interview after Mannarino/Rublev for UTS? Rublev was strangely hostile to the interviewer and I wondered why. Didn’t seem like his usual demeanor, esp after winning.

Opinion | Proposition 3 won’t make Texans safer, says Jay Jenkins of the Wren Collective. It will expand pretrial detention, overcrowd already deadly jails and punish legally innocent people. https://t.co/u7J15Lo9cw

Among my Texas takes is that Houston is not only the weirdest city in Texas but possibly the nation. Every block, a new character. I miss it.

One thing you must know about South Korea: its vibrant protest culture. People only had hours to organize this demonstration at the National Assembly, & yet they had a band, opera performances and this trot song with lyrics changed to advocate for impeaching President Yoon. Wild.
