So Hot

It's 101 here and that's the temperature, not how it feels. It feels murderously hot, is how it feels.

The weather guy keeps promising rain, with "cooler" weather behind it (that is, low 90s). 

Please.

Meanwhile I am living on watermelon, figs, and blueberries, with some peanut butter on crackers for protein.

Fig Season Has Begun

 These are not from my tree, though my figs are also beginning to ripen!

They're delicious.

Yeah, This Isn't at All Alarming

Presidents are now immune to prosecution over illegal actions they take if those actions are part of their "official conduct."

So now a President could, say, torture or murder someone and if it could be argued that this was part of his "official conduct," then he's immune. Or, less dramatically, he could take bribes while in office. Or interfere with elections. Or whatever the fuck he wanted. If it can be argued that this is being done while he's conducting his official business, he's immune.

The court’s conservative majority – which Trump helped create – found 6-3 that presidents were protected from prosecution for official actions that extended to the “outer perimeter” of his office, but could face charges for unofficial conduct.
