I see resemblances
Back in 2005, Earl Monroe said, "You know, I watch the games, and even now I never see anyone who reminds me of me, the way I played." Earl is 81 now. I wonder what he thinks about Jalen Brunson.
Too much else to do
Recommendo got me into Down the Rabbit Hole, and within it, Sensing Wonder, which took me from an amazing image of Comet C/2025 R2 (SWAN), with its tail crossing both the Witch Head Nebula (IC 2118) and Rigel (Orion's bright blue right foot). I quit clicking downward after I read Laura Huxley's account of Aldous' death under the influence of LSD. BTW, my fave of the many windows I opened through Sensing Wonder is Putting Time In Perspective – UPDATED. It brings to mind how my great aunt (older sister to my grandfather) was born in 1853 and remembered in my lifetime (she lived to 99 and died when I was 6 in 1953) the assassination of Abraham Lincoln when she was 12.
Wow
Lessig: "James Madison, the author of the First Amendment, promised us a Congress “dependent on the people alone,” where by the people, he meant, “not the rich more than the poor.” That his words have been read to produce a government plainly “dependent on” the rich more than the poor is not on him. It is the product of a Court unconstrained by the original meaning of his First Amendment. Whether this Court will remain so unconstrained — whether it will continue to impose its values on the Constitution’s text regardless of the meaning the framers gave to that text—is the most urgent constitutional question on the Supreme Court’s docket." That last link is required reading.
