Bad news: no show this week, because both I and my dog, Boo, have had a rough week, healthwise. Good news: While Boo’s health issues are serious (she is just about 17, after all), I think I’ve found the cause of my feeling crappy for the last couple months: mold. Testing for me & my A/C system today. I’ll keep you updated. 🤞🏼🤞🏼

UPDATE: The mold sample I had tested from my A/C came back positive for multiple mold species. So finally the cause of my illness from the last several weeks has been identified. It’s been about 48 hours since I ran my A/C and already I’m feeling more normal, breathing more easily. But it may be a few days before I know whether I’ll require medication to fully eradicate the junk (anti-fungal med). I assume I should be fine for a show this week, though, and Jim and I are planning an interview for Tuesday, so stay tuned! Thanks for your patience and support!

First, in case you aren’t following me elsewhere and haven’t heard, the Center for the Legalization of Privacy has been granted leave to file an amicus brief in United States v. Facebook. Read more about that here.

Second, after all of you come back from a fabulous, restful weekend, I’ll be having a supporter-only Hangout on Monday. So, those of you who are contributors via Pay Pal, watch your email for your exclusive Zoom meeting invitation. Thank you!

Hong Kong, the firing of John Bolton, my work to Legalize Privacy, and more! I hope you can join us live, but if not, the recorded show will be available for viewing at the same link, here:

There is no duty to sacrifice one's life or happiness to engage in a losing battle. Let's leave the decision up to those heroes, and roll out the red carpet for them, as they deserve. https://t.co/jCha4Typ8T

Wouldn't you say his first tweet of the day today should be something welcoming #HongKongers? Instead…

Perhaps he's trying to give some red meat to his supporters, because he knows he messed up by even thinking of inviting the Taliban here? https://t.co/RrTopuubml

Legalize Privacy

Why couldn't they just make it awesome–like Ms. PacMan–without the #affirmativeaction nonsense? https://t.co/LvwH4YjiMG
