It’s a tired day here in the CatBox.  Yesterday was a gruesome day.  TriMet Lift got me to the hospital 75 minutes early.  No complaint.  Better that than late.  Then the Anesthesiologist was two hours late to my procedure.  She was planning a general, but I would likely have to have spent the night, if they did.  I ordered her to dope me up as little as possible with twilight drugs, gritted my teeth, and bore up under the pain, which was more severe than I anticipated.  The doctor did hit the target, and I should know next week.  WWWendy (God bless her!) got me home around five and fed me.  I could not be more pleased that day is over!  I’m pooped.

Short Takes:

From NY Times: The next Democratic presidential debate will go on as scheduled Thursday, after negotiators on Tuesday reached agreement in a labor dispute that had threatened to upend the event while highlighting organized labor’s influence with the leading Democratic presidential candidates.

The debate, which will be held at Loyola Marymount University, had been in question since last week after the seven participating Democrats each said that they would not cross a picket line, if there was one.

The dispute, between a cafeteria workers union and a food services company at Loyola Marymount, involved only about 150 workers and had drawn little notice over nine months. Yet in the heated political atmosphere surrounding the 2020 Democratic presidential contest, the impasse attracted outsized attention this month as the sixth primary debate approached.

Kudos to all the Democratic candidates for supporting the fight against the Republican War on labor!  RESIST!!

Since Bought Mitch Moscow Mitch refuses to accede to his Constitutional mandate of impartiality, either he should recuse himself, or Injustice Roberts of SCROTUS (Republican anti-Constitutional VD) should order him to step down. Fat Chance!  RESIST!!
