This is not from a New Yorker article, but on the news the Southern Baptists are saying that since Roe v Wade was overturned, they feel empowered to go after an overturn of equal marriage rights. I feel like we're playing Jenga with the laws of the land; keep pulling them out one by one until the whole thing topples.  >:(

How do people feel about the article on fewer Gen Z people having sex?

Haven't got to that one yet, and it doesn't sound like an article that would interest me anyway.

I've skipped ahead to the article about Philadelphia's Mutter Museum. I once used the library there for some research (it wasn't very helpful), but I've never toured the exhibits.

I was interested to learn that Dr. Mutter was one of the first surgeons in Philadelphia to advocate the use of anesthesia for surgery.

I'm STILL not getting print NYers. I called yesterday and the woman on the phone apologized and said something about my apartment number being left off. I wasn't clear if she meant it was left off when I called to complain nine days earlier about not getting them, or before that. They had no problem getting them to me for about four years until they stopped a couple of months ago, so I don't know what the deal is.

Yeah, what's up with that?  >:(
