Not sure if this is the best thread, but: Please, folks, if you're reading a paper book from the library or one that you're going to donate to a Little Free Library, don't let your cat cozy up in it. I'm allergic, and when I read in bed and find tufts of fur, I know immediately that I'm in for it... and that I have to put the book aside until I can clean it up enough to return it, and find another copy in order to finish.

Is anyone up to a new experience?

What the heck is going on in the Alec Baldwin drama - first they are charging him with a crime and then today they are not charging him.

Personally, I feel he should be off the hook. He did not load the gun. Hopefully, movie companies will really look into this incident and be extremely concerned with the safety of their crew after this incident.

They were supposed to be ALREADY deeply concerned. That's why they always have a weapons wrangler. Why Alec Baldwin is being held responsible for the RUST gun wrangler being asleep at the switch, though, is baffling, I agree.
