OK with me as far as firing Eberflus. But please, please leave Harbaugh in Michigan.

I don’t want to damage any relationships with legislators. Can someone check in with Rep Bob Morgan and see if it’s okay to call for deescalation yet? If not at the moment, is there a specific death toll figure he’d find acceptable?

Found a Twitter discussion of a group of people bemoaning the loss of the original Thompson Center interior in Google’s remodel.

I feel like I live in a different universe.
