Someone Talk Me Out of Spending $900 on Some Keyboard Caps

I need your help. When I get anxious, I like to buy things. I’ve been good about it for the last few years. I buy a couch—because I need a couch. Or I buy a new computer case because my old one is too big for the space where I’m putting the computer. Sometimes, I’ll blow money on a much pricier and more useless item. Keycaps. I love to spend more money than I should on the caps that go on a keyboard, and right now there’s a set of keycaps I would very much like to own.

Sen. Lamar Alexander's Democratic colleagues are 'disappointed' with his no-witnesses vote, see a silver lining

Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) announced Thursday night that he will vote against calling new witnesses in President Trump's impeachment trial, but he also said Trump's actions were "inappropriate." His decision means there will likely be at most 50 votes for witnesses, and since few people think Chief Justice John Roberts would break a tie, Trump's trial is expected to come to a swift end. Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) told CNN's Anderson Cooper he's "very disappointed" in Alexander's decision, though it appears the GOP senator "essentially said that the House case has been proven but it doesn't rise to the level of impeachment." Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) told CNN's Chris Cuomo that he's also "deeply disappointed" in Alexander's decision to allow "the first impeachment trial in history that has no witnesses at all, and it's hard to imagine that this is a fair trial under those circumstances." On the other hand, he said, it's "refreshing to hear somebody on the other side describe it as inappropriate." Democratic…

Nonprofit Receives Grant to Help Prevent Local Oil Production

Santa Barbara County faces a tripling of onshore oil production. Three oil companies are proposing to drill and operate over 700 new wells in Cat Canyon Oil Field, posing dangerous threats to clean air, clean water, public safety, and our climate.

The Environmental Defense Center (EDC) has just received $10,000 in grant funding from the Fund for Santa Barbara to help confront this major threat.

Megan Thee Stallion played a Tiny Desk Concert backed by the Brooklyn neo-soul band Phony Ppl last month. During the performance, they debuted a brand new collaboration called "Fkn Around." Today, they're finally sharing the studio version of the song, and as you might be able to guess from the title, "Fkn Around" is a smoothly funky jam about fucking around: "You got a man, but you're fuckin' around/ Riskin' it all, baby, just to get down." "We have some overlapping people on our teams," Phony Ppl singer Elbee Thrie tells NPR, explaining how the collab came to be. "One of them brought the song to her with a disclaimer, 'I know you don't usually do this.' But she gave it an organic listen and was feelin' it. And with the topic being what it was, having a woman on the song who could pen a great verse was what we wanted. And that's exactly what she did."
