Got an hour to kill before a bullshit surveillance stint, so grabbing some gas station sushi. Which is every bit as terrible as it sounds.

Counties raising rates for court-appointed defense investigations a nice supplement to my more regular business. $90/hour is fair.

A devastating story. Please read:
