Happy Friday, with its 7pm sunset

It happens every September in the mid-latitudes: one day you've got over 13 hours of daylight and sunsets around 7:30, and two weeks later you wake up in twilight and the sun sets before dinnertime. In fact, Chicago loses 50 minutes of evening daylight and an hour-twenty overall from the 1st to the 30th. We get it all back in March, though. Can't wait.

Speaking of waiting:

• Buckingham Palace just warned people that the queue to see Queen Elizabeth's coffin has a 24-hour wait at the moment, so...dress warmly!
• Drivers on the New Jersey Turnpike will have to wait even longer to get into the Holland Tunnel after a planned $4.7-billion project adds even more induced demand.
• Via Bruce Schneier, Uber has had a data breach. No, scratch that—Uber lost control of its entire computing universe, because the company culture of cheapness and bullshittery extends to their IT security as well.
• Ronald Brownstein finds this year's election...really weird.
• David Brooks asks, why do we not have a strategy to defeat the XPOTUS?
• Matt Ford points to Florida governor Ron DeSantis (R) as the future of Republican campaigning: trolling the libs.
• The Cook County State's Attorney has charged two Chicago cops with multiple felonies after they shot an unarmed man in Pilsen and lied about it.

Finally, Fareed Zakaria visited Kyiv, Ukraine, to learn the secret of the country's success against Russia.
