Desultorily studying Japanese. Queer. Gender non-conforming from childhood. Yeah, I used to protest churches, what of it? BA, JD, cat herder, hose wrangler. I'd rather be in Japan.

sorry, Amanda, this is just garbage. You're letting yourself get snowed by a Russian disinfo campaign. It's like every damned pundit has lost their everloving MINDS. I don't know what y'all's problem is, but I'm gobsmacked. Oh, I'm not ignorant, either. But I think y'all are being played.

As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).

Yeah, the legacy media doesn't talk about the legal issues with the campaign monies nor do they talk about how the Heritage Foundation wants to hamstring the Dems in court if Biden were to drop out.l www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
So damn glad I didn't get that Bachelor of Journalism in 1982.

Really? What polling?
The *reality* is there are legal issues surrounding the campaign donations going to any other campaign. AND the Heritage Foundation has said it will sue to keep Biden on the ballot. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
This is just ratf*cking, and you should be ashamed!

Then I would have to *log in* (and I'm either on the network or through a VPN, so frustrating) to validate. Since I work for a financial institution, people grouse about 2FA but they get it./e

Francis Chan, after he tired of pastoring a church and then doing something else (can't remember), went off to Southeast Asia to become a missionary. Then there was a weird story about how he went to one country and was healing people, but there was no independent evidence. Just him talking. :(

Man, my nerves are being stomped on today. I learned that not only is Donald Trump coming to Phoenix on Thursday, he's doing a "town hall" at Dream City Church. It is a well known fact that "pastors" Tommy and Luke Barnett are head acolytes in the Whoring After Trump Evangelical cult. Blargh.

I wonder if that young woman was arrested. I know someone who yeeted a milkshake at Matt Gaetz. He wanted her sentenced to 3 years in federal prison. The federal judge instead sentenced her to two weeks in jail and probation (which was more of a PITA than jail). It's the UK, so who knows?

There were several Trump-wrapped RVs here in Mesa in 2020. Two of those were backstops for stores located on former gas station properties selling Trump paraphernalia. They were eyesores, but at least they weren't road hazards (signs falling off).

Japan is...well, incredible. It somehow manages to be both next week and very traditional at the same time. It's also where I learned that I'm undeniably American. Even after being told not to talk prior to walking into a room with an artwork, I *still* exclaimed aloud. Yeah, I'm American.

They're expensive but not $400 expensive. And they're available in shops at larger train stations. Actually, there are food courts in larger train (subway) stations and some actually have shopping malls. It was dizzying.

No. Not only that, there are prettier looking gift fruit available in Japan, which are expensive but they come in a nice box with a ribbon. This looks straight out of the fields.

Gillers was a name when I was in law school in the 1980s (he's 81 YO). But he and Alito are fools if they think the rest of us don't know what an upside down flag is. I didn't grow up in the 1960s and 1970s to not know--Gillers knows. He just doesn't want to admit that the SCt is in the dumpster.

DUDE. This guy has been around FOREVER. He was a thing when I was in law school, which was in the 1980s. He's 81 years old. He doesn't get that the law has *changed*. Jaysis, another day where I want to burn my JD because of this kind of cluelessness.

Save the pics to your computer and view them using a pic viewer, but yes, it is a funny and profane response. Given the subject matter, it can't help but be profane, and for those of us who are or were involved in the legal profession, the copious footnotes are just a hammer to their skulls.

I read that and I was reminded of "The Handmaid's Tale" TV show where the main character is hiding in the old Boston Globe offices and ends up in a room where there's blood on the wall--executions. I want to tell these guys they're not going to escape if Trump comes to power again.
