This is to say: if you're an attorney who's hesitated to take on habeas cases because you think you lack the knowledge, or you're worried about whether you'll really help, I PROMISE you can make a difference. I'm just a dipshit with a 7-year-old laptop and a bad attitude. If I can do it, so can you.

The agreement would let the data center pull between 2-8 million gallons per day from the area’s primary source for drinking water. And if usage goes over estimates, it would accelerate the need for a new drinking source by decades.

I'm finally catching up on School Spirits and it remains so good. It has everything I love: teen drama, ghosts, found family, angry messy caustic girls, emotionally devastating himbos, m/f ride or die BFFs, many gay people, complicated parent characters, smooching. More ghosts.

A complete misunderstanding of... Narrative. He thought he was being edgy by upending expectations instead of realizing that narratives are satisfying because they fulfill a promise they've made. Just. A total artistic shitting the bed.

I could talk about how much I hate that decision until I die. I truly believe that Thomas thinks women are only interesting if they're miserable.

One of my favorite lessons from Jewish tradition is the idea that every life is a universe.

I can't imagine a state which claims to operate on behalf of the Jewish people thinking it's legitimate to kill dozens of innocent people just to find the remains of others. A shanda beyond comprehension.

Just highlighting this because !!!!!!!!!

BRB gotta write a middle grade novel just so I can bid on this.

That seems like a reasonable 6th grade question! They are horrified by everything.

I also teach 6th grade but their anonymous questions are... Slightly less creative, generally.

I tell people I mask because of long COVID symptoms but it's mostly because I teach 10th grade sex ed and it keeps my students from seeing my reactions to their questions.

Ruben Ray Martinez: Footage shows US citizen shot by ICE agent in Texas traffic stop The Department of Homeland Security did not disclose Martinez was shot by one of its agents until almost a year later.

"Martinez was not protesting - he was driving by the scene of a road accident where ICE officers were helping to direct traffic."
"... he was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger." Attorneys for Martinez's mother

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine known as GLA-3M-052-LS+OVA, that protects against a wide range of respiratory viruses, bacteria AND even allergens. The vaccine is delivered intranasally AND provides broad protection in the lungs for several MONTHS.

I only ask because I sure did forget to take my night meds last night, and I do feel bad now as a result. 😂

Did you drink water and take your meds?

It is 2026 and we are not fucking doing this anymore. EIGHT WOMEN came forward and told stories of Franken GROPING AND FORCIBLY KISSING THEM. The man was a sexual abuser. He did not and does not belong in congress. Fucking period. End of conversation.

The woman standing behind me *also* gave birth on election day, so we had a fun little kiki about having election day babies.
