Optimistic Justice Warrior

FBI agents are not trained to patrol streets. And every agent that is assigned to do that is NOT investigating:

*foreign spies stealing gov’t and trade secrets
*foreign and domestic terrorist threats
*crimes like fraud, corruption, trafficking, and violent crimes (among others)

Do you feel safer?

I’m becoming convinced that the reason they keep making the White House look like Mar-a-Lago is that he’s slowly losing his memory and they keep trying to put him in places that seem familiar.

🚨 Sources close to the DC mayor and police say, Trump will deploy 1,000 National Guard troops into D.C. tomorrow/Monday.

• For context, Los Angeles is 502.7 square miles, and he deployed 4,000 troops there.

• Washington, D.C. is only 68.3 square miles.

This is what cities under siege look like.

Horrific

It's not allowed. Don't make me block you.

"Doesn't" - or more accurately, "chooses not to do these things for you, an illiterate Neanderthal."

Never seen Lost. Zero desire to see it.

Same with all the zombie and end of society series. Zero interest in the subject matter.

And I watch a ton if TV.

I'm sorry, but no. This is not a priority.

If you are so concerned with your child being illuminated by fluorescent lighting, then you are unable to function in the real world.

Fluorescent lighting exists. If you hate it so much you don't want your child to be around it, pay for a private school.

2/2 Back at the dawn of the online research, West had a stranglehold on bound case reporter books. They claimed content of the case law couldn't be used because their books were the ones that we used in the library. But they didn't own content of judicial opinions just because they published them.

Nobody wants to follow WL/Lexis. But the cases re their attempt to enforce copyrights of compiled non-copyright materials were very important and limited their rights to what they added. Their ridiculous positions were comparable to AI's theft & republishing of art, books & website content now. 1/2

They had access to health care, such as it existed.

We know about plenty of health care opportunities in existence, but are precluded from accessing it due to the government's decision that universal illness and death are preferable to universal health care.

Westlaw and Lexis charge for their databases because they add content that (some) consider useful.

However, low cost legal libraries are able to make available to the public free or near-free non-copyrighted content while omitting the copyrighted summaries/headnotes.

Nonlegal libaries do the same.

Women should be paid more than men for equal work. Pass it on.

Stunning! A pigeon doing backflips.

" The greatness of humanity is not in being human,
but in being humane " !!!
Mahatma Gandhi

In 1949, Superman told schoolchildren “our country is made up of Americans of MANY different races, religions and national origins. So…

“…if YOU hear anybody talk against anyone else because of his religion, race or national origin — don’t wait: tell him THAT KIND OF TALK IS UN-AMERICAN.”

The fact that you think you have better health care means you are part of the Upstairs ruling class. Regardless of who you are or what your job is or what your earnings are.

Health care for far too many right now is comparable to the Gilded Age. Nonexistent because of price.

Actually, 29,000 workers or 29,000 homeless people could be millionaires.

29,000 newborn babies.

29,000 dogs.

29,000 blades of grass.

He looks upon all of us exactly the same.

Yes and no. If an AI company settles, it would likely contain a ban worldwide unless $x per use license fee.

Most likely outcome is companies shut down a la Napster bc fees for use are prohibitive to profit. Good riddance.

Copyright has a sophisticated global network for protection & enforcement.

Actually, no. It depends on what is in the data set and where that information comes from.

The legal industry has dealt with this issue over case law citations for decades, since Lexis & Westlaw were battling out what they own.

Neither owns case law text or citations. Only commentary & headnotes.

Well, if it isn't the consequences of their own actions.

Zero sympathy from this lawyer. Zero.

This used to be the Greatest Shame of America.

Little did we know, it was proof of our Constitution still working as intended.

And we would reach a point in time when we would beg for that level of stability and ethics in government.

a woman in a wig is laying on a pile of pasta and says eat pierogi . ALT: a woman in a wig is laying on a pile of pasta and says eat pierogi .

Example #98,576 of Newsmax's illiteracy:

There is no word "pierogies".

Pierogi is already plural.

A single Polish dumpling is called a pierog.

Of course, since nobody can eat only one, you will only ever hear about them in plural form. As is right and proper.

Delivery receipt showing delivery for a single faucet (weight 6.5lb box) from Menard's store approximately 5 miles from my house, includes Local Delivery from Store: $109.00 Fuel surcharge $2.34 Total delivery charges $111.34 Weird flex on invoice "By purchasing today you save $27.50 with mail-in rebates" WOO FUCKING HOO, MENARDS! How generous of you.

I am so annoyed. For a change, it has nothing to do with tariffs.

I am buying a faucet. Menard's not Home Depot because...well, we all know why.

The faucet costs $250. They want $111 incl $2.34 fuel surcharge to deliver a 6.5lb box 5 miles from the store.

Now I shop elsewhere. Cuz I'm pissed off.

Ten lessons the Aztecs can teach us today | Sebastian Purcell You don’t need to solve your soul before setting your house in order. In fact, the outer path might just be the way to reach your inner peace

"The best things in life, such as love, integrity and justice, also expose you to pain....Aztec ethics embrace this tension: that meaning arises from choices that involve risk. A well-rooted life accepts heartbreak as part of the price of significance."

Even Clinton, who signed the ICC's Rome Statute as one of his final acts, refused to submit it to the Senate for ratification until an evaluation of jurisdictional issues could be made.

W formally withdrew the possibility of ratification once the Rome Statute entered into force in 2002.

We suck.

a cartoon character with blue hair is asking if we still the good guys . ALT: a cartoon character with blue hair is asking if we still the good guys .

To the great shame of America, No.

The Rome Statute for the ICC was never ratified by the Senate after signed by Clinton in 2000.

W advised the UN Sec General on 5/6/2002 that US would not ratify. Thus US has no obligation even as signatory to uphold the general purposes of the ICC.

We suck. Ugh.
