I’m so very sorry for your loss. No matter how long we have them for, it is never long enough. May he RIP.

It is an absolutely excellent book and you will learn so much about these incredible women.

The federal prosecution will be screwed because the DP is the only big bargaining chip they have for a plea. They are afraid to try him in front of a jury.

I just finished an advance copy of Strange Animals by Jarod K Anderson. It’s a wonderful mix of fantasy, nature, and the human condition. Wonderful characters, fantastical creatures, and a series of compelling questions that we all ask ourselves. Drops on February 10. Highly recommend. πŸ“šπŸ’™

I just finished an advanced copy of Strange Animals and wow! What a unique and fascinating book. I could not put it down. Please tell me there’s going to be a sequel. It is a wonderful combo of fantasy and nature and humanity. Now I need a recipe for sassafras tea!

Earlier this year, Utah Republicans passed a "Campus Carry" law (HB 128), which allows individuals aged 18+ to carry a firearm, either openly or concealed, on college campuses, provided they hold a valid Utah Concealed Weapon Permit (CWP).

It’s eye opening to me that so many of these missions fail or go wrong. People need to know about those. β€œSeal Team 6 β€œ is considered a synonym for infallible excellence, and clearly shouldn’t be.

Do you think this brilliant campaign of Newsom’s is going to put him at the top of the list for democratic gnomes in 2028? Is he a viable candidate after this?

Without question they did. How gross for her to deal with that.

"He walked 8 km to get there. No shoes. Probably hadn't eaten in days... he set down his bags and he put his hands on my face and he kissed me... he left and the IDF opened up with machine gun fire... There were dead Palestinians. He was one of them."

You need to watch this. It’s long (29 minutes) and it’s hard to watch. And then you need to share it, because every single American needs to know what we are doing.

That is absolutely true, but there is no denying that they are racially profiling people they are grabbing off of the street. There are a lot of lighter skinned people who still think nothing like that could ever happen to them. This clearly shows otherwise.

It didn’t occur to me until earlier this year that someone could make their own incense. I can never find one that I like, so I am looking forward to making my own.

So if you can get a medical professional, or someone adjacent to a medical professional, to declare someone as mentally ill, you will have a legal path to have them institutionalized. This should terrify every person in this country.
