“Federal prosecutors in D.C. have been instructed not to seek felony charges against people who are carrying rifles or shotguns in [DC], regardless of the strength of the evidence, according to U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro and an email reviewed by [WaPo].” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Pirro’s office won’t pursue gun charges over carrying rifles, shotguns
A statement from Pirro on Tuesday said D.C.’s blanket prohibition on carrying shotguns or rifles “is clearly a violation of the Supreme Court’s holdings.”

Tremendous piece by Chris Person on the pointless mutilation of film history by morons, overeager tech-heads (a subspecies of moron), and directors who've gotten lost in the sauce of unbridled capitalism.

The 4K transfer of True Lies is what happens when a company uses proprietary tech to overwrite and denoise history.

I’m concerned that people won’t appreciate how big a line is being crossed here. Texas is suspending basic Constitutional freedoms for opposition lawmakers. This isn’t dipping your toe in the authoritarian waters, it’s diving head first into the deep end. This is big league authoritarianism.
Trump has done a lot of authoritarian things this year and IMO none of them is as authoritarian as restricting opposition legislators’ right to travel freely.
WILD situation in Texas right now: The House Speaker has required Dems, who just returned from their out-of-state quorum break, to have police escorts once they leave the chamber. One Dem is refusing to leave the House floor with escort, and GOP leaders have blocked press access to the chamber.

beyond the moral ghoulish ness I just don't understand the basic contention of how this is supposed to work as a defense. if a whole population of people was starving en masse, would one expect people with "pre-existing conditions" to be over or underrepresented amongst those who die first?
‘The people we have been starving were already quite ill’ is an admission of guilt not a defense.

coitus is only one part of the total erotic experience. For instance you can make him watch YouTube Mel Blanc scream compilations on your phone immediately after you’ve engaged in physical intimacy. You won’t find this in cosmo it’s real arcane feminine magic

Right or wrong, I hold queer people to a higher standard on trans issues.
When we cis queer people talk about trans issues against/over trans voices
it is carried off as 'SEE! SEE! EVEN THE OTHER QUEERS AGREE WITH US AGAINST THE TRANS'
In short, fuck Pete Buttigieg
