Also a pretty good description of successful habeas lawyers:
I would be very worried if my parents *were* having children.
As for the alleged sperm-count and testosterone problems, may I suggest Ivermectin or bleach?

RFK Jr: "Today the average teenager in this country has 50% of the sperm count, 50% of the testosterone of a 65 year old man. Our girls are hitting puberty 6 years early ... our parents aren't having children."

Today is the 81st anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising. Over two months, 265,000 Poles died during the fight, while Soviet forces watched on the east bank of the Vistula and did nothing.

Let me get this straight: An indicted war criminal nominates a convicted common criminal for the Nobel Peace Prize on the basis of a bombing raid that was an unprovoked and illegal act of war.
Peace is war; war is peace.
Tinkles, a bit, the Vietnam bell: We had to destroy the village to save it.

A lot like each jury, maybe even each juror, having to define "reasonable doubt"—and what is beyond it—for her-/himself.
Not saying there is a solution to either problem.

When I asked a former Air Force missile-squadron commander if senior officers could refuse the order to launch nuclear weapons, he said: “We were told we can refuse illegal and immoral orders.” He paused. “But no one ever told us what *immoral* means.”
America’s nuclear weapons are under the sole authority of the president, @radiofreetom.bsky.social writes. Does that system still make sense?

I think it's important to understand how cypto-currencies collapsing could crash the non-crypto economy. I am sure I don't.
One by one all the firewalls that preserved the rest of the economy when FTX and other crypto firms collapsed in 2022 are coming down.
The OCC, the regulator for national banks, rescinded its requirement that banks get the agency's approval before doing business with cryptocurrencies & crypto companies.
Not surprising, but this'll bring a lot more risk into the banking system which is backed by the public.
