I’m retired. My main job now is petting dogs. I have 3, but random petting is always in the cards

Serious question. What’s the advantage to conservatives to slashing social security and Medicare? People aren’t just going to disappear. It’s easy to say there’s an economic advantage, but really it’s not clear that there is. Anybody have an answer it theory

“What the American public wants is for us to bring actual weapons to this bar fight”. This we need to fight back against the shit-eater, Elon Musk.

@maryfisher.bsky.social thank you for your work. I taught public speaking and every semester showed your speech. My students were always moved and curious about a time they don’t remember. Continued good health to you

The NAACP is re-mixing 1930s-era "don't buy where you can't work" campaigns to confront the neo-segregationists targeting DEI.

Best phrase I've heard to describe our current political "leadership": "Confident Stupidity" I would add, a character trait of white dudes who could not succeed on their own

Fantastic article by Balko on junk science and the judiciary
A variety of legal "expert" areas have been exposed recently as "junk science," but this particular article, on what's been going on in Illinois, is a wild ride.

About "forensic firearms analysis. This is the field that claims to be able to match a bullet or shell casing to the gun that fired it."
New from me: One step forward, two steps back.

The only thing that bugs me about being an Atheist is that there won’t be a moment post death when people like Anita Bryant realize how wrong they were

When I was a kid the Detroit Lions had a traveling basketball team going from town to town playing the local all stars. I went a couple of times. The player I remembered most is Charley Sanders, the great tight end. I believe he was the first person I ever saw dunk in a game

Not one school shooter has ever been given the death penalty.

Not one.

U.S. government is seeking the death penalty for Luigi Magione.

Proving that one rich CEO is worth so much more in this country than any child.

Disgusting.

Interesting to note that so many assume the killer was radicalized by religion and not by his time in the military
