We recently learned this skunk that had been living under our shed was hit by a car. This skunk got our dog three times, once at the beginning of each year. But after that? They were cool. Even got nose to nose once. We're gonna miss him :(

Tenessee 🤛🏻 election fraud
Text from the article This is not the first time this year Trump has pardon a convicted Tennessee Republican lawmaker. In March, former state Sen. Brian Kelsey received a pardon from Trump, just two weeks after he reported to federal prison to serve a 21-month sentence for an illegal campaign finance scheme he pleaded guilty to in 2022.

Keep kids out of jail cells.
The image is text from the article: The screenings seem to be identifying the right candidates, Pubentz said. All nine participants did appear for their arraignments the morning after their arrest, she noted, and 75% of them are considered to have successfully completed the program, meaning they were not charged with new crimes or sent to the detention center. "I think it shows community members that kids can be maintained safely in the community and don't need to be placed in detention," she said - even kids accused of some of the most serious charges. Pubentz pointed to research that shows incarceration is often not necessary to protect public safety, and even one night in detention can have a negative impact on youth and sometimes push them further into the system. But a graduated response model with incentives for good behavior and sanctions for misbehavior can work to hold youth accountable for their actions and prevent future criminal behavior, she said.

He died fighting for the Russians. What does a mental health issue have to do with him fighting for the Russians..? How do we have the son of a ranking CIA member join the Russian military and we don't say that out loud..??
Text from the article. It reads: "Juliane Gallina and her family suffered an unimaginable personal tragedy in the spring of 2024 when her son Michael Gloss, who struggled with mental health issues, died while fighting in the conflict in Ukraine. CIA considers Michael's passing to be a private family matter for the Gloss family - not a national security issue," the spokesperson said.

Text from an article. Text reads: Superman was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, both children of Jewish immigrants, and debuted in 1938 as "the champion of the oppressed" who "had sworn to devote his existence to helping those in need."

This bit has got to be AI.

"Because officials are using so many of their resources on shooting victims and to try to neutralize the shooter or shooters, the fire cannot be put out, Norris said."

That's the thing though, if you're wrong because you're racist and you're reading things through a racist lense, that just means you're wrong and racist.
Text from the article Students took their complaints to Ms. McAlister, the interim dean. She addressed the granting of the award to Mr. Damsky in at least two town-hall-style meetings, according to an email she wrote to students and an article in The Independent Florida Alligator, the student newspaper. In the February email, the dean wrote that the law school, as a public institution, was bound by the First and 14th Amendments, meaning that no faculty member may "grade down a paper that is otherwise successful simply because he or she disagrees with the ideas the paper advances." Institutional neutrality, she wrote in her email, "is not agreement or complicity with the ideas that any community member advances." "It's just that — neutrality," she added. "The government — in this case, our public university - stays out of picking sides, so that, through the marketplace of ideas, you can debate and arrive at truth for yourself and for the community." Some at the law school agree with her stance. In an interview, John F. Stinneford, a professor at the university, said that it would be "academic misconduct" for a law professor who opposed abortion to give a lower grade to a well-argued paper advocating abortion rights.

Here's a fox article from Feb '23 saying this is actually a *good* thing.

The only good part is that it says that men can have babies! www.foxnews.com/media/brain-...
Smajdor also suggested that brain dead men "would also have the potential to gestate" which would increase the pool of potential donors and mitigate feminist concerns. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP "The prospect of the male gestator could thus appease some feminists who might otherwise feel that brain-dead gestation is a step too far in the objectification of women's reproductive functions," the report stated. "The prospect of male pregnancy is not, as many would imagine, fanciful, or a piece of science fiction," Smajdor claimed.

This is from a different article, but let's hope Pam keeps her word here.
Lol
In a statement on Tuesday, Attorney General Pam Bondi said she welcomed the guilty plea. "This calculated attempt on the life of a sitting U.S. Supreme Court justice was a heinous attack on the court itself," she said. "Anyone who thinks they can use violence or intimidation to influence our courts will be met with the full force of the law and face up to life in prison."

The reasoning made me actually chuckle out loud
Text from the last paragraph of the article "When asked why Rogen's potentially embarrassing comments were excised, a spokesperson for the Breakthrough Prize Foundation said, "This year's ceremony lasted longer than the prior few years, and several edits were made in order to meet the originally planned run time." Rogen could not be reached for comment. (The Hollywood Reporter is the media sponsor of the Breakthrough Prize Ceremony.)"

Feels like the government is using chatgpt to write their documents too
Text from an article reading: The U.S. government claims on Reyes Mota's I-213 form, a document the Department of Homeland Security uses to support that someone is deportable, that he "may be a Tren de Aragua associate." But in those same documents, the government says he has no criminal records or immigration history in the United States. The government also uses someone else's last name in several parts of the document, identifies him with female pronouns, and uses two different unique identification numbers that immigration authorities use to keep track of individuals, raising questions about the reliability of Trump officials' accusations against him.

People from all over, deported, without telling them, to a country thousands of miles away, and a "figure it out" as they are released with less than what they had when they were seeking asylum in the first place.

That doesn't seem all that humanitarian to me.
A picture of text from the article, reading the following: Migrants said they were also told they would only be allowed to leave the camp if they agreed to sign a document saying they had not been mistreated — potentially making it hard for them to file legal claims later. The following day, IOM and Panamanian officials entered the camp again and told the migrants that they would be asked to vacate the premises in a matter of hours, setting off a new wave of pandemonium and anxiety among the detainees, most of whom speak no Spanish and have no contacts or places to stay in Panama. Omagh, who understood what was happening because he'd picked up some Spanish when he migrated to the United States through Mexico, texted about the upheaval. l asked, if we go to Panama City, what will happen there? We are refugees. We don't have money. We do not have nothing. The IOM told me 'it is your responsibility.' I don't know what will happen there, but I'm sure that IOM, they will not help us.

When you add all these together, you're teaching kids to question science and what we know as fact, and therefore journalists who speak in facts, and then tell them they're just smarter than everyone else, and that's why their logic doesnt need questioning from arguments appealing to their emotions.
A screenshot of text from the article, it reads "The third and fourth grade “Art of Thinking” curriculum provided by TFS, along with PowerPoint lessons for that course at the fifth and sixth grade levels from Houston ISD, show students are taught to: “distinguish between emotion and logical reactions,” “determine the objectivity and subjectivity of various media,” and “compare and contrast the scientific method and a problem solving methodology,” among other skills. "
