The Supreme Court sided with this dissent:
Um.... This is an actual judicial opinion (dissenting in the TX gerrymandering case)

"...Newsom has vetoed our menopause bill, not one but two years in a row. But that's OK, because he's not going to be governor forever. And with the way he's overlooked women, half the population, by devaluing us in midlife, he probably should not be our next president either."

just to drive home the point. Texas created this map in August. the lower court rendered its decision November. So three months later, a year before the election in question.
The word "eve" is doing a lot of work here in the Court's 'decision'

I can't believe @kenplume.bsky.social has never shared this rare Disney documentary footage of the Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers theme song studio recording session, where legendary keyboardist Perry "Pecker" Spelgowitz performed the vibe-defining synth keys part in a SINGLE TAKE.

The alleged infringement? "[A] painted commemorative plate that featured images of Abdul-Jabbar. Puckett originally purchased the plate, which bore a licensed NBA trademark, from a Goodwill store. In April 2021, he sold it through Etsy for approximately $30."

it is an underrated miracle of the 21st century that we really did massively, massively reduce bullying in schools
My experience as well. So far we're 2-for-2 on kids having a largely bullying/abuse-free middle school experience. Not without bumpy spots of course, but light years away from what I endured.

My hot take: the anti-bullying stuff has really worked, which is why conservatives are pushing back at it.
for what it’s worth I got roped into helping out with my sixth grader’s extracurricular thing so I’ve had more recent contact with middle schoolers who aren’t mine than I usually do, and biased sample/biased reviewer/etc but my verdict is that the kids are all right

I said what I said. I have no problem with gender affirming care surgery. I'm vocally pro gender affirming care surgery.♥️👍🏿

I have a problem with transphobic people pretending that cis men and boys are not *by far* the biggest category of gender affirming care surgery.

The Massachusetts church in question here is Saint Susanna Parish in Dedham, Massachusetts, and the "ICE was here" sign comes from their reverend, Rev. Stephen Josoma.

It's not enough for AltNPS to not cite a source. They can't even give the reverend himself the credit he deserves!

@swordsjew.bsky.social I'd like to know which foreign country 29% of Republicans think evangelicals are so attached to.
losing my mind at the 25% of GOP voters who think most Italian Americans are "more loyal to a foreign country than to the United States."

4/ A concern I hear a lot is that children get “too many” vaccines. They don't. Kids get about 54 doses over 18 years that protect against 17 diseases. The number of antigens in vaccines is tiny compared to everyday exposures, like the 8–12 viral infections kids naturally get each year.

My fear is that announcing they got the guy and fucking up the production by moving prematurely on weak evidence might be something Patel views as win/win
Cole could certainly be the perp. But having read the FBI agent's affidavit in support, the evidence used to identify him is entirely circumstantial and extremely underwhelming. I hope they nailed the right dude, but this, coming after five years, is very unconvincing.

Where’s the CBS News town hall focused on the Democrats assassinated in Minnesota?
Bari Weiss has a CBS town hall set with Erika Kirk, widow of Charlie Kirk.

If you want to attend, you're asked a series of questions on an online form.

The first question is: “Do you consider yourself a conservative? If so, why?”

I am working my way through the affidavit supporting the arrest warrant for Brian J. Cole as the DC Pipe Bomber.

As I expected, he fits the stereotype to a T:

- Guy
- Twenties
- Lives at home with his mother
- Short (5'6")

My guess is that we will find evidence he described himself as an "incel".
