Gee, I wonder why Justice Thomas might be friendly towards the accused in a public corruption case. Maybe Harlan Crow encouraged him.
"I said, I said, Boy, don’t go forgetting who lines your pockets. "
When Barrett was nominated, my comment was, “she is the kind of woman that would vote to make herself chattel.” Anything even remotely rational from her is a win. Historically, the Court has had a tendency to make justices more liberal. They’re generally smart people and exposure to well argued positions does tend to make you think.
Of course Thomas is out there besmirching the entire legal profession with his shameless acceptance of graft. I wonder if he lets Harlan refer to him as “boy.”
Separate apps for various retail stores. I don’t want a home depot app. I don’t want a kroger app. We have a generic app for this category called a web browser. If you want me to download a specialized app for your store, I assume that means that my browser does not sufficiently breach my privacy for your “business purposes.”
Caught in the act of rape? Permanent damage would not be a bad outcome.

“Our newspaper is in such dire financial straits that we can’t afford to turn down any adveriser.” does bad things to employee morale and shareholder enthusiasm (which we all know is what really matters). When the truth is too damning, you cannot run with it.
This is why ancient humans invented mob justice. When the laws don’t work, order still needs to be imposed.
Really it has no impact on most of us. I have never used a partnership tax basis shift and almost certainly never would have. It is going to cost a bunch of obscenely wealthy jerks some money and cost the rest of us nothing. Win-win.
Don’t forget Herbert Cain (safely dead from the Trump plague), so he can’t deny being Donald’s friend (donated to Trump, so must be reasonably friendly with him).
I have never heard him deny it.
With my luck, I would only get my surgically removed wisdom teeth back.
Don’t forget Bigfoot, the rake, and skin walkers.
All government contractors have to be “woke” to get the contracts. I am surprised the alt right isn’t blaming the government for ruining defense contractors with mandatory DEI (I jest, they definitely are).
I am probably the target audience for the traditional Cracker Barrel customer (50+ white male). I have not been in years. The experience was wholly unremarkable. I can’t hear the name without thinking of Chef from Southpark asking the children, “How are my little crackers?” If I wanted to catch covid, Cracker Barrel seems like a good place to look. Other than that, CB seems like the restaurant most likely to have a Stars and Bars flag available for purchase.
What I hear: "The evidence before the court is incontrovertible, I clearly committed the crimes alleged. "
When Ministry for the Future starts to happen sooner than expected… poor people
I don’t believe gibbons can fly, but they should lead with something more relevant like “gibbons are terrestrial as opposed to aquatic apes.” ;)
I am scared of what Google ai thinks of the aquatic ape hypothesis.
And yet 2023 was the new all time high for carbon emissions, at least until 2024 is in the book. We will not cut emissions until we run out of easily extractable carbon to emit. We’ll be building solar powered pumps for oil wells at some point for the otherwise negative EROI. As a species, we deserve the consequences of our behavior. Too bad they will be most severe for some of the least responsible first.
