It is no small thing for Alito to publicly rule out overturning Obergefell. The justices have sent other signals that they’re not interested, but this one closes the door.

The Alito Court: A rare interview with the influential Supreme Court justice

Justice Samuel Alito discussed his opinion in the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, the leaked draft and its aftermath, same-sex marriage rights and why he's not retiring yet.

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

On the one hand, it’s comforting to know that Americans aren’t uniquely stupid, voters everywhere have skulls filled with mush and worms. On the other hand, global fascism is probably not an ideal state of affairs.

he is haunted and yet he still fails to acknowledge that his very own vote for Trump is directly responsible for this take some fucking personal responsibility man

"Well, we wouldn't have had to take care of Pierre. Pierre was doing what he was supposed to do," Jack said. "We did not do right by him."
He was beginning to believe that the Trump administration was "a joke," and that the Democrats were no better. "Everything is broken," Jack said.
He started going over it all again. The morning that began so normally. The cornfields and wildflowers. A young Haitian man named Pierre Damas Bel whose

CNN making this sound more mysterious than it is. It was Yersinia pestis, the plague, the researcher died because she inhaled it into her lungs and developed pneumonic plague, there is no danger but to those directly exposed in the lab. Fear-mongering in the time of global terror is a sick choice.

I don’t think everyone realizes how bad things are for US science: For the fiscal year that just ended, the Trump regime withheld $1.4 billion from the National Science Foundation’s research budget, which is about 1/5 of its primary research budget.

nytimes.com

National Science Foundation Diverted $1.4 Billion in Science Funds Mandated by Congress (Gift Article)

The move, affecting about one-fifth of the National Science Foundation’s primary research budget, is the latest sign of how the White House is asserting more control over grants.

Okay this reminded me, had HUGE issues with Tiger Bread, always went squish, tried minimising the downward pressure and it got much better. Also love slicing tomatoes with it as this article suggests. cookingflavour.com/what-is-a-br...

Here’s the thing — the serrations do all the hard work. Each tooth acts like a tiny cutting point. Together, they spread the cutting force across many small pressure points.

That’s why the blade can pierce a hard crust without flattening what’s underneath. A smooth blade would need heavy downward force, which crushes the soft crumb. The serrated edge cuts cleanly with almost no pressure at all.

The motion matters too. You use a sawing motion — forward and back — like cutting wood. You don’t push straight down. Let the blade do the work. That’s the secret every skilled baker knows.

Think of a serrated bread knife the way you’d think of a handsaw. You wouldn’t press a handsaw straight through wood — you’d move it back and forth. The bread knife works exactly the same way.

Do you know when my wife died of cancer? Her doctor was awesome. The dude look good smell good smart. I'm not against the practice. Shouldn't he be accountable for how many cases he lost. How many people died underneath his care it's been 200 years. Chopping on people. It's time that you are accountable for the death that you cause. In the name of science. If God is my witness. You will be held accountable.
