People used to sneer at me for talking about Trump's long-standing suppressed attraction to men, but as his filters drop it becomes more and more obvious.

The questions today go to "whether or not I've been lied to. Whether I've been lied to in the declarations about the plan, whether I've been lied to about the timing of things, whether I've been lied to about what kind of notice the court was going to receive."

If you don't understand the relevance, says Judge Reyes, the government has a much bigger problem than I understood it to have.

She keeps shouting at the DOJ attorney for not immediately calling plaintiffs and notifying the court the MOMENT they found out what the NPS was going to do late on Oct 8. DOJ's attorney responds and says "we did our best" and Reyes responds: "You did not do your best. You did your absolute worst."

I think we've gone past "pretty close to outright shouting" to outright shouting. She's currently excoriating DOJ for delay. "Do you have email accounts? Do you have cell phones? Do you have regular phones? Do you have the ability to get into a car and go to where plaintiffs are and tell them?"

the thing I don't understand about this is that there is an enormously deep "back catalog" of works, particularly science fiction and fantasy works, that were written by men who were not only writing for men but seemed to have at most a vague idea that women existed

Everything written about Columbus by people who lived and worked alongside Columbus makes it clear that he was evil by both today's standards and the standards of the time. We don't have to speculate on it, we can read accounts at the time worried about divine retribution for Spain's colonialism

Part of the problem with "settler colonialism is the root of all evil" is that it's at most the root of all *successful* evil. There are worse worldviews; settler colonialism simply finds them unprofitable and/or boorish, and eventually replaces people who have them.

St. Sabina Catholic Church in Chicago has placed more than 100 crosses outside the parish. Each bears the name of someone who died in ICE custody or during an immigration enforcement action. Union workers built the traveling memorial, which began at Holy Name Cathedral last month.

In case you aren't knee-deep in the latest MAGA conspiracy theory, this is a response to the "bombshell" that James Talarico spent the past week-plus secretly seeking treatment at an Ohio mental health facility, and a GOP operative broke the case with a late-night phone call.

One day after the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and the National Association of Evangelicals came out against the Pentagon’s plan to livestream an execution, Pope Leo has published a tweet reiterating the Catholic Church’s opposition to the death penalty.

Pope Leo XIV • @Pontifex• •4h
X
The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person. The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption.

The grim irony is that if Trump hadn't started his damn fool war with Iran, we could have shifted much of those interceptor stocks over to Ukraine to protect Ukrainian civilians and then we would actually have the leverage to ask Zelensky and Ukraine not to kinetically sanction Russian oil.
