It’s not that I think people who commit heinous crimes don’t deserve to die. But I’ll never support the death penalty as long as our justice system is unjust. An unjust system should never have the power to make irreversible decisions, especially when Black people disproportionately pay the price.

Wow! Schmitt didn’t just get it wrong, his team was warned the texts were unvetted, but he used them anyway. Not only that, Chuck Grassley’s Judiciary staff left the texts out of its own hearing memo. Schmitt’s team went digging for them, then used them to accuse Jack Smith of perjury.

Going to Point Loma Nazarene and Liberty Universities probably played a role in how weird Natalia Harp is around men. Men & women can’t have “unsupervised private lingerings,” premarital sex, PDA, or make out. She was practically *groomed* to have dysfunctional relationships with men.

Happy #InternationalBeerDay! Here’s a 2,000-year-old whopper of a tankard from Iron Age Britain, designed to hold 4 pints! 🍺 🍺 🍺 🍺 Probably passed around for communal drinking! Cheers! 🍻 Oak staves sheathed in bronze. From the River Thames at Kew. London Museum 📷 by me #FindsFriday #Archaeology
My photo shows a large Late Iron Age cylindrical bronze tankard displayed on a pale grey museum plinth at the Museum of London Wall (this museum is now closed for relocation). The vessel is constructed of oak wood staves encased in beaten bronze sheet. It has a rolled rim, three horizontal bronze plates and a cast bronze loop handle soldered to the middle plate - shown on left in my photo. Dark, fragmentary, weathered wooden staves can just be seen inside the top of the bronze tankard plates. Dated c. 100 BC - 50 AD.

Measurements of outer bronze casing:

Height 15.2 cm
Base diameter 18.3 cm
Rim diameter 17.6 cm
Width (including handle): 19.6 cm

The tankard would have held just over two litres (four pints).

It was probably used at large ceremonial feasts for the communal drinking of beer or imported wine. Drinking was an important part of feasts and ceremonies. Vessels such as tankards were often placed in rivers or graves after being used. This one was found in the River Thames at Kew. It is part of the Layton Collection on long-term loan to the Museum of London

Medicare and Social Security have long been the “third rail of politics.” But CMS just announced it’s ending a subsidy that stabilizes premiums for Medicare Part D drug plans — covering nearly 25 million people. The timing? Open enrollment starts Oct. 15… less than three weeks before the midterms.
