Lots of questions. Wandering the zeitgeist looking for answers. Also, women and law go together.

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

trans rights frankly is a top 5, potentially top 3 issue for me despite not being trans and not having any trans family being bigoted against trans folks not only hurts my trans friends and every trans person but is so predictive of further bigotry

A grim reminder this 4th of July: The US has the highest incarceration rate of any independent democracy on Earth, making it a leader in mass incarceration. Far too many people are locked up in the “land of the free.”
Graph showing that the U.S. incarcerates people at a rate of 614 per 100,000. This is at least 4x higher than any other founding NATO countries.

It turns out, the answer to the question: “Would I watch the gladiatorial games sponsored by the hated emperor designed to distract the public from the regime’s failings?” is “no.” No I would not. Glad that’s been cleared up.

I knew the scaffolding made no sense. They could have used two cherry pickers and called it a day. We waited all day and night because the scaffolding wasn’t there to do the work. It was there to hide the letters from view while they were being removed. Trump is embarrassed.
