“It’s hard to know what to say about former Republican Speaker of the House Denny Hastert…” Maybe, at least somewhere in the article, say that he was a child molester? You don’t have to fit your story into a newspaper column. There’s room to pontificate and still say that he molested children.

The number of media outlets whose headlines don’t read, “Dennis Hastert, child molester and long time Republican House Speaker, dead at 84” is infuriating. Not disappointing or surprising, because I don’t really expect better. Just infuriating.
A long screenshot of news headlines related to the death former Republican US House speaker Dennis Hastert at 84 years.

Many of them reference his conviction in a “hush money” case or mention that he went to prison or that he was disgraced in some way. Very few place the phrases “child molester” or “child sexual abuser” in any proximity to the word Republican as they should.

Last spring I learned that my daughter puts a non-working hand-me-down decoy phone in the Yondr pouch every morning so she can use it during her (off campus) lunch period.

TIL that a perforated sheet of twist ties that haven’t been separated yet is called a gang. So there should be at least a gang of twist ties. Then if somebody suddenly needs a dozen of them you can whip out that gang. Hall of fame.

Pointing out that a focus on information security has upsides is not an assertion that everyone should make the same choice nor that it’s without downsides.

Yeah, I didn’t say it was the most anything and I think it’s obvious I was throwing out one example of a multitude of possible choices that prioritize infosec over site security.

So I think they can file a suit alleging that the reporting was false through negligence or malice and caused reputational harm. There’s no reason a clerk would reject the filing. I even think it might survive the first motion to dismiss. But they’ll never win.

…any right of access to US courts. However, the US Supreme Court ruled in 1871 that Emperor Napoleon III of France had the right to sue the American ship Sapphire for damaging the French ship Euryale In San Francisco harbor in 1867. Affirmed in Government of India v. Pfizer in the 1970s.

Organizations, corporations, and businesses can sue for defamation. Article III, Section 2, Clause 1 Of the US constitution places controversies between US states or citizens “and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects” under US court jurisdiction but does not specifically grant these (cont’d)

I’m not remotely trying to make excuses for either of them. This was super shitty. More just an observation that one dimension of white privilege is saying and doing racist things without even being aware that they’re racist.

Many whites in my NW Ohio community in the 70s & 80s had no qualms about using the n-word. As a child in an environment of blatant racism I never learned to hear dog whistles. I knew “welfare queen” was racist but I was totally oblivious to so many things like “cotton picking,” “buck naked,” etc.

I have no doubt that he said it with racial malice and no adult in this day and age, much less a public figure, can claim ignorance about the phrase’s meanings. Also, boomer and Gen X white kids heard this in cartoons and never had to question what it meant. A glaring example of privilege.

We’ll do whatever it takes to reduce class sizes: Outbreaks of preventable diseases, driving away the citizen children of immigrants, the economic devastation of working families, ensuring that minors have the right to leave school and join the workforce… all options are on the table for the GOP.

Daud gets swallowed by quicksand, not Farrah. You may be remembering Lawrence shouting, ‘Farraj!’ repeatedly because he’s worried Farrah will also get stuck in the sand. Lawrence later kills Farraj because he’s injured and at risk of being captured and tortured by the Turks.

All the social programs were popular, successful, and un-controversial until Black people got access to them. Then suddenly they were government handouts, creating dependency, socialist, communist, we couldn’t afford them, they were bankrupting the nation, waste fraud and abuse, etc etc etc

Watch the seafood counter for snow crab leg clusters on sale. They’re much easier to crack than king crab and gentler on your hands. I think it tastes as good or better than king crab. Just steam it, crack it (I use kitchen shears), and dredge it in melted butter. You deserve it, don’t you think?

Reminds me of a boat trip back to the family cabin from dinner. Benedict Lake, MN, July 2023
A photo of a meandering channel through reeds and wild rice. The water is calm, rippled only by the progress of the boat. The clouds and the beginning of sunset are reflected in the water.

The reason you can’t give a single inch on anything be it trans rights or dignity for unhoused people is that they, democrats and republicans alike, will take it and say thanks what else is in your pockets? They won’t say thanks actually.
