I have euthanized hundreds of animals with pentobarbital. It sounds like they blew the vein or missed it entirely and were pushing the drug in to the soft tissue of her arm, not her vein. She asked if her arm "was supposed to feel this way". It is not. She shouldn't have felt numbness, tingling, etc

As a former student journalist at the Ohio State Lantern, where we routinely took heavy flak for holding truth to power, I couldn't be prouder. We HAVE to rebuild the watchdog press, and tear it away from the oligarchs who have smothered it. We're finished as a nation if we fail.

The current huge story about the gang rape at Cornell University, a crime originally brushed off and covered up by the administration, is SOLELY the product of the student paper, the Cornell Daily Sun, which doggedly pursued the story. Not the NYT or CNN. An independent student paper. #Cornell

Reminder of when Chotiner interviewed Joe Biden's ambassador to Israel, Jack Lew, and Lew said that it was OK to kill the children of Hamas fighters. Lew and others in leadership also let slip that the purpose of the USAID humanitarian response in Gaza was to support Israeli military objectives.

Thinking of my friend's father who still insists "someone just randomly sent" CSAM to his phone and he just oopsie clicked a random link... His kids know what he did that he wasn't prosecuted for. Bitter, miserable, and resentful describes him well.

or irrelevant because we should just ignore what is legal because the right does. But here's the problem. YOU CANNOT DISMANTLE A SYSTEM UNLESS YOU KNOW HOW IT WORKS. And the fact so many people think otherwise is a major problem.

Explaining how the law and legal system works is not a defense of either. There is a growing sentiment on the left - I see it every day! - that explanations of the legal system (like, for example, why Mamdani can't legally arrest Netanyahu) are making excuses,

The thing about this person is that they're frequently full of shit. Their Wikipedia source says: "A myth persists that the initial batch of Iron Rings was made from the beams of [...] a bridge that collapsed during construction [...] due to poor planning and design by the overseeing engineers."

The time to push candidates toward more progressive policies is NOT after they get in office. It’s before. We have to look out for everybody. That may include a type of person that is not in your life!

Thank God someone's finally standing up for the group who has suffered most in comics. Men. I'm a fan of Brubaker who thinks there's a real chance he's innocent. But when it comes to "online mobs," far more women & minority & LGBTQ+ creators have been mercilessly harassed online than white dudes.

A decade ago my husband used to have to chase scrappers away from the foundry where he worked with, uh, things that would be considered weapons outside of the foundry property. Historical markers don't have burly guys with sledgehammers and other blunt objects guarding them.

My mom has faced the exact same issue after bumping her head (badly!) and getting a concussion. It's really, really hard to keep/seek/get/keep a job with a TBI. It doesn't help if you come across as "high functioning" and thus not in need of services because you have a large vocabulary.

Things I was frightened of as a child: 1. the vacuum cleaner 2. the bathtub drain 3. the creature that lived under the claw foot tub and ate all the slimy hair from the bathtub drain 4. the witching hour (midnight to 1:00 a.m.) 5. dad's Makita power drill (I am still afraid of the vacuum cleaner)
