Note to future self: if you're sending a letter abroad, USPS "Priority" Mail is definitely, deceptively NOT the way to go -- probably plain old first class would have been faster. Stuck in Chicago since September 13th for customs clearance and transport queue.

I hate the level of presumptive mistrust I now have in pretty much anything the USG and the DoD (no, I shall not submit) says, to include days of the week and the color of the sky.

Is a failed execution prima facie cruel and unusual? Assuming serious health impacts (defense counsel suspects brain damage), does executing a severely impaired but duly convicted person raise any ethics issue? Does TN have legal exposure for negligence? To me, it's a Pandora's Box of questions.

Dating apps caters to all the worst aspects of a ADD-addled society and discourages investment of time and curiosity in meeting new people and encourages looking at one another based on the shallowest of parameters. ("Man she knows how to hold up a largemouth, that's hot!")

I think representing people with very little actual experience with the legal system (contrast corporate clients) but with huge imaginations not always grounded in reality is one of the hardest parts of lawyering.

I mean it's one thing for Trump, in his disassociation from reality, to think this is a good thing, but people around him who don't have the cover of being 80-years old let this idea out into the wild.

I believe in the concept of the death penalty *if* the state were able to administer it *perfectly*, something we’ve demonstrated over and over is not possible. We’ve already put people to death later exonerated or deemed likely innocent, and now this.

www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... The irony of the state being so eager to put someone to death that it would appeal to SCOTUS to circumvent an appeal in progress and then galactically screwing it up.
