#LawSky friends - does anyone in WA have some family law expertise they would be willing to donate or provide at low cost to a friend? His ex - a law student - is railroading him in court, and he needs a rescue. I can discuss some details. @kathryntewson.bsky.social @questauthority.bsky.social

With regards to beef prices, have you ever tried a veggie burger?
They're actually really good. A little lettuce, tomato, pickles, a portobello mushroom, slice of Swiss cheese. Excellent.

BBQ (smoked brisket, sauce) is close to a religion in Texas. In that it is contentious, very profitable & marked by bloody schisms. Edgar Black started selling BBQ from his butcher shop in Lockhart, TX around 1934. It quickly rose to fame, drawing visitors to the small town in Central Texas.

She also really debunks the common justifications about religion, region, and age. Your grandparents and parents have shitty values because they have shitty values, not because of anything else. They could do better. Anyone can use their eyes to see the world and have the correct read.

Everyone was someone to Dolly, and she put every person at the same level. To her, fame and fortune were a gift, and whatever she didn’t need she shared. She taught us how to be polite, honest, and powerful at the same time. A legend has left the world.

I feel like this must have been done at some point, response poems are a storied tradition, but anyway I wrote "Margaret, Bringing Fresh Flowers" today and thought I'd share

Uncle Gerard, do you remember how,
when I was a kid, you found me crying
and I told you it didn't seem fair how all the nice leaves
had to die in the winter when I loved them so much;
and you told me, well, it gets worse from here,
and besides, it's not really the leaves,
you're a smart kid, they'll be back next spring,
but in the meantime you're right of course,
all kinds of things are going to die
and die and die and die and die and die,
your whole life, and it doesn't get easier,
it gets harder, because eventually you realize
all those dead hands go down pointing a finger at you,
and that's actually why you're sad, see,
because in a sense you're next,
even if it takes a while for next to get here?
And do you remember
how I said, Jesus Uncle Gerry,
can't a person be sad for a tree sometimes,
just sad about a tree?
Well, anyway,
you were probably right,
and you know this already,
because I tell you this every time I come here
but I suspect it's harder to remember things
where you are now
so I'm telling you again,
just in case.

I want to draw this point out a bit. If you go to the link you'll find the video of Grossman teaching a room full of cops how good it is to have sex after you've shot someone in the line of duty. There's no way Grossman would know as he's never shot anyone under any circumstance. 1/

This of course gets at one of the major problems of US policing: far too much of American law enforcement no longer tries to deescalate, rather they immediately escalate up the use of force. One of the primary drivers of this is the BS taught by Dave Grossman. 5/

A post from refutations to anti vaccine memes:

Photo of young Fauci and young RFK.

While RFK Jr was at Harvard, shooting heroin and using his name to skate through life, thought she was in medical school studying hard and learning stuff. So I think I'll just go ahead and be a tool at the deep State oligarchs and trust a medical doctor's advice over a junkie's.

In the real world, enduring progress comes through non-zero-sum cooperation over time, and anyone who has worked in a professional context knows that nothing makes such cooperation more difficult than the presence of egotistical men convinced they are bold risk-takers possessed of masculine energy.

I’m here late, but - #CopyFail demonstrates why mechanisms like #AppArmor and #SELINUX should be enabled by default. It’s also a reason why #Linux distros should follow LTS kernels and apply all patches upstream regardless of whether they appear to fix anything important.
