"Being just John (Roberts), even here, has grown much harder. “From what I see, the barrier runs both ways,” said Mary Anne Mason, a friend and former law partner of the chief justice who lives in Port Clyde. “It’s harder for him to feel comfortable approaching people — and vice versa.”" Good.

John Roberts Retreated to His Island. Supreme Court Critics Found Him.

After decades of potlucks and paddle-boarding on Maine’s midcoast, rising anger and protests have left the Supreme Court’s chief justice more isolated than ever.

Indefinite detentions. Shooting kids in the head. Starving and torturing. Dancing in dead women's clothing; and posting it on tiktok. Jailing and torturing doctors. Kidnapping and assaulting flotilla activists. THAT'S what I think of, when I think of Israel. Not camels.

Boy George's comeback has hit the skids. He was all set to play Herod: you know, the dude who "washed his hands" of Jesus, suffering? Instead, he had to bow out from the role. I guess using AI to write a song washing your hands of Palestinians suffering genocide was a little too on the nose.
