Member of Supreme Court Bar resigns, announces in LTE in the New York Times:

"It is clear that the majority is not acting as a court, but as an unelected political body ignoring every rule of law it was sworn to uphold."

This legitimacy issue is not liberal propaganda, it's real.

I drove by this synagogue the other day to renew my car tag.

They had a barricade with armed guards checking parents coming to pickup their kids from camp.

Disgusting that they have to go through this every day because if some #Nazi POS.

"Let's join together to end Nazism in our lifetime."

Another wonderful bounty from my blackberry bush! #gardening #berries

I have been noticing a lot of squirrels on my bird walks as of late mostly foraging on the ground looking for the food they have hidden.

As I was scanning the trees for birds I noticed this squirrel perfectly positioned on a branch.

Got this spectacles holder in India for my father over a decade ago. He put his glasses on it and went to bed. The next morning he howled in laughter when he saw it again. I have now inherited it. Stupid shit like this become family heirlooms.

Flashback to the time when I bumped into a hotel worker in a hallway and they asked me if I’d like some water and I said “sure!” and they handed me a CASE OF WATER for our two-night stay.

Clarence Thomas Entered an Elite Circle and Opened a Door to the Court

The exclusive Horatio Alger Association brought the justice access to wealthy members and unreported V.I.P. treatment. He, in turn, offered another kind of access.

"Justice Thomas has received benefits from a broader cohort of wealthy and powerful friends. They have included major donors to conservative causes with broad policy and political interests and much at stake in Supreme Court decisions"

I recently read a long thread on mastodon about several small, easy to implement self-care and self-soothing techniques the author said worked well for them. One of the earliest techniques described was simply.. going on a walk outside while quietly verbalizing everything you are thinking internally in your mind grapes 🧠. I was like, how can this possibly work? I wasn't sure about it. Then I finally got around to remembering the technique while on a walk, said "Why not give it a shot?" then tried it.. and holy cow! It did seem to work. 🎉 I wasn't sure about the advice and didn't like/bookmark it at the time I read it, so I can't find the thread. I was wondering if anyone remembered seeing a thread like this somewhere?

belarusian victoria azarenka says "it wasn't fair" she was booed off court by #Wimbledon fans after losing a thriller to Ukraine's Elina Svitolina, 2-6 6-4 7-6

Hearing the jeers as she walked off Court One, 33-year-old azarenka paused as if to ask why and made a gesture to the spectators before disappearing.

Svitolina has not shaken hands with russians or belarusians after matches since the war in #Ukraine started.

New #silentsunday for a new server!

Yep, I'm going on another rant. When you start learning about First Wave Feminism, it's shocking how radical it was. One of the major ideas was to get women out from under household chores, so they could have time to pursue things they were actually passionate about. The ideas were radical and very socialistic, communal lifestyles where people share chores, so everyone has time for what they want to do, and little underground trains that brought you meals, and took the dirty dishes away. Now it feels like we got a half-hearted sexual revolution and a microwave, but women still do the majority of housework and childcare. There are more women in the work force than men, and there are more women with higher education than men, and there is STILL PAY DISPARITY. Somehow women are working harder than ever. How the hell did that happen?

Unsurprising. Membership rules for #NATO require that the country applying for membership not be in a border dispute. #Russia had effectively vetoed Ukrainian NATO membership when began occupying Ukrainian territory in 2014. (Which makes the claim that NATO membership motivated the 2022 "escalation" even more nonsensical.)

That being said, if anyone has earned the protection NATO membership brings, it is the Ukrainians. Bringing into NATO forty million people who just sacrificed enormously for freedom also could wake up the people of other member countries that take freedom for granted.

"#Biden Says #Ukraine Is Not Ready for NATO Membership

President Biden said in an interview that aired on
Sunday that Ukraine was not ready for membership in NATO and that it was "premature" to begin the
process to allow Ukraine to join the alliance in the middle
of a war."
