WTF?! How did the school not call the police? Last year there were anti-abortion protesters with graphic signs outside the HS during dismissal. There were also younger kids present because of private school bussing. Because they were on a "public sidewalk" the police couldn't do anything. I really don't understand how this stuff isn't considered a public disturbance though

This is messed up The state of Alabama plans to execute a prisoner in January using nitrogen hypoxia, a process so novel and untested that state officials required the man's spiritual adviser to sign a waiver that said he could be exposed to the gas. The acknowledgment form, exclusively obtained by NPR, also reveals that the spiritual adviser, Rev. Dr. Jeff Hood, is required to stay at least three feet away from the prisoner, which may violate both their religious liberties. If Alabama proceeds with the execution, it will be the first time any U.S. state uses nitrogen gas to put a prisoner to death, but the second time Alabama attempts to execute Kenneth Smith. www.npr.org/2023/12/12/1218591962/alabamas-upcoming-gas-execution-could-harm-witnesses-and-violate-religious-liber

Anyone else do your WaPo year in news review? I got trailblazer.
"The Trailblazer Confident. Practical. Curious. You may have described yourself as a "news junkie" at some point in your life. You pride yourself on knowing a little bit about everything — and you’re probably MVP on trivia night. 13.3% of Post readers had the same reader type as you."

Welp, guess I was wrong above when I said I have never hated a group more than SCOTUS. It feels very . Like, their constituents are in need of real solutions to life-threatening problems, and all they fucking care about is evening the score because their president was an actual factual criminal who was held accountable, and they are too childish to accept it. Infuriating. I wish the Dementors would come and drag them all to Azkaban where they belong.

I'm being a little hyperbolic, but for some reason that has really been irritating to me these past couple days. And I have no problem with getting rid of water beads, it's just the bigger issues part.

🤨 'Four hours after testimony wrapped in the civil-fraud trial against Donald Trump and the Trump Organization Wednesday, the lower Manhattan courthouse was evacuated after someone set papers on fire and then used multiple fire extinguishers on the same floor as the judge's robing room. The judge in the case, New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron, was in his robing room when he heard shouting on the floor at around 4:15 p.m. Wednesday. He was safely escorted out of the courthouse.' www.businessinsider.com/manhattan-courthouse-evacuated-donald-trump-new-york-civil-fraud-trial-2023-12

I love this. But right now anytime they do something good, it is going to be overshadowed by their position on supporting Israel. They just keep digging themselves in a hole and no good legislature is going to help with certain voters who are incredibly angry.
