My aunt died a couple of hours ago. Her kids were with her, and her best friend, and everyone else had had enough time to visit or write. For years, she was the recorded voice of British Telecom (no residuals, as she often remarked) -

On August 28, 1955, Emmett Till was abducted, bludgeoned and brutally murdered by white supremacists. He was only 14.
His horrific story should never be forgotten.
And with the site of his wake finally designated as a national monument, we're helping make sure it isnโt.

A perfect example of how Fox brainwashes its viewers: by sharing some real information (a man did just paint a mural of Trump's mugshot in Atlanta) but concealing important facts (the completed mural shows Trump saying: "M.A.G.A My Ass Got Arrested") xitter.gq/billyheathfox5/status/โฆ
Still a pandemic, my friends.
With early signs indicating the COVID-19 caseload is poised to grow in the weeks ahead, Health Canada is actively reviewing three new vaccines specifically designed to target an Omicron subvariant of the virus.

They came in bullish for a ridiculous delay.
They threatened to flood the docket with motions to derail the administration of Justice.
They hemmed. They hawed. It was bad political theater.
Judge Chutkan wasnโt having any of it.
He will get his day in court.
He will have time to prepare.
He will be judged by a jury of his peers.
To someone whoโs felt entitled their whole life, it was a rude awakening.
An awakeningโฆto the rule of law.

Kids deserve to go to school free of gun violence.
Teachers deserve to give lessons free of gun violence.
Shoppers deserve to buy groceries free of gun violence.
And on and on.

Had a long night so I drove thru for breakfast & the car in front of me paid for my order. Itโs important to keep society civil where we can bc there are enough bad actors bending the arc of justice negatively. Thank you kind stranger. Batten down the hatches for the hurricane.๐ฉต

This is such a tragedy.
These (mostly young) people taking all this risk, all this abuse, caring about the ecosystem, but only knowing to demand ever more mining, manufacturing, fossil fuel burning - and never knowing to ask for #DeEnergize #Slowdown, do less of everything slower

Additionally, special counsel is funded through a fund at the US Treasury controlled by the Attorney General. Jack Smithโs work would continue in the event of a shut down.
NEW: A government shutdown wouldn't halt Trump's trials
DOJ says criminal litigation is an essential function that stays funded
Instead, House Republicans are pushing to use a funding bill to defund or rein in Trumpโs 3 prosecutors

Personally, I'm impressed. Scenario looks like an enormous meat-grinder and "extreme complexity" is probably an understatement. May Ukraine rid itself of every invader and may there be justice for those who deserve justice.
From a military point of view, the Ukrainian army today is solving tasks of extreme complexity, none of which have been experienced by any army since World War II. This deserves at least respect, and in fact great admiration. None of our allies' military operations in the Middle East in the 1990s or 2000s can be compared to the Ukrainian counteroffensive, as we are attacking a well-prepared defense without having a numerical advantage and without even ten percent of the forces and means that our allies operate with. Like, for example, thousands of hours of air raids before the start of the ground part of Operation Desert Storm. And yet, we are advancing. And we are advancing every day, pushing the Russians back and liberating our territory. The question is why Russian defense lines became possible at all. It has to do with the speed of political decision-making by our partners. Timing matters. Let's learn this lesson.

2 pilots and a crew chief. Tragic. Kind of thought that's how it would break out when I saw the number of KIA vs number on board, figured they were trying to maintain control right up to impact and do as little damage as possible to the passengers. Rest easy.
