My current car is about 3 years old and is the first car I've ever owned with a backup camera. I never had issues backing up before 3 years ago. Just got a new to me truck that's old enough to not have a camera. It's shocking how much harder it is to back up once you become reliant on that thing.
Expanding First Amendment exceptions unnecessarily is very, very risky. The government is much more likely to wield it's newly expanded powers against marginalized people than it is against the powerful.
I think my water heater repair person could use a refresher in effective (and non-terrifying) communication….
I had a magistrate judge try something like this to one of my clients last year. My client was represented, so I raised a shit storm up and down the court system, and he was released within 48 hours. 1/2

Hey spam caller, when I tell you what you're doing is illegal and you just immediately hang up on me, it doesn't exactly make me believe that even you think you're doing anything legitimate.
This seems both factually incorrect and disrespectful to say about her given everything she did and when she did it but what you need to remember is that CNN wants you to know it’s good to like her, which you’re not supposed to do if she had strong convictions
CNN@cnn.com · 5d ago"At a time when no American celebrity seems immune from the country’s many divisions, Dolly Parton was a crossover icon who stayed neutral in the culture wars while still speaking her mind," writes Zachary B. Wolf. | Analysis
Dolly was decidedly NOT neutral. She advocated for the right things, whether popular or not. She advocated for the LGTBQ+ community, in favor of medical research, vocally supported the trans community, and funded an AIDS documentary (among so many other examples).

I *despise* the notion that came up constantly that "the genie is out of the bottle" or whatever. It wasn't true about CFCs. It wasn't true about DDT. It wasn't (entirely) true about atomic bombs. We don't HAVE to live under the tyranny of horrible inventions just because they've been invented.
We can regulate shit. We can ban shit. We can take it out of the hands of the worst billionaire apocalyptic scumbags who have ever lived on planet Earth. To just throw up our hands and say "might as well become part of it because it's here and it writes my lesson plans for me" is fucking enraging
It seems that news of Dolly Parton’s death has resulted in a flood of joyous stories and clips and photos of her. For a brief moment, she has managed to erase the toxicity of social media. A parting gift, if ever there was one.

It's worth reiterating every time the Trump regime performs one of these murders that they are murders, wholly illegal, & everyone in the chain of command from the president on down to the officers who fired the weapons should be prosecuted for their crimes in aiding & abetting the murders.

Anyone else remember when some Tylenol got tampered with and people died? The whole industry changed seemingly overnight. How about the shoe bomber? Overnight security changes to how we fly. How many deaths that we know about with chat bots? What are we even doing??
I get Trump's love of being surrounded by sycophants, but she'd hardly be the first crazed stalker to turn on the object of her obsession.

Learning when you've won and you need to shut the fuck up because continued talking can only possibly change that is one of the key skills that so, so, *so* many attorneys need to learn. If you just watched the judge rip the shit out of the other side for an hour, maybe consider a short argument.
