    Our culture is so sick, folks kill themselves with opiates. Blame the opiates. Our culture is so sick, folks kill others with guns. Don’t you dare blame the guns.

    Eldest daughter just graduated from UT. I’m, of course, very proud of her. Four years ago, though, before she graduated HS, she convinced Hays HS to make their only single commode bathroom open to anyone, student or faculty, to avoid the type of fracas which we see now and was predictable then. Micro-biology, infectious diseases, and social justice; impossible for me not to brag on her.

    Continuing to believe that Democrats spend more than Republicans, despite the stats of the past fifty years, is weird. Steering toward the thread topic:

    Official intrusion into a citizen’s private affairs bothers some folks only insofar as the citizen is a Manchurian fascist. The Bill of Rights exists to protect authoritarians as they seek despotic rule. Throw out any notion of a right to privacy, small government needs to map urethras, and criminalize empathy.

    Add in suicide by firearm and the balance sheet gets even more lopsided. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/people-in-rural-areas-die-at-higher-rates-than-those-in-urban-areas/

    After an enjoyable night of work, I turned on local cable, to learn Texas’ legislature was coming to the end of this session, (and saw R Perry stumping for online sports betting.) I send this wish to the universe: may each Texan come to face the consequences of their vote.

    New essay out by Stonekettle “And I don't expect any better from the Press than I do from Donald Trump. They are one and the same, made for each other like a snake eating its own tail. Depressing? Sure, but it's no different than it's always been. From the broadsheets of the British colonists to the yellow journalism of Hearst and Pulitzer to the content scraping blatant plagiarism of outfits like Occupy Democrats to this latest stunt by CNN, in America, the media has always been about profit first, second, and last.” https://www.stonekettle.com/2023/05/caveat-emptor.html?spref=tw.

    There are times the psychos complain gun laws aren’t enforced strictly enough, then there are most times.

    Replace counselors with chaplains? What’s the difference between chaplains and youth ministers, aka the profession seemingly most likely to include child rapists? What could go wrong?

    Anonymous message board dude is so much more reliable than the NEJM, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, the Endocrine Society, the American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association. These are the groups that have the ideological worms, not the hate engines on the right. Not to mention those researchers whose names are on their studies. All those folks are suspect. Unlike el-anonarcissist.

    Having trouble reading this evening? The article I linked says you are full of shit. Address Scientific American’s current missive, or fuck off.
  18. Willfully Horn
    No, it isn’t. Scientific American republished the article, in March 2023, to counter actual misinformation which is cited when legislators push anti-trans bills. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-the-science-on-gender-affirming-care-for-transgender-kids-really-shows/

    I agree. My politics are left of center. I view our parties as right of center and wingnut right. So, I am curious which Dem legislation is broadly viewed as radical. I can think of one, the college debt relief program. What are some others?

    Thanks, Troph, for the head’s up. Church of God, Transgender, then. I agree that God is in all things, male, female, and neither. My point is this SCOTUS seems to go out of its way to protect religious rights, and therein lies a position to fight back against state oppression.

    While it is nice to hear good news, it is also somewhat depressing that we are at the point we have to engineer fixes to the damage we have wrought. https://www.nbcnews.com/now/video/engineers-develop-water-filtration-system-that-removes-forever-chemicals-171419717913

    Well, the societal cost of just one white collar crime, which might as well be defined as those crimes which police do not investigate, wage theft, the stealing of duly earned wages, is three times the amount of all robberies, shoplifting to bank robbery. So, yeah. This source says three times as much. https://www.edelson-law.com/blog/2022/10/wage-theft-outpaces-all-other-theft-in-america/#:~:text=Unfortunately%2C the truth is that,other types of theft combined.

    There ought be a Church of God, the Transgendered. Obviously, trans folks don’t see their gender identity as a religious issue, and I am not suggesting they should. Still, such a church should create religious protections, as recognized by this wingnut SCOTUS. Not trying to offend, I guess I ought to say. But, I would respect a church that focuses on an obvious truth, that creation is, shall I say, fluid, with respect to gender, infinity more than the heretical prosperity gospel.

    Crow funerals. Remind me of a folk tale I’ve heard about cattle. I’ve never witnessed it, despite living in a rural setting where cows were ubiquitous. But I do love the imagery. The rale goes that cows gather to. Inclement the place where another cow has died, and that the circle grows larger, meaning increased radius/diameter, with each passing day. Like I said, I should have seen such, but I did not. Still, I like the thought.

    While this is uncorroborated, who would be surprised? I’m putting this here for the fucking irony.
