    My podcast co-host. My Problematic Woman in crime. My birthday twin. My very dear friend. At just 26, was youger than me, but felt more like my big sister. I am in complete shock that we lost this beautiful soul, and am comforted only by the faith she had in the Lord.

    So you're saying if we eat meat, we don't care about the working poor, racial justice, and climate change? Interesting.

    Again, it should be noted that Sweden's strategy was to frontload the pain. There will be no second wave in Sweden because their policy will not change. Reporting that fails to take this into account is incomplete at best and dishonest at worst.

    Sweden has 6.08 deaths per million inhabitants, higher than the UK, USA and Italy

    I don't think we'll ever know where Norma McCorvey stood on abortion because I don't think she knew. It sounds like a sad story of use and abuse on both sides, that continued all the way to her death bed and now, beyond.

    In a new FX documentary, Roe vs. Wade plaintiff Norma McCorvey says that her 1995 turn against abortion "was all an act. I did it well too. I am a good actress.”

    🔥🔥🔥 Politicians think they’re more “essential” than our country’s first responders. Amazing.

    Why not lay off the politicians?

    It's this hard to fire a public employee.

    One of the disgraced Broward deputies fired for his nonintervention in the Parkland mass shooting has been reinstated by an arbitrator, with 16 months’ back pay. He was making $137,000 a year when he was canned.
