I've seen multiple comments that are like, wow this is so classy, these people had taste before they had money, this is furnished so practically and I think I'm being punked.
photo of a wood paneled den with wall sconces, admittedly comfortable looking armchairs, but a framed print inexplicably mounted onto one of the built in shelves so that it obstructs access to the clearly staged decor-only books and bric a brac. definitely the decor of a normal person who lives in their home like it's a home.

ugh. love him tbh.
How would you describe that worldview? My father told me something when I was very small to instill confidence in me: “Nobody in the world is worth more than you, but nobody’s worth less.” It is an egalitarian view that I’ve carried around in my life. That’s why I am for free schools, free universities, free health care, and free babysitting. Because our society could afford it. In America, people think social democracy is some kind of communism. They think capitalism is freedom. It’s not. It’s only freedom to exploit people.

I mean, I think the fact that you believe this is a lot of the problem with liberal as an ideology.
All I meant by human rights was some category of fears that are walled off from government intrusion. If you say, I believe in freedom of speech, freedom of religion, private property, freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures, and I don’t believe in social security, I don’t believe in a right to a home, I don’t believe in a right to be free from discrimination, I don’t believe in a right to education, then you can still be a liberal.

i know you don't believe me but it's literally her pinned post
the only important part of this image is that it is a screenshot of the pinned post of the above cited account, with a series of 4 text-heavy images promoting her book about being a missionary kid and the font in every single one of them is Papyrus.

gurl. idk what's worse. the "ex-CIA," the "Exvangelical" or the fact that she used Papyrus like a goddamned psychopath to promote her book.

Knowing the type of wasp nest could also be critical — some wasps make nest out of dirt and others use different material which could pinpoint where the contamination came from, Tom Clements, executive director of the group, wrote in a text message. “I’m as mad as a hornet that SRS didn’t explain where the radioactive waste came from or if there is some kind of leak from the waste tanks that the public should be aware of,” Clements said.

There's a *real* AltNPS right there
According to The Coalition to Protect America's Parks, a multi-page PDF containing these comments was leaked by a national park employee who took screenshots of the comments pages on their computer and then shared the PDF with parks advocacy groups.

The fuck?
The Trump administration is attempting to use a process known as direct final rulemaking to surreptitiously strike long-standing civil rights protections under Title IX, Title VI and Section 504 without going through the notice-and-comment period typically required for new regulations, advocates say. Also unusual—the Department of Energy is issuing the regulations.

Sam is discussing the concept of Civil Gideon - extending Gideon v. Wainwright to all civil representation. Slides are mostly stats related to this idea.
Civil Gideon: 19 million cases in lower civil court filed each year = 30-40 million litigants 60-70% pro se 28 million people with active cases without lawyers 1.3 million lawyers in the US Each lawyer gets 21.5 new clients per year?
