    @lufins-dad said in Carlson to interview Rittenhouse: Jon answered that question very well the other day. To try on the role of hero in extraordinary events and a historical time. I paraphrased a bit there, and it was the same as the protesters, themselves. Yes I've been describing the motivation of leftist protesters that way for years here. Jon just saw an opportunity to deploy the observation against a right-leaning person for a change.

    No matter the politics, a fair and unbiased judicial system is paramount to the function of society.

    Why didn't you say it was Boris in the first place? Now I am confident he had a good reason. Boris is too intelligent to not have a good reason, and I suspect he is communicating a need for a larger litter box, as in enormous. He's a very big boi! Really, I wonder if he finds the space too small to maneuver himself easily. We ended up getting a very large bin with high sides to keep one of our girls from peeing over the edge. She was a big girl with no sense of when her bum was extended past the edge of the old litter box, so the high sides worked for her in the new one. Try a larger and taller box. For the older babies to get inside, the box should probably also have a side entry for them. Good luck! LOL

    @doctor-phibes said in Kyle's Law: @horace said in Kyle's Law: Here's a thought exercise for the "both sides are equally bad" among us. Does the political right perpetrate these sorts of groundless prosecutions? If you're not just talking about the United States of America, then obviously the answer is yes. Yeah when I talk about this stuff I'm talking about American culture and where the pendulum's currently at.

    @mark said in Apple goes back to usability vs looks: Everyone Is a Genius: Apple Will Offer Parts and Tools for DIY Repairs. https://www.ifixit.com/News/55370/apple-diy-repair-program-parts-tools-guides-software Saw that a while ago, and I approve. But...considering the tech "savvy-ness" of the average guy, what do you think the success rate of DIY repair of iPhones., Macs, etc will be? I'd guess pretty low. I'm no tech guy, and I've replaced memory, hard drives and batteries on laptops. Good luck with Joe-blow from Berwyn (Chicago peeps will get taht).

    https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/20/politics/eddie-bernice-johnson-congress-retirement Democratic Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson of Texas announced her retirement Saturday afternoon after serving nearly 30 years in Congress, according to a statement from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Pelosi said in a statement Saturday that Johnson is "a dedicated and highly effective leader on behalf of Dallas area families and the entire nation for her thirty years in the Congress and nearly 50 years in public service." Johnson was the first Black woman elected to state public office from Dallas, according to Pelosi, as well as the first African American and woman to be the chair of the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology.
