Damn. We share a birthday. Her life was too tragic and cut too short.

On important issue with dealing with this crisis is getting people the treatment they need. This might require forcing some people into treatment. Excerpt from LA Times article below. TL;DR about 2/3rds of people on the street suffer from mental illness or substance abuse with a large overlap of people who have…

I know in comics Starfire has orange skin, but it always made sense to me when I think about “solar powered” heroes that their skin tone should be as dark as possible, to absorb as much actual light as possible. I mean it still doesn’t make much sense, the amount of energy you take in from sunlight isn’t going to make…

The guinea pigs were the ones who did the clinical trials. If the data comes back with minimal side effects it should be as safe as possible. Most of the worst medical crimes against black people historically targeted them as a group. These vaccines, plural, are designed for the general population. Although I…

This is a perfect example of why cash bail is total crap, and why I voted to get rid of it in California. Your ability to pay should in no way influence whether you stay in jail or not.

The first person to raise their hand when asked “Will you move to Canada?”

Stupid, not informative on chemistry and should not have been on the test. Teacher should not have done that, I saw that as someone who has taught chemistry (and history, and biology).

The show is Burn Notice: Star Wars edition. Minus a steady crew (add Lone Wolf and Cub set up) and that is what the show is. There is the episode of the week set up, “Someone needs help Michael” instead just becomes “Someone needs help Mando”. Each episode also has a small push forward on the season wide plot and will…

I loved Monica in Nextwave and the 616 Ultimates series. I was way to young in 1986 to follow anything involving systematic racism.

Not his college professor...but yeah, Miles HAS been cloned a ton of times. See current issues to see how and why!

I am going to go with a simply, good, it was past due to happen.

I know this is a review of the PS5, and there is also a review of the new Xbox. Will there be a “head to head” review?

I think an important point was raised on Bill Maher (who actually called the election on Friday). The data on who voted for Trump is wildly off for minorities because the polls were of DAY OF VOTING, which we can clearly see depressed the Biden vote which was largely early voting/mail in. No real evidence exists that…

As my wife pointed out to me, Harris is also the first Asian VP, don’t forget she is a triple “first” pickup!

Eh, I don’t want it close because faithless electors are a scary wrench in the system I do not want to worry about.

As a white guy, thank you.

I did not sleep well and I probably won’t until I know how this is decided. Which is stupid; I should not tie so much of myself to a presidential election, but damn Trump is just on another level of bad.

True points about the average fees, which is why those with lower debts were targeted by the initiative in order to maximize the impact on voting.

...um....um....I can’t even. This is just, well stupid. I mean it’s evil, obviously to work in Nazi ideology and direct quotes from Hitler into your training materials, but it is also just plain stupid. Modern racists learned how to use dog whistles and all kinds of sly crap to maintain systematic racism. These yahoos…

Good news that even a conservative justice in the feds did not think this passed the smell test.
