BREAKING: After a year of nonstop pressure — from the media, activists, and the Senate — the justices of the U.S. Supreme Court have adopted a "Code of Conduct," per a release from the court today. There is no apparent enforcement mechanism. More to come at Law Dork: https://www.lawdork.com/

Having "no apparent enforcement mechanism" is on par for SCOTUS trying to police itself.

LA County just agreed to pay a reporter $700k after she was slammed to the ground and arrested by LASD while covering a protest -- making this likely the largest payout to a reporter in connection with covering a 2020 protest so far.

What's wild is that the county apparently had such a weak case they agreed to settle before a suit was formally filed. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-11-08/l-a-county-to-pay-700k-to-radio-reporter-arrested-while-covering-2020-protest

Maybe it was due to a judge finding her "factually innocent" on March 16, 2023.

Why Evangelical women are leaving the church
https://www.chron.com/culture/article/evangelical-women-deconstruction-religion-17012629.php
"After centuries submitting to the church’s patriarchy, ‘deconstruction’ has empowered Texas women to question the tenets of their faith—and it could change the face of Evangelicalism for good." With quotes from Beth Allison Barr. Cc @ulmfn h/t @lisamelton

girlfreddy,

@jmccyoung @kwheaton @ulmfn

A fundamental Protestant tenet is that first and foremost the relationship between God and an individual is personal. Therefore no one should be judging anyone else on their faith (or lack thereof).

That ideology developed out of Calvinism and is borderline heretical.

Fuck the ON NDP and fuck . That idjit wouldn't recognize anti-semitism if it slapped him in the face.

I am so sick of these self-righteous politicians jumping on the bandwagon to save their own sorry asses.

A huge blast in Gaza was filmed live on Al Jazeera channel.

Now Israel wants to ban Al Jazeera in Israel.

Netanyahu has been trying to ban Al Jazeera since 2017. He is nothing but a dictator.

Why can't we force manufacturers to be responsible for their own package recycling? We don't get to choose the packaging they use, so shouldn't they be paying for shipping and recycling of said plastics.

Reagan and Thatcher were the worst things to happen to the world, at a time when we were at the crossroads between taking climate change seriously or allowing unfettered capitalism to rule us all.

My grandma was a nurse on the polio ward, specifically looking after people in iron lungs. And when I was a teenager I had a friend who'd had polio.

Diseases like that are no joke.

girlfreddy,

@colorfiend @kcarruthers

Yup. My friend had a normal size head, chest and left arm but his legs and right arm were withered. He had to use crutches and was on disability.

Vaccines are important and do not cause autism.

"Practising medicine is not "an assessment" It is a history, physical exam, differential diagnosis, testing where needed, plan for follow-up & documentation accessible to others.
Ontario could support publicly funded primary care, but it chooses for-profit corporate earnings"

Ontario voters sold their soul for some -induced vague promise to "get it done" ... which of course has happened, just not in the way voters thought it would.

Welp. That's the end of Kevin McCarthy

Kevin turned to the only sensible people he could turn to in order to avert catastrophe

...Democrats

Vote: 331-91

I was asked, some years ago, which political party I would vote for. They wanted to know what my ideal party would be. At the time, I didn’t have a simple answer.

Political parties are not simple.

I composed this reply at a time when I was actually considering a career in politics. This is my description of policies of an ideal political party.

I'm surprised MBS hasn't made an appearance yet, even if it's only to compare notes on assassination styles.

At this point in world relations I'd be shocked if a visit by MBS would cause any fallout at all. SAE may get weapons from from America but America needs SAE oil more.

Cyberattacks hit military, Parliament websites as India hacker group targets Canada (www.ctvnews.ca)

The federal government is coping with cyberattacks this week, as a hacker group in India claims it has sowed chaos in Ottawa, but Canada's signals-intelligence agency says the 'nuisance' attacks likely haven't put private information at risk.

Because everyone is courting India right now and Modi is revelling is his moment of glory, thinking he's as powerful as Putin used to be.

Typical big fish/small pond actions.
