Where are the fucking insurance companies?! They should be screaming about forced birth legislation that causes tens of thousands of dollars in medical procedures they would otherwise not incur.
Actor Michael Imperioli has something to say about the Supreme Court’s Friday ruling in favor of a Christian web designer who refuses to create websites to celebrate same-sex weddings.
Eh, they are becoming so extreme that they are leaving some of their voters behind. They were supposed to win the house in a landslide and they barely hung on. They are losing special elections because their candidates are too extreme. Even the Supreme Court can’t stomach some of their gerrymandering on race. I don’t buy this.
I married a beautiful woman who was here on work visa. This is my 3rd marriage and I genuinely felt a connection when we first met. Fast forward now, she reuses all the containers to store stuff in pantry. Like she will use the empty yogurt jar to store raisins. I asked her to not use empty jars instead buy fresh new jars from...
If this is the kind of stuff that makes you yell at your wife, your marriage will never last. You need a new perspective on what is really important in life. When you die, are you gonna be thinking about jars you bought at a store or the person you chose to live your life with? Lighten up, Francis.

The justices settled a question left open in 2018: whether businesses open to the public and engaged in expression may refuse to serve customers based on religious convictions.
I think this quote sums up how batshit this scotus is via David S. Bernstein:

A “whistleblower” who has repeatedly accused the Bidens of corruption has been charged by the Justice Department with arms trafficking, acting as a foreign agent for China and violating Iran sanctions.
Gal Luft, who is a citizen of both the United States and Israel, is accused of paying a former adviser to Donald Trump on behalf of principals in China in 2016 without registering as a foreign agent.
Prosecutors` say that Mr Luft pushed the former government employee, who is not named, to push policies that were favourable to China.
That is awesome. I don’t get why people don’t want to serve on juries anyway? It’s a civic duty and it will probably be only once in your life. It’s an interesting experience!
