Big abortion win in PA today - the ban on Medicaid funding is unconstitutional!

AND there's a fundamental right to abortion!

We won!

(Though this Commonwealth Court opinion can be appealed - we'll see what our AG does.)

Well, this makes me feel better about myself and more wistful about the lost 90 minutes staring at it.

From the woods to the web: ‘Stand By Me’ and the traumasphere | Opinion Watching the classic movie with my son opened a conversation about trauma, about being a boy then and now, and about the weight of the past and abandonment by society.

Cuts deep if you are raising a little boy, if you are old, or if you are old raising a little boy.

I haven’t really followed a team since that Mark Karcher Temple team flamed out, but I think the movement is even more consequential for that caliber of school. If you are one of 20 teams that can have a mercenary championship, OK. But the rest of em also get the movement, just with no actual hope.

I am unclear if they are making digs at the judge or giving client #1 approval for additions, but either way, it is really something.

Human beings don’t lose pounds per day from being sick, at least in the way that it is conveyed here.

They get dehydrated and have less food in their stomach and waste in their intestines. Then they eat and drink and it basically goes back to normal.

One of my favorite story types: when reporters credulously convey that an athlete lost an insane amount of weight from being sick for a few days.
