A "fatal shooting" that leads to a 20-year sentence for murder is also called "murder".

Look player, lemme save you some time.

I work as an elder and hospice caregiver, which I am oddly passionate about. I can love on them shamelessly and no one complains about my codependence. It's a win-win situation. Many of my caregiving colleagues complain about the repetitive questions and, sometimes reactions, of the elderly, especially when those patients happen to read the newspaper, especially with the current downward spiral of our country — as if these people haven't lived through enough horror... I love my dementia peeps, but sometimes wonder if there's a Guinness Book World Record for how many times an hour a dementia patient can repeat the same question — it's got to be in the hundreds. At least with small children, they ask different questions. Dementia patients will get stuck on one short question and ask it until you can interrupt their train(carousel) of thought and successfully redirect their attention. That carousel is pretty manic sometimes. A couple days ago, I picked up my mail from the post office and drove over to the nursing home to take (let's call her "Miss Daisy") Miss Daisy out for a drive. Before we took off on our road trip, to the end of The Road and back, in our landlocked little town (Juneau, Alaska), I set my copy of The Onion down in front of her. Over our two-hour excursion, tiny Miss Daisy read that front page at least a dozen times and each time she would snicker, giggle, and guffaw, then put it down on the dash board and, a minute later, discover it anew. I think it was the best afternoon of my life. We don't often hear them laugh and when they do, it's the sweetest thing you've ever heard. ... Thank you, thank you, thank you, for the really important work all of you do. You make the world a better place.

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.

The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.

This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional.

We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident.

He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

Tweet from @tomgara Randomly on this subject, my (Egyptian) wife had never heard of Stonehenge when I mentioned it recently, so I showed her photos of it, assuming she’d recognise the look but not the name etc, and she was just like, this is pathetic, your ancestors were small and weak

Remembering this great tweet on the Summer Solstice

Minnesotans have every reason to react, and if you think about, everyone should have been reacting this way since Portland 2020. To Hell with Trumps masked up KGB-wannabes. SWAT them all.

Seeing beautiful things can calm the mind. When you are tired or feeling down, it is important to go outside and see various things with your own eyes to change your mood.

Judge orders Trump admin. to restore hundreds of terminated NIH grants "I've never seen government racial discrimination like this," the judge said.

A bit of good news:

A federal judge just ruled that the NIH must restore research grants cut under the banner of “gender ideology” and anti-DEI backlash.

The judge—a Reagan appointee—was scathing, calling the cuts “palpable” racial and LGBTQ+ discrimination.

FIFA drops anti-racism, anti-discrimination messages for Club World Cup

America is one of those countries where if you host a global sporting event, inclusive messages have to be censored to so as not to anger the central government. In this case the message is “racism is bad” www.nytimes.com/athletic/643...

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

Let's all be the rain on this motherfucker's parade.

Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman.

She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

A warrior woken stands on the skull of a fallen beast. The caption reads ‘off with his head’

kind of obsessed with 2025 pride merch...I'm calling it cowardcore.

Oh no! Be well, little buddy!

Is it too much to ask for an IRS Commissioner who understands the law?

Oooo

Still not doing much art, but I really hope to change that soon. Recently returned to an old job that I absolutely love. Snuggling cats when I'm not working. Trying to manage my health as best I can.

Sometimes I take photos of shiny things. It's pretty fun.

This is bleak reading

Who could've guessed joining a make-believe Resistance against an Evil Empire would ever happen in real life?

For fuck’s sake!!!

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

What the fuck are we doing here?

My job requires that and Bloodborne Pathogens certification. They pay for it, which is dope. The most recent version of the American Red Cross first aid/cpr/AED course has LOTS of info. Including stop the bleed style things
