A U.S. appeals court has cleared the way for a Louisiana law requiring poster-sized displays of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms to take effect
The six judges who voted against the decision wrote a series of dissents,
with some arguing that the law exposes children to government-endorsed religion in a place they are required to be,
presenting a clear constitutional burden

Court clears way for Louisiana law requiring Ten Commandments in classrooms to take effect
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has cleared the way for a Louisiana law requiring displays of the Ten Commandments in public classrooms to take effect. The full court voted 12-6 to lift a block placed on the law that a lower court first issued in 2024. In the opinion released Friday, the court said it was too early to make a judgment call on the constitutionality of the law. But the six judges who voted against the decision wrote a series of dissents, some saying that the law exposes chil…

I remember reading cases of "wrongful birth" in which children sued their parents for withholding care (or using voodoo "natural' style medication) resulting in the child being damaged for life.
Seems like that notion - child's rights vs parents - ought to be expanded.
"It’s not just vaccines — parents are refusing other routine preventive care for newborns"

New parents are shunning proven preventive care for their infants in effort to be 'natural'
Doctors across the nation are alarmed that skepticism fueled by rising anti-science sentiment and medical mistrust is increasingly reaching beyond vaccines to other safe and routine care for babies. A recent study in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that refusals of vitamin K shots rose steeply between 2017 and 2024. Those shots can prevent potentially deadly bleeding. A subsequent research review found that U.S. parents who declined vitamin K shots were 90 times more likel…

I woke up angry today.
ICE spokesperson Lindsay Williams is a liar, who is bad at lying.
“Asked if the ICE officers chased Lopez, Williams said: ‘Chased? I wouldn’t say that. They followed him until he crashed.’”
Wouldn’t say that? How about: ICE was committing crime (their standard procedure), someone died, they’re the killers. Your people killed a school teacher, Williams.
Have the day you deserve, you apologist scum.

Driver fleeing ICE traffic stop crashes, kills teacher near Georgia school
Authorities in Georgia say a Guatemalan driver fleeing a Georgia traffic stop by federal immigration officers crashed into another vehicle, killing a teacher who was headed to work. Oscar Vasquez Lopez, the 38-year-old driver accused of causing the Monday crash just outside Savannah, remained jailed Tuesday on vehicular homicide and other charges. Court records don't list an attorney for him. An Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesperson says officers were looking to enforce a 2024 deport…

It's January 4th and I've already got a few orders this year for my little hobby business.
One from the UK, one from Ireland, and one from Switzerland.
Last year we shipped close to 80% of the orders to the US and almost 20% to the UK, with a few other countries besides those two.
I do feel like I'm seeing fewer US sales since the beginning of 2024, file that as you will.
Overall sales were down a bit in 2024 but I did a few larger projects for folks that …

Schon seit ein paar Wochen bin ich ein Album der Woche schuldig. Weil ich wegen anderer Dinge nicht so richtig Zeit fand zum bewussten Musikhören, rotierte »Really Good Terrible Things« von North Sea Echos (erschienen 2024) hier mehrere Wochen im Player.

James Talarico’s victory in the Democratic Senate primary race in Texas
was powered in part by a sizable advantage among Latino voters,
a sought-after group that Democrats are hoping to win back.
Latino voters, historically a Democratic-leaning group,
have been slowly shifting to the right, including a significant move toward Trump in 2024.
This year’s midterm elections will be closely watched to see whether these voters who were moved to support Republicans tw…

How Latino Voters Helped James Talarico Win in Texas
The state legislator’s apparent strength with Latino voters in the Democratic primary for Senate suggested that he might be able to make inroads with a crucial demographic that has shifted away from his party.

Meerjungfrau - Mermaid, Copenhagen, Denmark 2024 by me

I generally hate buying new computing devices and try to make them last as long as possible. I bought a used/refurb iPad 5th Gen in 2022 for $199 and got 2 years of solid use before I upgraded to a 6th Gen in 2024 (for $170) so I could use an Apple Pencil.
I then put the old 5th Gen on my trainer bike as a video player and it still works great.
But sadly, two years in the 6th Gen now has dead spots on the screen. I may need to replace it.
