The arrest comes two months after Alexia Moore was rushed to the emergency room in Camden County, pregnant and in extreme pain.
Doctors at the Southeast Georgia Health System hospital delivered a severely premature baby girl who lived for approximately two hours, according to police.

I just finished my ~4th play through of the TV series Mom (2013). My quick review.
(very mild spoilers)
Mom is one of my favorite post-2000 comedy TV shows. The show follows Christy, an alcoholic in recovery, as she tries to juggle work, raise two kids, and rebuild her messy relationship with her often‑chaotic alcoholic mother, Bonnie. Many alcohol, drug, & sex references, so not kid friendly.

A quiet but significant expansion of the US surveillance apparatus is taking shape inside DHS — built from travel databases, biometric systems, location data markets, AI analytics, and tools like Palantir’s ELITE platform.
In this report, I trace how investigative reporting from Mother Jones, Wired, and 404 Media reveals the architecture of a system capable of tracking Americans’ movements, identities, and digital lives.

The Inheritance: When the Body Remembers What the Mind Cannot
Some secrets do not stay buried. They write themselves into blood and bone. They pass from grandmother to mother to daughter through mechanisms we are only beginning to understand. The Inheritance, the second novel in the Fractional Fiction series, asks what happens when a scientist trained to study transgenerational trauma in laboratory mice discovers that the patterns she has been mapping exist in her own…

Dear Europe and others,
I've had a busy day.
I had work all day - as a hospice chaplain taking care of dying people.
This morning my mother went to the hospital for testing related to her dementia. Then, in the late afternoon she fell and had to go back for more testing. She's OK now.
And ICE shot a woman who did nothing wrong. And will probably get away free.
I'd love to protest in the streets but I'm just trying to live. I'll do what I can.
