You know how rare it is to be universally loved? Like truly universally? Not a single person, left, right, rap to country, urban to rural, hated on Dolly. A lot of people didnt jam her music, prefer her style, or even like her movies. Everyone still loved her. Like truly loved that woman. Humanity is a whole lot darker without her in it. Fucking legend. What a ride.

A lot of people confidently opining on the Lindsay Clancy trial have clearly not watched any of it.

Witness after witness, including her ex-husband, has described how she was in crisis: intensely paranoid, scared to be alone, repeatedly begging for help. The prosecution has had a *very* hard time rebutting it. Some of the government's cross-examinations have been painful to watch, like when prosecutors asked her Catholic ex-MIL—who testified in Clancy's defense—if she was aware "murder is considered a mortal sin." At times they've been desperate.

If Clancy is acquitted by reason of insanity—and I think there's a chance she will be—a lot of people are going to be shocked and outraged. But this is quite literally why the insanity defense exists: because the law understands there is an obvious and meaningful difference between a sane person plotting out a murder, and someone who would otherwise never kill but does so because of a disease outside of their control.

No, that doesn't mean any normal person thinks murdering children is excusable—an accusation so profoundly stupid and bad-faith that I'd expect it from someone with the critical thinking skills of a 12-year-old. It means people recognize the distinction above.

Nor does it mean Clancy would go free, which a strangely large number of people seem to believe. She would be confined to a state hospital—which is a lot like prison in many ways—where she could plausibly remain for the rest of her life. The biggest question here is where, not if, she will be locked up.

It's a horrible case. Her children are the victims. What she did to them is beyond appalling. I feel awful for her husband, who has lost so much. And yes, I also have compassion for Lindsay Clancy, who did something terrible when it seems she was very ill, and whose life—no matter what the jury decides—is forever broken in so many ways. All of these things can be true at the same time.

A man ignored the no-smoking signs and lit a cigarette in the beluga interaction area – until a beluga whale ended the stunt with a perfectly aimed jet of water that extinguished the cigarette on the spot.

@cmclymer @jcarole I think now that he is “home” they are going to announce he died of a heart attack or stroke in his sleep. I believe he has been dead for quite some time and they are using it to their advantage. But that’s my opinion.

@CoffindafferFBI If he lied and said he killed them when now he is saying he did not… doesn’t lying break the plea deal?

A woman had Netflix for 6 years.

She opened the app. She scrolled. She picked something after 25 minutes. She fell asleep during episode 2. She repeated this every night.

Her friend, a former Netflix UI engineer, sat on her couch one evening and opened Settings on her account. He changed 9 things in under 15 minutes.

Her homepage transformed overnight. The autoplay trailers stopped. The "continue watching" list cleaned itself up. The recommendations got sharper. The buffering on her 4K TV disappeared. The categories multiplied from 30 to 2,200.

She said "it feels like a completely different app."

He said "it is. You've been using the factory settings for 6 years. Netflix ships the version that keeps you scrolling longest, not the version that helps you find something fastest."

Here's every setting he changed 🧵
