@NataniaBarron I was under the impression that the Founding Fathers fought a war a while back so that we wouldn't be beholden to English law or precedent.

As an "originalist", Alito seems to be playing pretty fast and loose with the people and documents he's referencing.

WTF, indeed.

[Christian A. Wakeman @CAWakeman]

@GhostofGoldblum @jeffvandermeer Exactly what I was thinking! It's such a complex, layered story; I'm not sure if any adaptation would/will ever be universally accepted.

Things you learn as a new parent:

The 'ABCs' song, 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star', and 'Baa Baa Black Sheep' are all the same melody and can be sung in a round.

Did everyone else already know this?

@tomddz @wonko101010 The base game is on Tabletopia for free. I know it's not exactly the same as in person. But I'd be happy to teach and play online.

I just backed Brick & Mortar on @Kickstarter https://t.co/y2k0myhAFl

@LoudBluePeg If you're looking for recommendations, I highly recommend @altonbrown method and recipe, tt's straightforward but nove. It's worked super well each year and we're doing it again this year.

@tim_virnig I highly recommend this game. I played the original with @JTGreiner and @PigPiranha and really enjoyed it. So, I late backed this one. It's a very accessible, tactical flip-and-write with great short- and long- term goal management and fun, balanced player interaction.

@pyranoir It was returning to its master, Beelzebub.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The Green New Deal is and has been lied about nonstop, and yet is STILL popular.

It’s a massive job-creation and infrastructure plan to decarbonize & increase quality of work and life.

It’s okay to call the GOP out on those lies just as we call them out on all their other lies.

[Christian A. Wakeman @CAWakeman]

@TheWildlifeHost No. I had the same question and had to look it up.

A standard Phase 3 trial is 300 to 3,000 volunteers.

At Pence's stated "tens of millions", let's say 30M and the high-norm of 3000 volunteers per trial that would be the equivalent of 10,000 trials

I wasn't aware that Qasem Soleimani was responsible for abortions in Indiana.

My take on Pence's comments on Trump Administration's response to China and the Coronavirus:

"I think that my classmate cheated on the test. Therefore I decided not to study for my test. I failed. It's my classmate's fault that I failed."

For comparison, the European Union is Sufficient. Canada is Partially Sufficient. Change is real and possible. We need to commit and maintain that commitment.

[Christian A. Wakeman @CAWakeman]

VP Pence's statement on the US being a worldwide leader in C02 reduction despite withdrawing from the Paris Climate Accord is false.

The US was graded Insufficient; we share this honor with North Korea.

Senator Harris wasn't refusing to take or promote a vaccine. She explicitly stated should would be the first in line to take one if it was approved by the appropriate regulatory and scientific bodies.

Trump and his administration are neither of those.
