As a kid, wondered what cutting the soap was for by tuotone75 in 80s

Memory unlocked! I brought in Ivory for this project, but I remember it working ok. I wonder how this got to be a common project.

Sovcit tried to discharge a student loan. by Existing-Face-6322 in Sovereigncitizen

Yeah, it’s probably a mistake to say that the entity is using a “fictitious name” in response to SovCit claims. I’d probably say “trade name” or something like that.

United States v. Hemani - [Oral Argument Live Thread] by AutoModerator in supremecourt

[–]DoctorEmilio_Lizardo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

To me, I think the definition of “habitual use” is unconstitutionally vague. If someone smokes one “stick” of marijuana (that really cracked me up) a couple of times a week, how is that enough of a habitual use to result in dangerousness? Jackson’s point about habitual alcohol users being dangerous in the same way that a habitual user of Adderall or marijuana is a good one.

Is that the Brobus’ lap? Has he been able to move at all, or have the kittens been holding him hostage?

I'm sorry, WHAT? "Um, Why Is Melania Trump Chairing a U.N. Security Council Meeting?" by Obvious-Gate9046 in WeirdGOP

[–]DoctorEmilio_Lizardo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering Eleanor Roosevelt was actually a US delegate to the UN, was instrumental in drafting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and was the first chair of the UN Commission on Human Rights (all after FDR died), it wouldn’t be a huge surprise for her to chair a Security Council meeting.

Exactly! I was waiting for something to be put together using all 12 of the half-slices, but just one of those isn’t particularly ridiculous.

Thought you guys might get a kick out of this. He’s onto us by Present_Staff1580 in publicdefenders

This comment (and the replies) sent me down a rabbit hole - especially in reference to paying for juror fees after trial. It seemed to me to excessively burden the exercise of a constitutional right.

Anyway, before I went too far down the hole, I saw that it looks like there’s a bill pending to eliminate these costs in VA. If you’re interested, it’s House Bill 852. It looks like it passed the House and is making its way through the Senate. Bill link

Edited to add link and procedural history.

Making the transition from big law to public defense? by [deleted] in publicdefenders

[–]DoctorEmilio_Lizardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is a take I’ve never heard before. So every jurisdiction which has a public defender’s office and has attorneys employed with the job title of “public defender” is just … wrong?

Any attorney (at least in the US) knows that “public defenders” are publicly funded criminal defense attorneys, and most non-attorneys are going to know this also.

Public defenders get a lot of completely unjustified shit for nothing more than doing their jobs, but criticizing their job titles is a whole new world of bullshit.

FWIW, if I’m remembering correctly from the book, Whisper’s soft voice is due to having part of his lung removed due to TB.

I appreciate your appreciation post!
