The father, who kept a loaded gun unsecured in a house with children, seems like the criminal here, not a boy too young to understand what he was doing.
Your mask feels uncomfortable? Get over it. As a surgeon, I know how vital they are.

Trump and his cronies commit their treasonous crimes in plain sight, and that helps them get away with it.
David Gerrold’s 1983 novel “A Matter for Men” features the Earth facing a biological menace which many people believe is a hoax, and the US in decline but still powerful and threatening.
Oh, that old-time science fiction! So unrealistic!
Hello, again, Lake Murray. 📷
This may sound like Trump’s wackiest conspiracy theory. But it’s actually true. Republicans have been peddling insane conspiracy theories for decades, and now it is coming back to destroy them, as rank-and-file Republicans are refusing to vote using mail in ballots or to take precautions to protect themselves against coronavirus.
Scientists thought they found evidence of a new planet at the edge of the solar system. Now they think it might be a black hole.

For me, texting is a full-duplex conversation. I think possibly most people think of texting as half-duplex, like speech, and consider my approach rude.
“Ghislaine, Is That You?”: Inside Ghislaine Maxwell’s Life on the Lam
Friday, July 10, 2020
I did not know this: Ghislaine Maxwell is the daughter of the late media mogul Robert Maxwell, briefly famous as a rival to Rupert Murdoch. Robert Maxwell’s body was found floating near his yacht in 1991. Maybe his death was an accident. Maybe it was suicide. Maybe he was murdered to cover up … something. The yacht was named the Lady Ghislaine, for his daughter. The elder Maxwell and Richard Epstein had a lot in common.

In the 70s, overalls and high heels were considered perfectly acceptable ladies' wear for a night on the town. The 70s were a very strange decade.
Gilda’s rocking it. She looks fantastic.

I like writing things by hand … in theory.
I like the idea of being the guy who carries around a notebook, like Indiana Jones’s father, and writes down all my brilliant thoughts. In my mind, it’s a simple but beautiful notebook, and I write in it using a fountain pen.
In reality, I type everything on my MacBook and if I’m not at my MacBook I use my phone. On the phone, I’m using voice transcription more and more.
