The families suing the IVF clinics signed contracts that agreed to the eventual destruction of the embryos, so how can it be a wrongful death when the embryos were then destroyed? slate.com/news-and-politics/… via @slate

Someone please hire this man! We all rely on his legal reporting!
Nothing's going to keep me from sticking to this beat, at this moment in our history—and our team at @TheMessenger covered it as aggressively and fairly as any in the business, bar none.
My coverage will be uninterrupted, just seeking a new home. xitter.cf/dsamuelsohn/status/175…

I'm interrupting my 2-month Twitter hiatus b/c I've just found a highly relevant speech from the Ratification debates (1788):
Against Presidential Immunity & Unitary Executive theory (interpreting the Opinions Clause).
Future SCOTUS Justice Iredell, NC Convention, 7/28/1788:

Sad to hear that my great idea for marketing of Shingles vaccinations fell through.
"All the Shingle ladies" would have been a great success.
Prediction: Nikki Haley is the next President. (I don’t like it. She’s way too far right for me. But she is incomparably better than Trump, and, though I like Biden, the voters don’t want someone of his age in office. And he’s effectively cleared the Democratic field.)

Life luxuries without kids:
1. Traveling to exotic places
2. Dining at nice restaurants
3. Frequent hangouts with friends
4. Free time for personal hobbies
5. Clean house and peace of mind
Life luxuries with kids:
1. Actual silence
2. A full night's sleep
3. Going to the bathroom in peace
4. Getting out of the house on time
5. Watching them grow up, learn new things, and experience the world
I wouldn't trade #5 for anything in the first list.

The fact that Ohio legalized marijuana before Pennsylvania is a sin.

Chevron and Exxon each have a huge merger pending. These deals will likely harm competition, increasing prices and reducing output, while also harming small operators & suppressing wages. The FTC must carefully scrutinize the potential impact of these mergers before moving forward.
Early reports suggest it was Cindy Wilson. apple.news/AY-GjNw2HToSPyVYY…

According to the Gun Violence Archive, we are already past 35,000 US deaths this year from gun violence.
Imagine the wars we'd start if some outside group killed 35,000 Americans with guns. But when we're killing ourselves, we shrug and offer thoughts and prayers.

Djokovic feeling the need to mock Shelton’s celebration after he beat Tiafoe is why many of us will be glad when he retires. Will never have the admiration or respect that Nadal and Federer have. That just made him look petty. #USOpen
