Forty years ago this week, Greg Abbott had his spine crushed by a falling tree while on a jog in Houston. Abbott sued the tree owner, winning millions. Decades later, as governor, Abbott made sure Texans would never be able to do the same, thanks to tort reform. www.chron.com/politics/art...

This is Sylvia Gonzalez. At age 72, she won an upset victory for city council after campaigning to oust the city manager. The mayor didn't like that. So he had her arrested & jailed. The Supreme Court is about to hear her case, which has largely gone unnoticed. A thread.

Senate Dems should take one of their assorted gun control bills off the shelf, rename it something like "Trump Assassination Prevention Act," and force Rs to do a talking filibuster to block it

I miss the Civic hatchback. I could get a lot of stuff in one of those. And if it broke down, one person could push it.

FUCKING FINALLY

It's not every day that senators ask the attorney general to appoint a special counsel to criminally investigate a sitting Supreme Court justice. What's more, the case against Clarence Thomas is quite credible. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Greenland sharks are the longest-living vertebrates known, with some likely reaching 500 years old. They don't even reach sexual maturity until age 150. I'll save the secret of their longevity for another time, though. I want to talk about how we KNOW they're a half-millennium old.

I was angry and wrote about it.

Canadians in a state of mourning over what turned out to be an illusion. But then, character isn’t equated with art.
