On Sunday, I moved the pullets into their “playpen” in the henhouse, then cleaned up all their mess in the bathroom. Of course I then had to check on them a number of times to make sure they knew where their food and water were, and that their pen was secure from intrusion by the adult hens. I already “trafficked” the two remaining sapphire gems to the farm down the road last week, and none of the remaining ones are nearly as aggressive as they were; still, chickens are chickens so I still worry a bit. The books say they’re able to maintain their body temperature pretty well by the end of two weeks, but I always wait three and give them a good heat lamp; still, I tend to fret enough that I felt the need to check on them before I go to bed the first night. I needn’t have worried; when I went out there about 1 AM Sunday night/Monday morning, they were busily running around the pen rather than huddling together for warmth under the lamp, so it’s fine. And the predicted lows every other night this week are higher than last night, so even better. Still, it’s funny; after having them inside for three weeks, I’ve gotten so used to them that all day Sunday and yesterday I kept imagining that I heard them peeping. Oh, and I think it’s obvious now that the little one is of a different breed, apparently a bantam breed. Well, as long as she lays eggs I’m not concerned about it.
A [screw] at a [Washington] juvenile [jail raped] a 15-year-old [prisoner] inside a [pigmobile]…Antwon Jones…[h]as [been] charged [with]…rape and fir[ed]. Jones was tasked with transporting the girl on Jan. 26 [for vaguely-described reasons, and quite predictably coerced]…her during transport [into submitting to rape]. The girl said she [was afraid to refuse him]…So…he…stopped the vehicle in a parking lot…[near] the [cage stack]…and…got into the back seat with…her…[but] after the [rape], Jones realized he had [idiotic]ally locked himself in the back of the vehicle with the girl, s[o he was trapped]…until [he was caught, though he tried to excuse himself with a dumbass tale about]…lock[ing] himself [in] while adjusting her handcuffs…
The people who actually need “correction” are the ones who enable this horror:
FBI agents…raided a federal women’s prison in California so plagued by sexual abuse it was known among [prisoner]s and [screw]s as the “rape club”. The action coincided with the ouster of…Warden Art Dulgov — just a few months into his tenure — and three other top…[screws, due to their]…retaliation against a…[prisoner] who testified in January in a lawsuit…against the prison…The developments are just the latest twist in a years-long [parade of atrocities] surrounding the facility. Since an FBI investigation was launched…in 2021, eight FCI Dublin [screw]s have been charged with sexually abusing inmates. Five of them have pleaded guilty…and two have been convicted by juries…[the feds have now] appointed [a woman as] interim warden of Dublin…the fourth person to hold the office since [rapist warden Ray] Garcia was removed…[in a transparent attempt to convince the painfully-naive that everything will be better now]…the number of women who have come forward [as victims of rape, other] sexual abuse[,] and retaliation [at the prison]…has reached 63…
I doubt this will make much difference until cops’ power is severely curtailed:
A [typical and representative] Oklahoma [cop] convicted [on a federal civil rights charge resulting from the violent rape] of a woman during a traffic stop will become the first to face a heftier penalty under the 2022 reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act…Jeffrey Scott Smith Jr…is facing up to 40 years in prison after a jury found him guilty this week of [violently raping the woman and deactivating his body camera and dashboard camera to cover it up]…
In addition to being a “pastor”, he’s also a wannabe cop. Quelle surprise:
South Florida pastor…Monte Lavelle Chitty…was arrested…[for] rap[ing a 15-year-old girl who]…told deputies that “Chitty gave her alcohol that she thinks might have been ‘spiked’ with something else”…When she woke up, she found Chitty [rap]ing her…Chitty “was a registered volunteer with the Sheriff’s Office” [in addition to being] a pastor…
Stories about child-molesting cops are often larded with obfuscatory language:
[A typical and representative] South Carolina [cop named]…David Lonny Geronimo Templet…[has been] charged with…[multiple] sex…[crimes against multiple children]…In July 2019…[he molested] an 11-year-old…
[and] between July 2019 and September 2020, [he repeat]edly masturbated in the presence of two [other] children…
They’re also often really vague about the victims’ ages:
A…Missouri…[cop named] Johnathon…Taylor…was arrested…[for] the [repeated] sexual assault of [two] minor girls…beginning in 2017 [and continuing until at least 2022]…
Give sexually-aggressive thugs power over teens; what could possibly go wrong?
An [Oklahoma cop assigned to spy on, harass, and intimidate students]…was arrested after [predictably raping a student]…James Matthew Waltman p[lied the girl with] alcohol to [facilitate the rape, and the article is heavily padded with clowns feigning surprise at this 100% predictable outcome]…
Even if they’re only part-time lurkers, that’s as much opportunity as they need:
[An Indiana cop named] Rico E. Butler[, who was assigned to spy on, harass, and intimidate students part-time,] was charged on March 2 with…child seduction…for sexual abuse of…a…17-year-old…[since] September…Butler…has been [rewarded with a] paid [vacation]…

Parents have the right to exercise their religious beliefs…but…not…in a manner that causes…harm to [their] child. – Indiana Court of Appeals
The Supreme Court declined to [intervene in the case of] an Indiana couple who believe [young adults are “]children[” who] should be [tortured for not conforming to] their sex at birth [and therefore] lost custody of their [16-year-old] transgender [daughter]…The state said the parents, who are self-described devout Christians, lost custody not because of their views but because…the[ir unceasing abuse]…of…the teen…[was causing a] severe eating disorder…Indiana also argued that the custody dispute is [moot] because the teen, who was 16 when removed from the home, is now an adult…Mary and Jeremy Cox re[peatedly portrayed themselves as champions of “]parental rights[” despite the fact]…that the State…remove[d]…the teen…[because] the parents…verbally and emotionally abus[ed her]…and [would not relent despite] individual and family therapy…[and court orders] not to discuss transgenderism with their [daughter] outside of the therapy sessions…The Indiana Court of Appeals sided with the state, and the Indiana Supreme Court declined to review the case…
The Washington Post has “discovered” something I’ve been writing about for over a decade:
Americans have been forced to reckon with sexual misconduct committed by teachers, clergy, coaches and others with access to and authority over children [and adolescents]. But there is [widespread denial] of…sex crimes perpetrated by members of another profession that many children are taught to revere and obey: law enforcement…At least 1,800 state and local police officers were charged with crimes involving child sexual abuse from 2005 through 2022…[and] were rarely related to the children [or adolescents] they…rap[ed], fondl[ed,] and exploit[ed]. They most frequently targeted girls…13 to 15 years old — and regularly met their victims through their jobs…In case after case, [rapist cops] intentionally earned the trust of parents and guardians, created opportunities to get kids alone and threatened repercussions for broken silence…and…when abuse is suspected, [rapist cops] are [either] allowed to remain on the job [or rewarded with paid vacations] while investigations of their behavior are left in the hands of their c[ronies]…
How long will America ignore the costs of its sick worship of state-sanctioned violence?
For decades, we’ve been [s]old [the lie that cops] just need training and resources to do their jobs correctly…cultural sensitivity training, implicit bias training, de-escalation training, and so on, cost billions every year…But [the evidence clearly demonstrates]…that no amount of training or resources will stop police from killing…or…ensure that police treat people with dignity and respect. Worse still, the “training” that cops already receive often glorifies violence, reinforces racist ideas, and is taught by [cops] with histories of misconduct…at least 46 states have paid a…company…which does business under the name “Street Cop”—to fill [cop]s’ heads with hateful rhetoric and bad legal advice…trainers urge…[their fellow pigs] to make unconstitutional traffic stops and indiscriminately shoot at those who defy their authority…[and feed] trainees a steady diet of racism and misogyny…[one] advised [pigs] to treat criminal suspects like “live tissue labs” to “practice on”…When Street Cop’s instructors weren’t too busy talking about their penis sizes or mimicking masturbation (yes, really), they were promoting a…checklist…riddled with legal inaccuracies about what is needed to justify a traffic stop or search…
Prohibition can never succeed, regardless of which substance is prohibited:
The Oklahoma House of Representatives [has] passed a bill Thursday that bans the…possession of non-prescribed abortion inducing medications…since all of the surgical abortion clinics in the state have [been] closed…there has been an increase in unattended at-home [chem]ically induced abortions…and [politicians are butthurt that]…someone can simply buy the pill, take it, and terminate their pregnancy for any reason [without having to beg The Almighty State for permission]…
The Puritan Recrudescence (#1391)
Indiana’s float in the “monkey see, monkey do” parade took a few months to get rolling:
Indiana…governor…Eric Holcomb…has signed into law the state’s version of the age verification bills being sponsored around the country by [pro-censorship] activists…SB 17…goes far beyond [other such laws by]…stipulat[ing] that any website [which fails to guess what some politician or wannabe censor will point at and barf]… “material harmful to minors”…can [be subjected to a nuisance lawsuit by either opportunistic citizens or opportunistic politicians]…
The Puritan Recrudescence (#1400)
The currently-fashionable “monkey see, monkey do” parade has escaped the US:
…a private member’s bill introduced by Senator Julie Miville-Dechêne…aims to…requir[e] people to use a third-party service to verify their age to access adult content online in Canada…Proponents of the bill [speciously argue] that…the…[internet is a bar]…but we’re not talking about controlling access to a physical space or object. It’s access to ideas, to data…and to intercept specific ideas, you need to control access to all ideas…
That’s just about everything worthwhile about this piece; the writer’s naive and somewhat-silly opinions about politicians’ motivations and why surveillance and infantilization of adults are wrong (synopsis: TITTIES!) are good indicators of why this keeps happening and why there isn’t a vehement public outcry against these internet-censorship schemes.
Sleeping with a cop is one of the most dangerous things a woman can do:
…Bellingham [Washington cop] Joshua Richard McKissick…was ordered Feb. 26 to surrender all firearms and other dangerous weapons and any concealed pistol licenses to the Whatcom County Sheriff’s Office. An emergency domestic violence protection order was also issued the same day…[on behalf of] McKissick]’s girlfriend] and her two children…because…McKissick subjected her to a “significant amount” of [physical, sexual, and] emotional abuse in 2022[, often while drunk]…

It’s bad enough when adult reporters try to get me to do their work for them, but it reaches a higher level of impudence when the person who thinks he can outwit me isn’t even as old as the last bottle of wine I drank. – “Not Last Night”
In real life, people don’t generally fall in love within two hours and live happily ever after; problems aren’t neatly tied up in time for the end credits; doctors and cops don’t have exciting, important cases every week; and the heroes & villains aren’t totally distinct and distinguishable by the color of their hats. – “Prolong”
Soi-disant “abolitionists” are perfectly willing to lie; to consign innocent people to the brutality of arrest, prison and even actual slavery; to break both laws and their own solemn oaths; and to sign the death warrants of women they profess to want to “save”. – “Believe Them”
Self-appointed “rescuers”…[a]re pathological liars crammed as full of shit as a backed-up sewer line, and their idea of “rescue” is rape followed by confinement in cages or sweatshops. – “Social Distancing”

In the 3rd millennium BCE, the Pleiades were very near the point at which the vernal equinox occurred, which is why the goddesses they represent appear here today. The apparent path of the sun crossed the equator moving northward at 3:06 UTC today, signaling the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and autumn in the Southern. Enjoy the milder weather to come, and Blessed Be!

Infantilization of young adults is all the rage these days. – E.N. Brown
Politicians are terrified of losing ways to destroy peaceful citizens’ lives:
Oregon [politicians have] overwhelmingly [signaled their disdain for the will of their constituents by voting for] recriminalization of low-level drug possession , reversing a landmark reform that voters endorsed when they passed Measure 110 in 2020. Gov. Tina Kotek has indicated that she is inclined to sign the bill, ratifying a regression driven by unrealistic expectations and unproven assertions…[boss politician] Kate Lieber…claims, “we are…mak[ing] sure Oregonians have access to the treatment and care that they need.” But Oregon is not merely making sure that people “have access” to treatment; it is foisting “help” on people who do not want it by threatening them with incarceration…
The 5th Circuit sucked Louisiana politicians’ dicks on this in 2018; will the 11th imitate them?
Florida [politicians have]…approved a bill banning 18- to 20-year-olds from being strippers or from working in any other capacity at an adult entertainment venue. Like a similar bill passed in Texas in 2021, the Florida bill [was justified by vomiting out the phrase “]human trafficking[“, with the usual]…potential to…make abuse and exploitation worse. It’s also part of a growing movement across the U.S. to push up the boundaries of childhood, [criminaliz]ing all sorts of things once legal for 18- to 20-year-olds…[if] Ron DeSantis…signs it, the law will take effect July 1. Young adult strippers…would not themselves be subject to penalty. Rather, the bill would make it a crime to…employ…someone under age 21…in these businesses…[even] if an establishment is tricked by a fake ID…It also says the employment must be done “knowingly,” so it’s unclear exactly how these two standards can coexist…
Burble burble BLUE STATE burble drool:
Hundreds of new books featuring characters of color and LGBTQ+ themes were found [in] the trash at a Staten Island elementary school…sparking an education department investigation…Some had sticky notes on them…A note on My Two Border Towns, about a boy’s life on the United States-Mexico border, read “Our country has no room and it’s not fair.” A note on The Derby Daredevils…read…“Discusses dad being transgender. Teenage girls having a crush on another girl”…a note on We Are Still Here! Native American Truths Everyone Should Know read “negative slant on white people”…A note on Julian Is A Mermaid…read “Boy questions gender”…Notes on pages of Black Panther: The Young Prince read “Witchcraft? Human skulls” and “Pact with Devil. Burned in fire”…[the person who discovered the books said] “this [censorship] feels like censorship…It feels like book banning”…
Is having a shiny new status symbol really worth being spied on and price-gouged?
LexisNexis is a…global data broker with a “Risk Solutions” division that caters to the auto insurance industry and has traditionally kept tabs on car accidents and tickets…[but] General Motors [and other automakers are now surreptitiously providing data to]…LexisNexis…to create a risk score…for insurers to use as [an excuse for raising people’s]…insurance [rates]…In recent years, insurance companies have offered incentives to people who [foolishly] install dongles in their cars or download smartphone apps that monitor their driving, including how much they drive, how fast they take corners, how hard they hit the brakes and whether they speed. But “drivers are historically reluctant to participate in these programs,” as Ford Motor put it…[so] car companies are collecting information directly from internet-connected vehicles for use by the insurance industry…[without] a driver’s awareness [or] consent…
I’m unsure of how this affects Florida’s more widespread censorship problem:
…Equality Florida and Family Equality, [along with individual plaintiffs, have] reached a…settlement agreement with the…Florida Department of Education, and school districts that resolves their facial challenge to Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” law… The agreement effectively nullifies the most dangerous and discriminatory impacts of…the law…The settlement restores the ability of students, teachers, and others in Florida schools to speak and write freely about sexual orientation and gender identity in class participation and schoolwork. It also…reinstates Gay-Straight Alliances…[and] requires the State Board of Education to…make clear that the settlement reflects the considered position of the State of Florida on the scope and meaning of this law…
Sleeping with a cop is one of the most dangerous things a woman can do:
[A typical and representative] South Carolina [screw named]…Joshua Bradford..[h]as [been] charged with [aggravated] domestic violence…and [other felonies for]…shooting…[his wife] while she was holding a child in a [car] seat…
Note the attempt to obscure that this psycho is a cop by referring to him as a “sheriff’s office employee”; we’ve seen this weasel-trick before.
The Puritan Recrudescence (#1421)
Texas residents, like those of several other states, now need VPNs to watch porn:
Aylo has blocked access to Pornhub in Texas…following the decision by the…5th Circuit upholding the state’s controversial age verification law [while a challenge filed by Aylo and others proceeds]. The company posted a message explaining its decision, which can be read by those attempting to reach the platform in Texas…Aylo is also calling on all adult sites to comply [in this way]…
Pornhub has repeatedly taken the principled stand of refusing to spy on its users for the State.

On Saturday I expanded the chicks’ nursery so they have more room to run around until I move them into the henhouse on Sunday; they always grow like weeds, so it isn’t surprising that they’re trying to fly up to the top of the wall and the food and water dispensers. What is surprising is the variation in size of these chicks; usually they’re pretty hard to tell apart unless one has some kind of distinguishing mark, but this time the largest is noticeably bigger than the second-largest, which is in turn noticeably bigger than the smallest. I’m not sure why that might be; it’s of course possible that one of them is male even though I bought pullets, because mistakes can happen. But that wouldn’t explain why there are three different sizes. The smallest one has a lot more white markings on her dorsal side, and the largest has almost no white at all; in conjunction with the size differential, I’m wondering if they might actually be related but different breeds which only look alike as chicks. Oh, well, we’ll know soon enough; it’s interesting to have things be at least somewhat different this time, as long as they’re all female!

Bladed garden tool: cop dysphemism for “hoe”
It was Matt Welch who introduced me to a German cover of “Paint it Black” just over 4 years ago; now he’s shared a French one. The links above it were provided by Jesse Walker, The Onion, Jacob Sullum, Jesse Walker again, Wendy Lyon, and IncarcerNation (x2), in that order.

Or if that doesn’t work for you, please consider showing your generosity with a one-time donation; you can Paypal to maggiemcneill@earthlink.net or else email me at the same address to make other arrangements. Thanks so much!
