From what I see, the legal system gives wildly varying results. And the difference between civil proceedings and criminal proceedings changes things as well. I have never been on a jury, but I have been through the court process after I was attacked in 2022. The guy was found guilty and sent to prison, but I definitely didn't get a million dollars. Of course he had basically no property or money that could be taken, so even if there had been a ruling of that sort it would have been like asking for blood from a turnip. Maybe Summer Bushnell has a lot of money? Who knows. I understand that comparing being hurt by lies and being physically hurt and left with some permanent damage is like comparing apples and oranges, and that comparing results from one location to another has similar issues. Still, it seems strange that one thing is worth a million dollars and the other is not. -

I had an inspiring weekend. Our vet detected a large splenic mass in our beautiful husky Saturday morning requiring immediate emergency surgery. We transferred her to the hospital our excellent vet recommended where she had a successful, uncomplicated surgery to remove the spleen and mass, and stayed over one night without any post-op complications. We were able to bring her home last night and she's so happy and content. So now I'm focused on nursing her through her recovery. Throughout this episode, after an initial brief feeling of panic, I found my mind calm, focused, and optimistic throughout. I spent time meditating and being with my girl in spirit while she was still in the hospital. She is so brave and strong and good. I thank God for the mental stability I've developed through grace which was tested this weekend, for the superb healthcare providers we are blessed with, for the means to be able to afford healthcare, and for the life of this amazing girl who is the embodiment of sweetness, determination, and endurance. All so very inspiring. We await the pathology report, but I have not been dwelling on that. Just so blessed to be together with this girl. -

So, it's treating this specific "condition" that is forbidden. Sometimes it's hard to believe how much they hate us. -

"Sunak and the Conservatives have used the row over gender and trans rights as a key plank of their election strategy against Labour and Keir Starmer." Just like our GOP "The change would allow political parties to restrict trans women with a GRC from benefiting from “women-only” shortlists and other measures aimed at increasing female participation." Guess that GRC won't mean much. -

I had a difficult weekend. I was upset to hear that the NHS had outlawed puberty blockers and spent much of Saturday in tears. I find the thought of trans kids suffering sooo triggering. -

from here (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2024/727/made) it states that it doesn't apply if: "...(5) Condition D is that the purpose for which the private prescription was issued is a purpose other than treatment for the purpose of puberty suppression in respect of gender dysphoria, gender incongruence or a combination of both." So the ban only applies to specifically for treatment of gender dysphoria/incongruence. -

My weekend was OK, Took the wagon to the car show on Saturday. It was quite a few cars. After I just mellowed at home. Not much yesterday. Was feeling a little cruddy. After the wife got home, we took a drive to Centennial for ice cream. Then took the long way home. Went up and over the Snowy range and back around to the interstate and home. all the while the left side of my face was building pressure, sinus infection. But got home it must have went its course because it subsided. Decided to put in for the store manage position at our local Sportsmans Warehouse. It was late yesterday evening so nothing yet. Hugs, Kymmie -

Are they also banning puberty blockers given to cis kids who start puberty too early? If not, that's not even targeting a medication, that's targeting a use of a medication. It would be like saying if you had a medication perfectly capable of treating both pneumonia and bronchitis, but you're only allowed to use it on one patient or the other. The stupidity is real -

Having sat on several juries one realizes how little folks beyond the courtroom know about the decisions made. The juries conversation about the evidence as presented by the sides involved can be exhausting. I would hesitate to question a decision especially, in this situation, when the 12 jurors are from a conservative area. That being said some in the political world are attacking not only the basis of our democracy but now find it advantageous to attack the legal system. No system is perfect but in my opinion ours works fairly well. Hugs, Charlize -

Good morning We drove about2 ½ hours to go to a different church’s service. It was very different, but very much the same. I went there to meet the minister that will be standing with our minister. As soon as she saw me she treated me by names and gave me a big hug. A lot more music and fire and brimstone, but still the same church traditions we had since I was a child. It is a larger congregation than ours. But still very homey and friendly.. we were welcomed by all. Busy week! My son and DIL are coming tomorrow. I haven’t seen them in quite a while. but now, I have to go to work. Willow -
