#DavidSouter, former #SupremeCourt justice has died

#RIP

He foresaw our fall in 2012:

I know, I know. We're all supposed to be pleased that the pope is an OK guy. Well, I'm just not a fan of guys in funny hats and robes still telling people what to do. I remain irreverent.

This gem from Dave Allan comes to mind.

So on brand for the shitshow of 2025: there is (for real) a SOVIET spacecraft, launched in 1972, meant for Venus but it went Lost in Space for 53 years and has just now found its way home and will crash into Earth. Tonight.

It’s a badass MFer meant to land on Venus so…hope it doesn’t hit anyone.

English 'wood', Dutch 'woud', and German 'Wald' can all mean "forest".

However, despite their similar forms, 'wood' is not in any way etymologically related to 'woud' or 'Wald'.

'Woud' and 'Wald', which do have a common ancestor, are related to English 'wold' instead.

In an extraordinary moment of clarity realized, I’m goddamn lucky to have people in my life who I can talk to about human psychology and philosophy and not being called super sensitive or ‘you think too much’ or “what’s the point of anything really”. Damn! Is this what enlightenment feels like??

Yeah, I’m talking about my SO but also some of you. So thank you! For being a part of my life and craziness! I truly appreciate your existence 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🖤🩶🤍🤎
