    Her son said his stepdad was sexually abusive. A judge gave the stepdad custody anyway. Then his mom found the photographs.
    https://www.insider.com/parental-alienation-syndrome-father-alleged-child-abuse-win-custody-case-2023-5
    How the 'junk science' of parental alienation infiltrated American family courts and allowed accused child abusers to win custody of their kids. Parental alienation is a fairly recent idea, conceived in the 1980s by a psychiatrist, Dr. Richard Gardner, who argued that divorcing mothers, desperate to win custody suits, were brainwashing children against their fathers. In "severe" cases, Gardner wrote, children with "parental alienation syndrome" must be removed from their mothers, transferred to the care of their fathers, and reeducated through what he called "threat therapy." Alienation has never been accepted as a psychiatric disorder by the medical establishment. Yet today, mental-health practitioners across the United States assess and treat it, particularly those who specialize in custody cases. Many of them collaborate closely, attending the same conferences, following the same protocols, and citing the same papers. Some run reunification programs like Family Bridges; others offer family therapy or produce custody evaluations for family courts. Influenced by these experts, many judges have given the unproven concept the force of law.

    Are You Ready For The Worst Puff Piece Ever Written?
    https://www.wired.com/story/pete-buttigieg-interview-god-beer-electric-mustang/
    As Secretary Buttigieg and I talked in his underfurnished corner office one afternoon in early spring, I slowly became aware that his cabinet job requires only a modest portion of his cognitive powers. Other mental facilities, no kidding, are apportioned to the Iliad, Puritan historiography, and Knausgaard’s Spring—though not in the original Norwegian (slacker). Fortunately, he was willing to devote yet another apse in his cathedral mind to making his ideas about three mighty themes—neoliberalism, masculinity, and Christianity—intelligible to me.

    More than half of the world's large lakes are drying up, study finds
    https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/more-than-half-worlds-large-lakes-are-drying-up-study-finds-2023-05-18/
    More than half of the world's large lakes and reservoirs have shrunk since the early 1990s, chiefly because of climate change, intensifying concerns about water for agriculture, hydropower and human consumption, a study published on Thursday found. They found that unsustainable human use, changes in rainfall and run-off, sedimentation, and rising temperatures have driven lake levels down globally, with 53% of lakes showing a decline from 1992 to 2020. Neary 2 billion people, who live in a drying lake basin, are directly affected and many regions have faced shortages in recent years.

    I'm a former SF judge. Breed and Jenkins are failing on drugs.
    https://www.sfgate.com/politics-op-eds/article/former-judge-blasts-breed-jenkins-18104403.php
    The staggering 41% increase in fatal overdoses in San Francisco this year was as predictable and preventable as it was tragic. In the first three months of 2023 alone, a record 200 human beings died from overdoses, as city leaders responsible for solving the problem are talking tough yet gutting the programs proven to actually save lives and treat addiction. Mayor London Breed and her handpicked district attorney, Brooke Jenkins, have been busy launching another war on drugs, eliminating access to treatment and services, and complaining about a San Francisco crime narrative that they now own. The addiction, human suffering and fatal overdoses that accompany San Francisco’s open-air drug markets have tainted our great city for decades. Instead of doing the difficult work of addressing these challenges, our current government officials are playing politics and moving us backward with fatal consequences. During the two and a half years Chesa Boudin served as district attorney, the city deemphasized arrests and incarceration in favor of a safe consumption site and connecting those arrested with court-supervised treatment and services. Now, nearly a year into Jenkins’ tenure, San Francisco has its results: a record 200 fatal overdoses in the first quarter of 2023 (a 41% increase from last year, when Boudin was DA), drug-dealing trials in which Jenkins failed to obtain a single conviction, massive increases in police spending, and a dystopian “San Francisco crime is out of control” narrative that is as persistent as ever. What happened to Boudin's causing these problems? It was a lie — plain and simple.

    Is Bernie Sanders happy?
    https://wapo.st/41OqRBW
    Bernie Sanders sits in the conference room of his Capitol Hill office wearing an unfamiliar countenance: The senator is beaming. He slaps a sheet of printer paper onto the table in front of him. “I just jotted down some notes,” he says with a wolfish grin. “Let me tell you what we’re trying to do and you ask me any questions you want.” Sanders (I-Vt.) rarely exudes such high spirits in the presence of the press; to interview Sanders, under most circumstances, is to endure his impatient scowl. Something’s different this time. When he walked into the room a few minutes earlier, he had shot me a knowing wink. He seems ... chipper? Is Bernie Sanders being chipper right now? “We’re having a very interesting hearing — pay attention to it!” Sanders says from across the table. The CEOs of three major insulin manufacturers were scheduled to appear alongside the CEOs of three companies that manage prescription drug prices for health insurers. “All on one panel!” Sanders yelps with punchline-like emphasis.

    'We Do Not Need a School for Assassins': Hours of Public Comment Unanimously Against 'Cop City' - UNICORN RIOT
    https://unicornriot.ninja/2023/we-do-not-need-a-school-for-assassins-hours-of-public-comment-unanimously-against-cop-city/
    Atlanta, GA — Hundreds of Atlantans spoke out against the proposed authorization of $33.5 million taxpayer dollars for the Atlanta Police Foundation to fund the construction of ‘Cop City’ during the public comment section at city council on Monday. The council is expected to vote on the funding on June 5. The public comment lasted over seven hours and the nearly 300 community members who had the opportunity to speak were unanimous in their opposition to ‘Cop City’, which if built, would be an 85-acre urban warfare police training compound in the South River Forest in DeKalb County, Georgia. The Atlanta Public Safety Training Center (‘Cop City’) will cost at least $90 million total, with most of the funding flowing from corporations such as Coca-Cola, Chick-fil-A, Cox Enterprises, UPS, Home Depot, Waffle House, Wells Fargo and more. During the hours-long public comment, many of the same points were brought up by Atlanta residents about what the $33.5 million could go toward instead — affordable housing, repairing roads, improving the electrical grid, the healthcare system, education, family leave, after-school programs, building community centers, community outreach, etc.

    Shell chemical plant that burned near Houston had a record of nearly 2,000 violations
    https://news.oilandgaswatch.org/post/shell-chemical-plant-that-burned-near-houston-had-a-record-of-nearly-2-000-violations
    The Shell chemical plant east of Houston that caught fire on Friday had a record of 1,946 environmental violations over the past decade, according to state records. Of these violations, 95 at the Shell Deer Park Chemicals plant are still considered “active,” meaning the company has not yet resolved the problem, according to the records of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). These violations include the company’s failure to properly control gases venting from its equipment. Others had to do with paperwork problems, including “failure to provide documentation to evaluate compliance.”
