JaymesRS@literature.cafeto politics @lemmy.world•Resurfaced clip shows Epstein pleading the Fifth when asked if he was with Trump around underage girlsEnglish81·2 months agoThis is beginning to feel like the Swedish penis pump scene in Austin Powers
JaymesRS@literature.cafeto News@lemmy.world•Trump administration supports people who rape children.English11·2 months agoThis ruling affects far more than just Catholics though. And proving that someone else protected the victimizer by interfering with the criminal justice system or intimidated the victim is still separately illegal by making one an accessory and not impacted by this ruling.
JaymesRS@literature.cafeto News@lemmy.world•Trump administration supports people who rape children.English1·2 months agoThat is not in conflict with this ruling. Prove it in court, go straight to PMitA Prison (unless you’re wealthy), same as always.
JaymesRS@literature.cafeto News@lemmy.world•Trump administration supports people who rape children.English2·2 months agoWhile the individual who did the heinous act may feel religious absolution, that doesn’t immunize them from the legal repercussions of the crime though, so that absolution is legally meaningless, so there is no offset of balance in a legal standpoint.
It also doesn’t allow the clergy member to intimidate or otherwise attack the victim or destroy evidence in the service of a coverup. It just says that one specific kind of communication can’t be compelled as evidence.
JaymesRS@literature.cafeto News@lemmy.world•Trump administration supports people who rape children.English132·2 months agoI suspect this is spinning this case for the meme.
Even as an atheist I’m torn on this. The clergy privilege is a long standing one like attorney-client privilege. And acknowledging that certain specific groups cannot be forced to divulge the contents of private conversations, is a slippery slope to any sort of ends justifying the means actions.

JaymesRS@literature.cafetoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•ICEblock, which allows users to alert others to the location of ICE officers, is now the top social networking app in the USEnglish1·2 months agoApple has a method that achieves this without a push token though. The server can update to notify the all copies of the app of locations of significance. Then when you leave or arrive in a location of significance (with the device doing the determination of if you are or are not in that location) the device itself generates the notification.
You can pry my em dashes — which I use regularly in writing because I love them — from my cold dead hands (To be fair, I really like parenthetical statements too, could be an ADHD thing).
JaymesRS@literature.cafeto politics @lemmy.world•Trump pleads ignorance after using antisemitic slurEnglish13·2 months agoFor those unaware of the origin, It’s a name of a Jewish moneylender character in The Merchant of Venice by Shakespeare.

JaymesRS@literature.cafeto News@lemmy.world•Meet ICEblock: The app that lets residents know when immigration agents are in their communityEnglish3·2 months agoFrom what I’ve been reading on this lately (since this started) on iOS a method exists for a service to send out a list of locations, or references list that exists on device (this can work with date/time triggers as well) that would trigger a notification and the local device itself handles notification of the user so the developer has no idea who has been notified for all they know they just shouted locations out into the void and the on-device location services handles the rest.
