‘It’s Not Fair’: Florida Vocal Coach Turned Capitol Rioter Gets 6 Years
《“My whole dream of my life has been taken because people have different politics than mine,” Southard-Rumsey said, the outlet reported.
Sitting before U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta, she added, per CBS: “I have grievances since they don’t listen to us at the polling place. They don’t listen to us little people in the regular world.”
Southard-Rumsey reportedly urged Mehta to think about “what I now have to give up” and concluded by saying, “It’s not fair.”
….
Prosecutors say she used a flagpole to push against law enforcement trying to defend the Capitol, causing one officer to hit his head on the base of a marble statue.
Southard-Rumsey was also captured on video yelling at Capitol Police, “Tell Pelosi we are coming for that bitch,” referring to the then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
“There’s a hundred thousand of us! What’s it going to be?” Southard-Rumsey was heard saying on the video.
Prosecutors noted her threatening social media posts in the wake of the 2020 election, which included “HANG the TRAITORS!” and a message to “go to their work and home, pull them out by their teeth and hang them for treason!”》
Different politics, eh?
A North Korean defector captivated U.S. media. Some question her story.
Oy. North Korean defector entertainment industry.

Plastic-eating Enzyme Could Eliminate Billions of Tons of Landfill Waste – UT News
Mmm, plastic-eating bacteria. THAT won’t cause any trouble.
“Researchers at the Cockrell School of Engineering and College of Natural Sciences used a machine learning model to generate novel mutations to a natural enzyme called PETase that allows bacteria to degrade PET plastics. The model predicts which mutations in these enzymes would accomplish the goal of quickly depolymerizing post-consumer waste plastic at low temperatures.”
My little Angular project
So… I’m working on a little hobby side project as part of my journey of discovery into Angular 16 and Material and a bunch of other stuff. (I taught myself Angular back in the version 2, 4 days, and am responsible for a dormant Angular 8 app at work.) I always though it’d be cool to have a blog acting as sort of a journal as I go, so others can learn along with me if they want (I’m trying to be a bit didactic about it).
It just occurred to me that my commits actually serve the purpose, albeit in rough, ragged form. I have an org-mode file in the repo that I’m maintaining sort of as a journal, so, between that, and the (hopefully well-commented) code changes I’m making, it should just fall out. You can stick the RSS URL into your favorite feed reader (I use https://newsblur.com) and get notified whenever I make a change (mostly on the weekends, probably).
Happy to entertain questions and comments, if anybody’s interested.
