Well, here we are, finally. On Friday 7/10/2020 I was sentenced to 2 yrs probation, 10K in fines, 61K forfeiture. My lawyers are happy, and I’m relieved it’s over. Life has been a little too exciting for my taste these last few years and I’m looking forward to hanging out and enjoying the plebeian. There will be more political rants, but not today. Today I’m going to the park.
A few have asked if I have a kickstarter or gofundme campaign they can donate to. What you can do instead is make a donation to if/when/how, part of my phenomenal legal team:
Lawyering for Reproductive Justice

What would you think if I sang out of tune?
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song
And I’ll try not to sing out of key
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
What do I do when my love is away?
Does it worry you to be alone?
How do I feel by the end of the day?
Are you sad because you’re on your own?
No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody?
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love
Would you believe in a love at first sight?
Yes, I’m certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light?
I can’t tell you, but I know it’s mine
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, get high with a little help from my friends
Oh, I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody?
I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
Oh, I get high with a little help from my friends
Yes, I get by with a little help from my friends
With a little help from my friends
— The Beatles, 1967
