US Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who has not asked a question in court for nearly seven years, has spoken to a lawyer presenting a case. How did he find the courage? He truly is an American hero.
The best part is that he breaks his silence for, "Well, he did not..." Man, that's a wasted opportunity. When Pylades finally spoke he said, So Orestes kills his mom. C'mon Clarence, you were the Pylades of the Supreme Court. I was expecting, "Burn her!" or, "To the death!" or at least, "Guilty!"
The article talks about him having issues around being teased for his Georgia dialect. I'm sure the focus this "joke" gets won't help him speak up more. And a few years ago, he gave us this gem: Guy can't buy a break! Though he can get his wife one....
I won't lie, the fact he loves loading the dishwasher because it is some sort of ~magic~ to him is sort of adorable.
Maybe he's about to become the Pylades of Euripides' Orestes, in which case we will never hear the end of him.
