Baxter the Big Orange Cat and me

Pitch perfect response from Georgetown Law reminding Ed Martin that it’s wildly inappropriate on both religious liberty and free speech grounds for him to attempt to use the power of his (interim) office to dictate what curriculum is “unacceptable” at the university.

Sadly… the senator is spot on.

I’m on this panel and I’ve started reading Alyx’s book- it’s fantastic. I hope to see you at the panel!!! Also: y’all should read the book!!

I got an R&R right before class today! So very excited for this project with three great coauthors!!!

1: Lawyer 2: Political science 3: Political science & history double major 4: Political scientist

This.

@crystalchauvin.bsky.social encourages me to not work sometimes.in JAX for thanksgiving

Perks of living in the northeast: I just booked my mom a flight to New York (where she has never been). I’ll meet her there for a day in NY before taking the train back to CT and then driving to Ohio for the holidays a day or so later. I’m really looking forward to it.

Sunday grading with Billie

I am so excited to share I'll be joining Trinity College in Hartford CT in Fall 24 in public policy and law. I'm so excited for this new chapter.

Woke up to an R&R this morning!!!

Out on FirstView & OpenAccess 📣 @shanegleasonphd.bsky.social in 'I Can’t See You; Can You Hear Me?' asks how the move to teleconference arguments at the Supreme Court during COVID-19 changed justices' assessments of attorneys' gender performances. PoliSky GenderSky www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Started today by seeing my new article at Politics and Gender as Online first! Briefly, the shift to teleconference arguments changes the way gender norms shape attorney success and makes it harder for female attorneys to navigate the double bind. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

I'm out trapping cats. Tomorrow I lecture oral arguments. It's a good day

Cat rescue run tonight. Meet Elrond. Trapped in a parking lot at the dorms. I am so grateful to the Cat Club for triangulating location and managing foot traffic while I trapped this sweet kitty.

We can't hire graders until they're sure enrollment will be high enough... then the usual slow paperwork..... I am about 100 papers deep in grading... thankfully the end is in sight.

Hey @profmusgrave.bsky.social I totally forgot to ask you to add me to PoliSky the other day. Can I get added?

Today I met with the local community college... they're launching a cat program like the one at our university. I'm so glad our model is helping cats in other places too. This is Baxter. He is not so patiently waiting for his canned Friskees.

So glad to see my law & courts friends here. I've missed y'all!

Thrilled to get a blue sky invite. Thanks @srburgess.bsky.social !
