Think Smaller. Think More Legs. - Lawyers, Guns & Money
Lotta folk have sent me this, and I want to make one thing absolutely clear: I have never been under any illusions that the meat themed substance that constitutes the McRib has anything to do with pork rib. But the lawsuit alleged that fans of the sandwich assume they’re biting into pork rib meat, but […]

Grading RFK Jr. on the Harvard College curve - Lawyers, Guns & Money
Andrew Gelman highlights the very many absurdities in this Emily Oster NYT op-ed, praising RFK Jr. for not advocating that Americans sprinkle plutonium on their cornflakes: If you actually read the linked op-ed (I don’t recommend you do), you’ll see that it categorizes two of the items on the new dietary guidelines as “good,” one […]

This is the grave of Carl Hatch.

Not sure what led a Kansas kid to go to […]

America's worst Democratic governor proposes shooting another massive brick - Lawyers, Guns & Money
Can someone tell me what the fuck is wrong with this guy? Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) said he’s considering clemency for Tina Peters, the former election official serving a nine-year state prison sentence for her role in a 2021 voting system breach. Polis’ openness to clemency for Peters comes after months of escalating retaliation from President Donald Trump […]
