Nice to see The Onion providing some laughs, restitution to Sandy Hook families and stripping Alex Jones of his website.

I don't know why, but I have recounted the story of Project Mohole multiple times in the past week. For that reason, here's one of my favourite things I've ever written: www.bugeyedandshameless.com/p/etceterolo...

This is my lane. I went through the 194 Trump v Barbara opinion from yesterday section by section, noting what they got right about US migration and citizenship history, and what the dissents get wrong. Please share if you think it is helpful to others.

The world is bleak, but the dogs are currently very good (feel like this one is @darthbluesky.bsky.social worthy)

Size and scope of what we’re up against in America 🇺🇸

AI data centers are buying up memory chips, forcing up the price of virtually all our consumer electronics. It was great to have @papapishu.bsky.social back on the show to understand why this is happening, how’s benefiting, and what people are doing in response.

Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands. Amber grew up in Canada, but with Ukrainian and Indigenous First Nation roots her identity means navigating prejudice, often feeling like she didn't belong and carrying the weight of two troubled histories.

Thanks! (If you can't trust Bread Pudding, who can you trust?) www.lawdork.com

the fireworks thing does sound like a disaster in the making but i would not be surprised if they are lying about how many fireworks they are going to set off it sounds like a trump number to me lol

this explains so much tbh

when someone orders 'and fries for the table' and your own order also includes fries

Excellent summation teasing out the disparate threads and explaining their importance

INNOCENT

With that, I’m done with another SCOTUS term. I’ll have much more to say, to be sure, but with my last decision story out and last planned end-of-term appearance done, it’s my first moment to breathe in a bit. Thanks, all, for playing a part—even just by being here—in helping to make this my life.

Alright. It’s bed time. … Night, all, and let us try to be good to one another — and ourselves.

“mRNA vaccines had 87 per cent effectiveness against documented infection with the virus that causes COVID-19 and 94 per cent against mortality two to six weeks after vaccination.” How many people were harmed by anti-vaxxer propaganda?

This is such sad news.

Forever grateful to Michele Goodwin for getting Erwin Chemerinsky, @sifill.bsky.social, @moiradonegan.bsky.social, @jamellebouie.net, @mjsdc.bsky.social, & I together to talk through the SCOTUS term each year. It's so important to be able to process it all with such an incredible group of people.

It’s been a lot, and that lot will continue. But, we have one another, and for that — for community — I am grateful. … Night, all, and let us try to be good to one another — and ourselves.

weird how republican lawmakers never seem to read the news

One of my best & oldest friends is also 1 of my favorite writers. Here's the NYT on Colin Asher's latest, 'The Midnight Special': "Asher’s book is a Midnight Special of its own. It’s a fog-piercing down-bound train of a book, better than it had to be... Asher is a calm & sophisticated storyteller...

The U.S. Justice Department and 17 states have reached settlement agreements with three major egg producers over allegations of that the companies illegally colluded in a multiyear scheme to raises prices.

Meanwhile, yet another Trump attempt to make sure that only Real Americans vote collapses after failing to live to its advance billing.

This is terrifying for all of us who live on the Gulf of Mexico at the very beginning of hurricane season

i thought carl was joking about the celebration coins

Even though injection wells are banned within a half-mile of public water wells in Oklahoma, we found 114 of them across the state, within public water districts more than 300k people rely on.

wait is this real @bencollins.bsky.social is this an onion prank

It is, as expected, a two-box day at SCOTUS. All of the remaining decisions are expected at 10a. Birthright citizenship, trans sports bans, and coordinated party expenditure limits cases remain.

OK. Off to SCOTUS, for the final opinions at 10. Birthright citizenship, trans sports bans, and coordinated party expenditure limits cases remain. I’ll be posting live here, then writing at Law Dork. Subscribe and support my work: www.lawdork.com

The comedy legend Mel Brooks turns 100 today. @adriennelaf.bsky.social on how he’s given the rest of us a blueprint for living well:

Humphrey's Executor is dead and the president can fire anyone in the executive branch at will but NOT Federal Reserve governors is really a parody of the difference between the money power and everything else in America

Yet another chapter in "prop bets, but for sociopaths": Polymarket makes money off people wagering on wildfires. Since my mother-in-law lives in Sonoma County, I find this more offensive than the average Polymarket bet.
