new metaphor just dropped

Turns out the states are “laboratories of misogyny”

I grew out of brewing beer for a microbrewery as a career path, and I gave up on homesteading and so did society. Now I need to have a serious profession.

TFW you send the outrageously unfair first draft of the contract to the other side and they just send back a signature page.

The softest snowflakes in the world.

Elon Musk became a trillionaire this week and also made over $100 billion in the last 24 hours on the IPO of a house of cards. Nothing fucking matters. Life is fake. Do something that makes you happy, like tarring and feathering your local billionaire.

Regret is realizing you could have made more money as a bartender in a ski town than as an attorney in Michigan.

"Under no circumstances may we touch the endowment. We would sooner take Henry Kissinger’s name off our Center for the Study of Human Rights than take another penny out of the endowment."

Just found out about A.I. successionists - humans who want to bring about the supremacy of A.I. - and I just want to walk off into the sea and swim forever.

I didn’t realize how far left I was on foreign policy until listening to Matt Duss on Ezra Klein’s podcast. This guy is advising AOC and used to advise Sanders. But he sounds so centrist on so many issues. He’s correct on Gaza but basically “we need politically viable ideas” on everything else.

Pleased to post my draft article, “Discovering the Historical Anglo-American Constitution.” I study the history of birthright citizenship from the 1100s to the 1700s. The English common-law rule of natural-born subjects was always tied to territory and jurisdiction. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

This onion is more valuable than an NFT.

A fade-out while the band plays is an absolute failure of imagination on how to end a song. You started playing you can end it figgeritout

Me paging through at 12 looking for the “Song of Songs”

If you’ve never received one of these from OC or OP, are you even practicing law?

Jimmy Saville was like Epstein but so much worse. He was completely entrenched in the media and politics in a very upfront way, and abused thousands of people as young as 5 and as old as 45 including spinal injury patients he met soliciting donations for the BBC. A true psychopath.

This is an incredible tweet.

Back from the bad place for awhile.

Wow, the White House is so shaken by the turn in the public mood that they thought Chuck Schumer might actually rise up and "seize this moment" to get meaningful concessions. That's how panicked they are. They thought Chuck Schumer would do something.

ICE THUGS & NAZI GESTAPO ARE THE SAME. THEY ARE MURDERERS

J6er Jake Lang got punched yesterday in Dearborn, Michigan during his anti-Muslim march.

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes. Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

yo mamma’s kerning so bad, all her hyperlinks say “dick here”

i’ve said this before and i remain convinced it’s true, the 2028 platform that would deliver obama 08 results is “i am gonna bring the hammer down on the corrupt self-dealing politicians and their rich friends and there are no sacred cows id give a pass”

Can't wait for government reliance on the Exxon Climate Report, the Genocide Data Report sponsored by Raytheon, the Corporate Ethics Quarterly Report from Boeing, and the Civil Liberties Update from Palantir.

I am once again begging folks to understand the law as a fundamentally human endeavor.

Trump is a pedofilé, which is a thickening powder (filé) derived from feet. He's also a kiddie diddler.

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

One of the OBBBA provisions, S. 71111, stops a reform of nursing homes. That reform would require an RN on site 24/7, and that residents in the home get a minimum of 3.48 hours of direct interactive care per day. That's it. Eliminated by OBBBA Not about waste, fraud, and abuse, just $ for operators.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

I understand that these are disgusting fucking psychos but just to be clear: their plan is to submit the exact same bill in Dec that Republicans immediately blocked while Dems had enormous leverage, but now doing it without ANY leverage at all after giving them everything they wanted. Right?

Just imagining the media on Earth 2 on a day when President Harris's aides are fighting to withhold food stamps and raise healthcare prices for tens of millions of Americans while she hosts a former affiliate of al-Qaeda and ISIS in the Oval Office

Trump lies an average of 21 times per day. Provably. Stupidly. When it matters bigly and when it doesn't even matter. You believed these lies, then gave away the method of accountability. Useless Quisling

who?

Dems once again snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Speechless

time for the exododus now i guess

Everything is shitty, the great enshittification is complete, and no way to reverse it except deeply remaking society without billionaires.

Every time someone makes me read something Peter Thiel said it’s like “Scrooge McDuck is Jesus Christ and Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel and Daisy is Mary Magdalene and that’s why women voting has lowered American sperm count.”

Almost forgot about this classic. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uS1y...

If you'd like to delight in a side-by-side comparison, here's Bari Weiss' reported note to CBS staffers (left) and the one I cooked up on ChatGPT with a quickly dashed-off prompt (right). Looking forward to hearing from you in the days and weeks ahead!

Folks we are watching the adjudication of some of the most important constitutional issues of federalism, executive discretion, and judicial review since the 19th c www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

When your mind is full of worms, killing that parasite-ridden oatmeal is necessary. Then you can build it back up.
