I gather this happens only in hardware stores where they sell plywood.

Short and Sweet from UPenn’s @aaup.org chapter on the Trump/Rufo “Higher Ed Compact.” “When an invitation is accompanied by consequences for not accepting it, it is in fact a threat, not an invitation.” aaup-penn.org/statement-by...

To Donald Trump: Stop using military troops and ICE to invade and disrupt American cities. Stop calling your political opponents “enemies” of the US. Stop attacking the 1st Amendment. Our troops and our nation deserve better than you acting as a petty tyrant.

To all of our LDS brothers and sisters in faith, sending prayers in this time of great sorrow and unspeakable tragedy.

Fantastic project!

@andrewhickey.500songs.com Andrew's podcast keeps me sane in this insane world.

That, and also the Disney parks suck. (He ducks).

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Liz Cheney visiting @northwesternlaw.bsky.social to talk about threats to democracy and our republic.

BREAKING | DeSantis to make Florida first state to end all vaccine mandates for schools

Says that "this was just locker room stuff."

Now hating on sourdough.

Before Lee Corso road off into the sunset, he picked LSU, Fla St, and OSU. Baller. @anthonymkreis.bsky.social

Couldn't care less about Cracker Barrel's fortunes. Food sucks, and gives off consistent MAGA vibes. Fight me.

Obama warns ‘all Americans are at risk’ after Trump after threatens to clamp down on Chicago

These are the crime-ridden scenes I see on my evening stroll in Chicago. Send in the guard!

Teacher son in law in TX gets the memo today explaining exactly how to display the 10 commandments in his Jr high class. And we are living in the new abnormal.

As that famous conservative Grover Norquist once said, "I don’t want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where troops patrol the streets of every city, agents personally inspect the genitals of all student athletes, & the government owns a 10% stake in major companies"

Yes, the stakes here are large. Very large.

Tough sledding for Cubs. Today, 3 straight strikeouts with runners on 2nd & 3rd in late inning. But, on the bright side, the Brewers are coming to town soon! For 5 games. Sigh.

Busy deleting George Strait from my Spotify playlists. KISS wasn't on it so no big deal. Gloria Gaynor? Her career won't survive. @kennedycenter.bsky.social

Stock market says what.

The Erie Canal was finished eight years before Chicago was founded. What is he even talking about?

This man has zero idea what the fuck he's talking about. Eat shit and stay away from Chicago.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

Horrific. mRNA vaccines have saved millions of lives and could save millions more. “I don’t think I’ve seen a more dangerous decision in public health in my 50 years in the business,” said Mike Osterholm, a UMN expert on infectious diseases & pandemic preparations. www.huffpost.com/entry/rfk-va...

Go Cubs!

Ozzy RIP. @andrewhickey.500songs.com

Just say no.

….this is genuinely not the worst idea I’ve ever heard

I hope this is not true. Stephen Colbert is a national treasure.

We're all doomed.

Friends, I'd be skeptical about a statement circulated by a 20-follower Twitter account named "P. Enis"

To use the official ALI-relevant terminology here, @cjsprigman.bsky.social was a total baller throughout this long process.

Marc Andreessen is a garden-variety racist crank. He was in the right place/right time from 1993-1995, and has coasted upward ever since. The fact that he has been taken seriously for so many years is solely attributable to Silicon Valley thinking that “rich” is the same thing as “smart.”

Breakfast bagel at Wimbledon. Congrats, Iga.

I don’t care if he doesn’t back this up with further action, in a normal time, this is a major scandal, showing the president of the United States has nothing but contempt for the first amendment, basic rights, and his fellow citizens and will act accordingly in various ways.

Outflanking? That's how it works? Ugh, I'm just too old for all this.

Just didn't make the list, alas. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/jd-vanc...

Murkowski is terrible.

This is a subject I have been brooding about for some time. I am grateful to the Washington Monthly for posting this piece. washingtonmonthly.com/2025/06/27/i...

When British parliament threw out the regulations governing the machine-made cloth trade in 1809—during a time of great elite power and hostility to organizing—the Luddites rose up and orchestrated a guerrilla campaign of machine smashing that brought the nation to the brink. Just saying.

The world is a mess. Looking forward to @500songspodcast.bsky.social. One of the few things that makes sense these days.

I’ll say it again: It was a huge mistake for Congress to abolish itself.

Yes indeed. Moreover, it is our responsibility as law teachers to communicate this essential point to this group of future lawyers. @darapurvis.bsky.social @anthonymkreis.bsky.social

Nothing in the principle and policy of institutional neutrality stops the faculty, individually or collectively, from decrying this decision and criticizing this student. Have they? @evanbernick.bsky.social @jamalgreene.bsky.social

This guy is just posted up outside of Congress and I’m honestly not sure what his political views are but I agree
