I heard the Murdaugh conviction got thrown out. Did my research prepared to be furious. SC Supreme Court did the right thing. What an embarrassment. What a travesty.

Talking about the gas tax when regular gas looks certain to go north of 5 bucks a gallon is like talking about Advil after your arm has been chopped off, sorry.

We need to really, really push candidates on wielding power aggressively, now. The map is BAD after 2028. Court packing and bipartisan districting are just non-optional, anymore.

Democratic states need to be preparing to eliminate more R seats in response to the elimination of black seats. Can probably even be a bit aggressive given this midterm environment. Have to go to the mat with the brinksmanship, unfortunately.

"It's all going pretty good, in fact" didn't work for Biden, and the GOP learned nothing from that.

There's gonna be an entire shelf of books about this at B&N in two years. We'll find out what happened then.

I remember when this shit was at best uncommon.

It's my 36th birthday. I still look like I don't drink legally. When do I get some more of this grey. Or facial hair. Its time.

"Having sources" is what actual malice was designed to fall short of 😂

Man, then he should go improve, but spare the country his manifold moral failings. Shit apology, too.

Gross.

This. Going off half-cocked and with insufficient proof is very, very dangerous. Nobody owes anybody the sacrifice of their livelihoods and assets just to try to get a story out faster.

The people who purported to "vet" these scammers are dumbasses. What you'd whip up in a lab if you wanted to invent a mark. If this is a tough pill to swallow, wisen up, its hars enough out there if you actually have common sense, you're playing life on one of its many hard modes.

Call out corruption. Say you're going to punish it. Then literally never shut up about. We can do that.

It's bad to pursue and groom your employees if you're their boss. Really disappointed we forget this as often as we seem to. It's not okay.

Having an experience makes you an expert in *your* experience. Training, education, and exposure to other experiences is the only thing that can make you an expert in *the* experience, not just yours. Assuming that something happening to you makes you an expert is dangerous, often toxic thinking.

Watched his video and yeah...same impact and the C&D.

Read Swalwell's attorney's C&D and, yeah, folks, that's considerable evidence he did that shit.

Watched an episode of thie Couples Therapy show and holy shit, people, if you hate eachother, break up.

Always nice to prepare really hard and then perform like you prepared. Proud of our squad this morning.

...sure feels weird to do anything *but* doomscroll rn, but I have no choice.

I genuinely don't know what use a movement or group could possibly have for a guy like this, but I'm gonna go ahead and recommend its in a silent role.

It is literally basic reality that its a bad idea to throw a punch if you have any real problem getting punched back. That doesnt mean its always right to hit you back! But if you have a problem with the very idea that your potato might launch a receipt, keep your potato in the pantry.

I admire a lot of legal commentators who still put a lot of effort in making legal commentary on this site. Because it's an absolute minefield.

Law school really did not prepare me for how much of my job was just...spreadsheets.

The Alan Ritchson stuff is pretty wild, and it teaches a good lesson. Don't want none, won't be none. A fight doesn't automatically become the other guy's fault or problem just because you lose.

There's a reason you can still reliably discern LLM output from human writing, and that's because its markedly inferior. Weighing speed vs quality is a consideration for many tasks in the world, but if I'm looking to read a book or an article, I could give a rip how long it took, I want quality.

I am never more proud of my partners and employees than when they show off the kind of scumbags they piss off. Glenn Greenwald, ladies and gentlemen.

Pro tip: An antifascist save one huge exception is a fascist. If you're curious why the targets of your bigotry and the broader left-of-center polity treat you like an inconvenient joke, that'd be why.

Nice of him to write his own obituary for everybody. Incredibly succinct, too.

Golf, I discovered today, is a perishable skill.

Folks, I'm probably gonna charge you so much more than $15,000 to fix what Claude fucks up. At your own risk.

So true its true of like, 80% of important precedent in most common law. Like, almost all important criminal procedure jurisprudence giving us what protection we have came from plaintiffs who were manifestly guilty. I'm still glad they picked the fights they picked and won, and you should be too.

Litigators who practice federally know this is in fact quite pointed.

I have a joke about a case I did, but I literally can't talk about it.

I will readily admit a reason I use this site much less these days is that its always good for at least one spectacular and galling display of antisemitism and that shit is corrosive to the soul. 99% of y'all are cool as hell, I just have no desire to see that every day, it's why I left X.

So much this. I'm not law enforcement. I don't have warrant power. If a client needs you found...you're getting found. There's no email service charging twenty bucks thats gonna make that outcome different unless your opsec has been perfect. Not good. Not great. Perfect.

Folks, some people need to start realizing that your outrage isn't gonna keep them safe by itself.

...fill your cars all the way up, loke, asap

Noem's done. Matter of time.

The thing about stuff like this I hate is the bad faith dishonesty is so, so fig leaf. It's straight up Trumpian. He knows about the post history, the podcast shit, all of it. He knows *you* know. But because it doesn't support the point he's making? He doesn't even hand-waive it. It never happened.

This Republican bullshit in Texas with the polling hours is so greasy. And it appears to be completely without reason or objective, they're just doing it to do it.

We're seeing the power of name recognition on an election with this one, is one of my reads. Crockett had it for some of this race. Then Talarico started getting his appearances and outhustling her on the face time front and this race flipped, fast and hard.

There's a saying a coach of mine once said that I remember like five times a day the last six years, I swtg. "Don't take advice on winning from losers."

Fuck. Here we go.

Teaching video game law at UW Law today, and, uh This place is so much nicer than where I went to school, good lord

I missed some layups for the absolutely absurd and visible racism, but hearing I nailed it so far

Nobody needs to watch this shit. Here, I'll summarize, if you're that curious. "A lot of people/Many people/Some people" "It's Joe Biden's fault" "It's beautiful" "Nobody has ever seen anything like it" "China" "Very unfair to me" "It's a shame what happened to me" "Tariffs are making us so rich"
