Since postliberalism is having another moment where people seems to be confused about what it is, here are a few papers that might be helpful: 1. The intellectual energy comes from Catholic integralism — for an early critique, see digital.sandiego.edu/sdlr/vol56/i...,

In the alternative universe in which we once lived or aspired to live, we described accountability as justice. And the legal profession swore dedication to that justice

We appreciate University Baptist Church!

With all the talk about ACA costs being out of control, they are actually quite similar to and slightly less than employer (group) health costs. The problem is health care costs, not the ACA.

I would watch this 12x and walk barefoot through glass before i would screen the revolution documentary.

Back from my first American Soc'y for Legal History conference. So generative and stimulating! And best of all I got to meet the awesome @marydudziak.bsky.social @katemasur.bsky.social and @gauthamrao.bsky.social (who won a medal!) IRL

Another reason why we need powerful women in academia. Women who fight these guys and, equally importantly, protect the next generation. Always, always make things better for them

Everyone has terrible college football taste at this conference. UCLA? BAYLOR? FLORIDA? Important teams--Texas--are playing

Buddy the Elf arriving in New York is simultaneously a top 10 ode to the city and a top ten montage scene

I'm a little jealous of your jolly rancher skies

“The Living Third Amendment” by @gelbach.bsky.social & @lsepper.bsky.social “In this paper we …” (You might not have realized it Raffi but Liz and I are the foremost social media scholars on The Third)

This whole thread is just a retraumatization of us kids with no fun no processed food parents. I legit tried to make friends based on their lil debbie snacks

Central Texas life is getting a sunburn before noon on November 8 🌞

My family so far has one car. Kids' activities threaten this model. And so i am grateful all the time for parents willing to carpool--we take, you return--and my colleague/friends who chauffeur me to work dinners. I want to do more, so much more of this. We can all lift each other's loads

I have been listening to @fivefourpod.bsky.social archives. In 2020, @notalawyer.bsky.social made a stray comment that Alito was going to launch hunger games in 2025...

Our regular BBQ place got its Michelin award again and now there is a long line. How dare y'all?

The killjoys on the Fifth Circuit have upheld Texas's ban on drag shows--a ban clearly aimed at speech

Way to stick it to homeless people and underpaid first responders. Shameful results in Austin tonight.

Dems need to run in every district. Our gerrymander gives Rs very thin margins. And maybe getting thinner. We have A LOT of districts.

Our votes are going predictably bad in Texas. Overwhelmingly stupid const amendments. But not just Texas, Texasing, Austin faced an enormous campaign against Prop Q, a barebones tax to maintain homeless services/parks/etc in the face of state cuts to taxes. And we are voting no. And it sucks

Holy cats. Glad to say I raised $500 for him.

CONFIRMED: Georgia Democrats have won their first statewide elections for non-federal offices since *2006.* The two Dem challengers, Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard, have ousted two GOP Republican commissioners on the state's utility commission.

After tonight, i never want to hear about the nyc mayor ever again. Happy or whatever for y'all but really, it's too much. It's like how you call it "the city"

This is art. Shakespeare had nothing on Bret Stephen's talent for comedy

Unless you are Jesus, you cannot add water to shampoo and make more shampoo/soap THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

All of our crime is soccer related

What did i just say

Listos! #AustinFC

My son also got a potato

Daylight savings is the best time. We should never leave it. Y'all in the North suffer obscene darkness. I went to college in Boston and discovered thensun could be gone by 4:15. Here, at the worst, we're looking at 5:30 but it's still unconscionable

The Three Musketeers still slaps and this cast is outstanding

2️⃣4️⃣ out.

"Congress has never let funding for these vulnerable populations lapse, even during previous shutdowns." Luckily, we won't see the rise in hungry families because the Trump administration has announced it will no longer gather data on and track food insecurity in America

A thread about Bsky, angelic historians, and black history. Edward T. Rhone faced racial discrimination in 1897 in Duluth. He sued under the MN civil rights act. He was born into slavery in Arkansas. I found Rhones there but I couldn't link him to them. Enter historian @lisachildsar.bsky.social

Am i happy with 2-1 win for lafc? Nope, but #AustinFC made them work their asses off. Everyone thought LA's win was a given. Turned out to be hard fought in LA's home game. The commentators are egregious, blowing smoke up lafc's asses. But LA is coming to Texas

LAFC's kits are ugly and, if i may, slightly too tight. That's right. Hitting SoCal where it hurts #AustinFC wins the fashion off

Stu, greatest goalie ever, bar none

Dale! Dale! ATX! 1-1 #AustinFC

This does not prove the value of law prof briefs. But it sure proves the value of @martylederman.bsky.social amicus briefs. He is singlehandedly slowing the Supreme Court's roll on Trump's deployment of national guard to our cities

We get bad refs. But here the ref literally stood in the way of our #AustinFC play

Owen Wilson rooting for LAFC?!?! Forgetting his roots. Texas, forever, man #AustinFC

This was really fun! The Normal Men and I talked about excluding Planned Parenthood from Medicaid, miscarriage management and EMTALA, and attacks on abortion pills. Listen wherever you get your podcasts

Interesting. Wisc PP gave up its “essential community provider" designation and no longer fits the definition of “prohibited entity” and can continue to see Medicaid patients

I had forgotten how history sometimes hits you like a gut punch. Today, I hit a dead end on finding the origins of a formerly enslaved man born in Phillips County, Arkansas in 1855. The 1860 slave register shows 706 five-year-old boys held in slavery. Seven hundred and six

What's really scary to these guys is a woman in the workforce

The UC Regents finally released the “settlement agreement” the Trump administration proposed in August. It’s a doozy. UC alumni, faculty, staff, students, parents, donors—and all citizens of California: Now is the time to let the UC Regents know you do not want them to sign this bad deal.

Who was president in 2020 is the question of our day.

Maybe I've been teaching health law too long. But when Republicans make up a problem-"phantom Obamacare enrollees"-and demand a "solution" that would enshittify the exchanges, drive up uninsurance, and harm many Americans, how about hard no? Not whatever this is? www.politico.com/live-updates...
