oh yeah I wasn't meaning to try to discredit them, just trying to explain why they even have an intelligence service
The TL;DR is that recently-leaked internal memos from 2016 reveal that John Roberts and the court's conservatives invented the shadow docket because of nakedly ideological opposition to Obama's Clean Power Plan.
The treaty has been suspended since the latest major flare-up in Kashmir in 2025:
Lloyd's List is one of the world's oldest continuously running journals, with weekly shipping news from London since approximately 1734. In 2022, it was sold to Montagu Private Equity and then reorganized as Maritime Insights & Intelligence Limited, which I guess explains what they're doing here:
So, I'd missed this. #NHPolitics
Surprisingly, less of one than certain other walks that might look shorter at first glance! Zigzagging back and forth up and down consecutive streets is actually a much better way to build up distance than going really far in one particular direction, I've found.
I mean that's just basic Mill; the catch of course, though, is that the "to themselves" vs. "to others" line is often fuzzier than many people like to admit

Meant to do a Pikmin Bloom day in review yesterday, but my internet connection was so choked by my Switch 2 redownloading all my Switch 1 games that I couldn't really use BlueSky… anyways, I went out for a walk along Manchester St. and back while I was waiting. Didn't quite make it to Pembroke.
