The books are good but I would support a Tolkien revival on the sole basis that people really need to understand how dumb it is to call a company Palantir

Jamal is too nice to say "utter hypocrisy," but that's what this is.

Today's #SCOTUS treats *all* coercive relief against the executive branch as imposing irreparable harm on the government. For that proposition, they cite a 2014 opinion by ... Chief Justice Roberts.

Its absence here is deafening.

A small cohort of ("prominent"?) law professors are trying to portray John Eastman as some kind of innocent victim of viewpoint discrimination, and his disbarment as some kind of assault on the First Amendment.

Setting aside the monstrous public-private partnership here I don't even understand how this could work legally. People living abroad can inherit property, and the cost of finding them and dealing with international legal issues would fall on the estate, reducing what's available to everyone else.

Elon Musk says a 'universal high income' from the government is the answer to AI-fueled job losses. Elon Musk endorsed a "universal high income" in response to AI-driven job losses, and says there won't be inflation due to surging productivity.

Socially nationalist, fiscally socialist

I like to imagine that Justice Taney went to the Oracle and asked how the slavery question could be resolved. Receiving the answer "at a court house", he wrote Dred Scott.

Our two microblogging sites are the "relitigate Hitler" site and the "relitigate Stalin" site. One wonders what they're doing over on Threads.

Ah, I see we have a pro-Cretaceous administration!

(there were no ice caps, sea levels hundreds of meters higher, and forests all the way to the poles)

And note to Florida, you don't exist in this climate.

One of the virtues of being America's newest law school is that we don't have to worry about this problem, won't have to for a generation, and I hope we never do.

I love IPAs and agree there are too many of them relative to other styles. But I'm also confident brewers are going where the demand is. Who is buying all these B- grade IPAs?
