City attorney picks have been a menace going back close to 20 years now but I gotta say that Jacob has really found his White House counsel rather than the attorney who is required to represent the whole of the city under that pesky charter.

Everything is so stupid all the time now
Speak for your fucking self, limey.
writing something right now inviting the reader to compare this complaint to Patel's defamation complaint and spot the differences lol
some days i can't predict what will be the thing that just does me in, but today it's definitely the DOJ indicting the SPLC for using paid informants, a thing which is apparently only a crime when liberal groups do it, do i have that right? it's exhausting and enraging and i don't own enough drugs.
what, is the DOJ mad that their paid informants are leaving them for higher paying private sector jobs?
clare locke y'all this is gonna get *rugged*

Can't believe tomorrow is the 10th anniversary of @snipy.bsky.social and I not doing a Facts of Life podcast
As @kathryn1.bsky.social flagged earlier today…the Volokh Conspiracy army are preparing to grasp at every imaginable straw to make this about “the leak” instead of “Republican justices made up fake law because they were worried about their personal stock portfolios”
This is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read (w alt text)
and now
the end is near
and so i face
the loss of website
I'm excited to share that we've made a collection of historic Supreme Court Records and Briefs available via

i'm so goddamn angry and i do not know how i will ever get past this.
high as shit right now from my completely analog glass dab straw and torch and trying to figure out what the hell i'd do if this process instead somehow involved me pulling on a shitty vape that is also somehow on the the blockchain.
dunno why you're such a wuss. we've only endured 16+ months of nationwide trauma and a teardown of democracy exacerbated by our home state being under siege from our own government for months, pockmarked by our neighbors getting abducted and killed, followed by a brutal war of choice...oh, oh wait.
niche skeet for the olds: Paris' "The Devil Made Me Do It" holds *way* the fuck up
"Each of the foregoing statements and implications is false. They are so demonstrably and obviously false, or easily refuted, that it was at best reckless to publish them."
Yes, that is how you demonstrate actual malice. Great job, dudes.
I see Kash is going with the same "I denied these statements to the press therefore publishing them at all was defamation with actual malice" approach Trump has floated, but somehow makes it seem even dumber
'US political reporters smugly praise messages concealed in their pocket squares while wearing suits to an event alongside the people destroying the constitution' is really too on point as a satire.
In 2024 The Conversation had 8.3M in revenue and 7.8M in expenses and paid $0 to writers. Is that really ok with you?

Goddamn Jessie Ware never misses. So good.
Not sure to distrust more: Iran saying it to Trump, Trump saying to to CBS News, or CBS News reporting it.
Here’s is the problem with characterizing J6 as viewpoint discrimination: it is not. It was an attempt to overturn a lawful election. We have been here as scholars and we have a choice for history: we cannot rewrite public memory to excuse violent anti-democratic acts.
aw, goddammit. honestly would never have expected this
dying at "he does not represent me and he sure as hell does not represent the Catholic Church." he is the literal pope.
I couldn't get tix for that show so my brother and I went to the Let it Be performance, where Natalie was super nervous so at one point she just started handing out random 45s from a stack in the store somewhere. She gave my brother Lulu's "To Sir With Love" and has it still nearly 30 years later.
