This is one of the funniest things I've heard in years. Bravo/a all involved!

We are such a complete mess. 🤮

NASA has unveiled a stunning new view of Jupiter, captured by the powerful James Webb Space Telescope—the most advanced space observatory ever built. The image reveals the giant planet in extraordinary detail, showcasing its swirling storms, glowing auroras, and dynamic atmosphere like never before,

I did get an email, but not until I saw your post here.

That sucks.

Reminder that in this house we do not trash other genres of books to support the genre we like the most. One, come on, we're grown ups. Two, the bottom line is people reading and loving books. Three, every writer you know has friends working other genres, don't trash their friends, thanks.

For the uninitiated, that is the South Side Bridge in Charleston, WV that Chuck Yeager infamously flew a possibly stolen P-80 Shooting Star under after flying it from Califonia to see his folks

Best Star Trek crew, wrong answers only.

OPINION PER CURIAM. This appeal involves John C. Farris's challenge to his sentence of imprisonment. But today's opinion does not resolve the underlying merits of Farris's appeal. We instead address the conduct of Farris's attorney, Steven N. Howe, who was appointed to represent Farris pursuant to the Criminal Justice Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3006A. By his own admission, Howe used artificial intelligence to draft the briefs in this case and then filed them without properly verifying the cited legal authorities. The result was multiple misrepresentations of law to this Court. This opinion details Howe's conduct and the consequences that follow.

Oh my fucking god. It’s never okay for a lawyer to use AI to write a brief, but it’s EXTREMELY not okay when the lawyer in question is assigned counsel for a criminal defendant!!!!

Why would I use "AI," I actually know how to fucking write

DUAL NATIONALITY AND ELECTION RICHARD W. FLOURNOY, JR. (1921)

Just so everyone knows, the Solicitor General straight up lied about the 1921 law review article he kept talking about. quick thread:

A few weeks ago Leeds had to wear an odd color combination for shorts/socks because of EPL rules designed to avoid kit clashing for those with color blindness. I can only imagine what those folks make of this game. #USMNT

Yeah, the US kits read white on TV, regardless of the red stripes. Shame.

My wife used to work for Border's for years and says "Lol. Yep. That's weird but it wouldn't be entirely unexpected." 😳

Very true. As a public defender the ones I follow most closely largely fly under the radar for most folks (like Rico today).

Screenshot from "South Park" episode in which a small gnome (in a pointy green hat) stands in front of a sign laying out their 3-step plan. "Phase 1" now reads "jail call excerpts" and Phase 3 reads "guilty guilty guilty!", but Phase 2 still is just a question mark.

Filed a reply brief today in which I got to compare the Government's argument to the underpants gnomes from "South Park" (complete with law review citation to make it legit!).

HOLY SPIRIT: Yo J, good to see you're awake.

JESUS: Felt like I just did 10 rounds with the Devil.

HS: No time for that now. You see that fig tree up ahead? Go up and press triangle to investigate it.

J: Don't tell me. It's not bearing fruit.

That hurts! I can see where Geddy's voice can get to people, though.

I'll talk, just please make it stop! 😭

This is fascinating (on multiple levels), but the 173-page footnote will haunt my dreams for a while.

Not the worst result, but misleading (Miami coasted in the second half), but this whole enterprise - playing a "home" game in another city, in another stadium, solely to cash in on that Messi money - is a joke and symptom of why the club is so far adrift in the league (and has been for years).

Nice.

Listening to the Hunter oral argument from earlier this week - may you find someone who loves you as fervently as the Government loves appeal waivers. Jeez.
