I keep saying this, but a fundamental problem with this moment is that the two other branches are rolling over and playing dead, and the founders just did not think that people would do that! www.lawdork.com/p/trump-is-s...

"But there has been joy, too — small delights, such as getting a haircut from his favorite barber or watching his dad play guitar during church services. And there have been big wins, like passing a “swallow test” so he could eat soft foods, including his grandpa’s homemade mashed potatoes." 💙

I had an input on my threat assessment module continuously now so I could get real-time updates instead of just checking it periodically, and yes, it was a constant source of irritation because it reacted to everything. No, it was not helping my anxiety.

(Sigh) Here we go: The main reason some enrollees actual incomes differ from what they reported is because ACA subsidies are based largely on what you EXPECT to earn the FOLLOWING year, and ~half of exchange enrollees are self-employed, which usually means a highly variable income. 1/

In light of SCOTUS's ruling in Skrmetti, @brittneymac15.bsky.social asked doctors what trans youth and their families need to know about navigating this. @teenvogue.com experts advise continuing to talk to affirming healthcare providers if you have them and exploring options for care out-of-state.

Nothing sums up the state of affairs for transgender Americans quite like the US Supreme Court denying trans people life-saving healthcare at the same time that the Trump administration shuts down suicide prevention programs for LGBTQ people. These bastards want us all dead.

The reasoning in Skrmetti is just repackaged “every race is punished equally, so nothing to see here” logic that Loving v. Virginia emphatically rejected.

#Medieval history people - would people of the 1100s in Britain have called a book (eg The Anglo Saxon Chronicle) a book? And I'm guessing there was no such profession as "historian" yet; would the closest equivalent be something like "chronicler"? Suggestions deeply appreciated.

Ranking Brad Lander first FWIW. Just a classic nerd public servant who has been sending out boring emails for years (complimentary) and he did something important today and spoke after with humility.

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles

I am watching Sen. Alex Padilla talk on the Senate floor about being assaulted last week, as I watch New York City controller Brad Lander get assaulted at immigration court. In between reports on the two MN Democrats shot, one murdered, last weekend. But both sides, people, both sides.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.
