Getting cited by a judge for the proposition that SCOTUS is just chaotically throwing around unhinged ideas is definitely a major “achievement unlocked” moment. My envy is so green you’d think I was a leprechaun.

"For generations, the U.S. academy has been a pillar of soft power and economic dynamism. That is being thrown away now—not on the scale of years but of months, even weeks. The damage being done is not yet irreparable but that point is rapidly (rapidly) approaching."
