I know many lawprofs just love ideas & have been trained to consider most (all?) ideas as moot problems. The problem is that sometimes there are real life stakes

I want to say again to academics who are interested in public writing. Look locally. Sure national outlets are good and I do that too, but this kind of visibility in your community can have a real impact.

I really enjoy seeing traditionally, perhaps even stereotypically masculine men also be legit good dudes Earlier today JD Vance claimed our culture tries to suppress masculinity just bc men wanna tell jokes over beers; the implicit part here is that the jokes are, like Vance, bigoted and unfunny

This could be one way that the Trump administration attacks abortion access, which in red states is now largely conducted by sending pills through the mail.

Why aren't (most) Democrats responding as is required to the hostile takeover of our government? They are presently only hearing from their customers (voters) and not the people who hired them (donors). Corporate America is so far quiet about the coup. Want Dems to step up? Pressure their donors.

Just called Gov. Hochul at 518-474-8390 and left a message with a staffer for her that started with "Where the fuck do you get off?", identified this as a power grab for Albany, and ended with me politely thanking the staffer for conveying the message, so I think I'm taking all of this pretty well.

Three buses just blew up overnight in Israel near Tel Aviv, with nobody on board two of them (third also possibly empty, not yet confirmed). Other bombs since discovered. Odds are they were supposed to explode in the morning when commuters were on them for a huge mass casualty attack.

Some federal workers have started to express their grievances at Tesla locations. In San Francisco federal workers and others staged a protest against DOGE cuts outside a Tesla showroom. Musk and Trump have now laid off up to 220,000 federal employees. www.ktvu.com/news/federal...

Worse than appeasement. Appeasement is making concessions under threat, hoping that will avoid war (which is usually naive; they'll demand more). After 3 years of war and a million casualties, it's not appeasement. Trump is trying to help Russia's aggression achieve what Russia's military could not.

Republicans will lie and claim it’s not because of the abortion bans, but it absolutely is: “The surge in this life-threatening condition, caused by infection, was most pronounced for patients whose fetus may still have had a heartbeat when they arrived at the hospital”

Heartbroken. Even though we have long suspected they were gone. This image has been seared on the inside of my eyelids since Oct 7. I see them every time I close my eyes. RIP Shiri, Kfir and Ariel, & all the other innocent victims. May we some day be able to honor your loss with peace & rebuilding.

Congestion pricing is still in effect. The Trump admin merely announced an intention to withdraw approval from at some point in the future, and the MTA has already gone to court to attempt to torpedo that attempt.

"For him to cancel congestion pricing is insane. It just shows that he doesn’t really care about New Yorkers," said one straphanger. "He's a scumbag," said another.
