An interesting NY Times "Sidebar" on the decline in #SCOTUS use of summary reversals and the possible relationship to the arrival of Amy Coney Barrett. Since SumRevs usually begin as relisted cases, of obvious interest to me! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/24/u...

we are NOT beating the allegations

what the hell lone commissions open once more docs.google.com/forms/d/1hQ1...

This is what I’m on about. As attorneys are getting sanctioned left and right, bar association CLEs are still convincing them it’s okay, if not outright compulsory, to use AI. How is a five figure sanction good for any client’s interests?!

I can't believe this is still happening: a court sanctioned an attorney $15k for filing briefs with hallucinated citations www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/...

Comic is still being worked on, it's just grown an extra page or two... Can you believe I started this thing in October?

#compsplatoon I've made a document detailing my team's three-step recruitment process! When it comes to finding the right teammate, it's important to be thorough. Hope you find it useful!!! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Today is Chi-Shoals #32, the second qualifier for the LAN Championship Showdown! It will be streaming on twitch.tv/squidwest at 12pm ET Let’s crown our second qualifier bid!

#BREAKING: #SCOTUS issues order holding "in abeyance" President Trump's application to let him fire Hampton Dellinger until next Wednesday (when the temporary restraining order keeping Dellinger in place expires). In other words, a significant (and short-lived) punt.

BREAKING: Trump loses the first emergency plea of his second term at the Supreme Court. The case concerns Trump‘s removal of Hampton Dellinger as head of the Office of Special Counsel.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

NEW: One of Sean Combs’s lawyers filed a motion to withdraw as counsel overnight, raising attorney-client privilege and asserting in an affidavit that “under no circumstances can I continue to effectively serve as counsel for Sean Combs, consistent with the ABA Standards for Criminal Justice.”

My team Death Crab for Cutie is looking for a few more coaches! We're Div 9, hoping to get SeSa banned. Scheduled practice on Thursdays, with unscheduled practices happening often throughout the week. Looking for more experienced players to VOD review with us and give pointers. DM me! #compsplatoon

Publicly abandoning American and Ukranian democracy on the same day.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

valentine’s thing i only just got around to coloring

increasingly unclear if there's any way to work for this administration as a lawyer and remain on the right side of your ethical responsibilities, especially for people who appear in federal court and have explicitly taken an oath to protect the constitution

NYT: Is Trump King? Legal Experts Differ

We are back for day two in front of Judge Reyes in Talbott v. Trump, the challenge to Trump's anti-trans military executive order. The plaintiffs are seeking a preliminary injunction; we do not expect a ruling until after a hearing after the military issues its implementing guidance next week.

the girl to boss em all #dinerdash #fanart #flashgames

Chief Justice Roberts has ordered that a response to the government's emergency application in the Dellinger case be filed by 2 p.m. (ET) tomorrow. That quick turnaround suggests that #SCOTUS is hoping to rule sometime this week. For much more background, see: www.stevevladeck.com/p/125-the-co...

#compsplatoon, if there are any div8-7 teams built around pen or dive comps, we'd like to be scrim partners! Our biggest weakness is dive/pen (in particular), so we'd love to go against that :) dm @entomolojest on discord if you can! We tend to play at or before 8pm EST 🦑🐙❤️

i spent like 2 hours making this please spread

Here we go: The Acting Solicitor General has asked #SCOTUS to immediately freeze (and vacate) the district court order that had temporarily reinstated Hampton Dellinger atop DOJ’s Office of Special Counsel: utexas.box.com/s/h0m91y7nes... I’ll have *much* more on this in tomorrow’s “One First.”
