I’m still reading the opinion but there’s a lot of good stuff in here, including the statement that the law was jaw-droppingly broad

Curation is speech, motherfuckers, as it is and as it has been.

This is money. “But the interest Texas has asserted cannot carry the day: It is very much related to the suppression of free expression, and it is not valid, let alone substantial.”

Kagan, J., wishes Greg Abbot to inform her as to whether or not she stuttered.

Specifically, the Texas court is ordered to remember how the First Amendment fucking works.

Dissents as and if I have time.

At least we had some good news today.

I am fundamentally an optimist. I have to be, because my imagination is strong, and the other option is that I never get out of bed again.

well put (I say as I look for a field to crash land my jet)

I hear you. Between this, the upcoming election, and the simmering bird flu there are a lot of dark thoughts that need to be overcome.

This doesn't mean copyright though, it's speech in the 1a sense?

Yeah, that's what this case was about.

Thank you! 🙏

Thanks for the link. I'm loving Kagan's dog walking of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.
