It's interesting to watch the imperial SCOTUS take shape. Roberts' legacy is now enshrined as the era when the Court vastly expanded its reach and activism, rapidly overturning bedrock precedent targeted by their conservative patrons. I wish I also didn't have to practice law in this era.

WTF is up with this game? The camera angle is totally weird, the ref is worse than a kid's game official, and it's just all so, so bad....

Holy shit! He just called play on while showing a yellow!!!

I am used to CONCACAF referee shenanigans, but I am absolutely flabbergasted by what I am watching in this game. A yellow card being given *while play is allowed to continue*?!?!? This ref is so far out of his depth #USMNT #CopaAmerica

What the hell is happening in this match?

After today's immunity ruling, I really, really need one of these now... time to go back to the monarchy.

Beginning to really regret my choice of professions. I didn't realize how much sanity and progress had rested on the good-faith effort of nine unelected individuals without a political axe to grind. That system no longer exists...or maybe it never did, but at least they pretended better.

The Netherlands and Austria are looking at Slovakia beating England currently and Switzerland downing Italy yesterday and thinking that side of the bracket is looking even better... #Euros

Fun Fact: the minimum clearance required by law for interstate highway overpasses was determined by the height of ICBM transport vehicles like this one, seen here squeezing an (unarmed) Atlas ICBM under an overpass in Benson, Arizona, en route to the Atlantic Missile Range, on December 1, 1956.

I will say that the destruction of Chevron is a double-edged sword. If you don't think there aren't a hundred ways groups opposed to certain major projects can now use this decision to slow or stop them, you'd be wrong. Chevron was always a way that courts kept shit off their dockets. Not anymore.

At some point down the road I am going to quote Justice Kagan in a brief-- in a footnote, obvs.

And there it is--what this new majority has been up to all along... "we generalist judges know better than the experts in the area of law..."--and we're taking the power back to say that.

The most bone-chilling thing about all this is how CNN keeps on like nothing. "Just business as usual." Mad-fucking-ghoulish.

Absolutely garbage refereeing in the Czechia v. Turkiye game today. Istvan Kovacs should not get any games in the next round. Absolute shiiiiite. #Euro2024

Somehow (and with lots of luck) the Netherlands ended up in a good part of the bracket. #Euros

“Chances are, you’re never ever going to have to use this. If you do, it’s gonna be scary,” trauma nurse Kate Carleton told the 8- and 9-year-olds. “But because we’ve taught you what to do, it makes it a little less scary.”

The ref in this Portugal-Turkiye game is not very good. #Euros
