Oh my god

Fifty years ago, her father’s friend was taken at gunpoint on Long Island. Then he went on with his life — and that’s the part that haunts her.

You had me at “exceedingly dry in-jokes for recherché subcultures”

CBC has a story about the immunity ruling where they quote a bunch of profs saying that it's inappropriate to read the ruling literally because the examples are all a bridge too far, which seems insane to me when the whole point is to excuse an invasion of the Capitol, which is, like, a big deal!!

ANALYSIS | Did the Supreme Court really just give U.S. presidents dictator-like assassination powers? | CBC Newswww.cbc.ca Did the U.S. Supreme Court really just give presidents dictatorial rights to murder their political opponents? Liberal justices argued that's the shocking possibility following the court's ruling on Trump's immunity case. CBC News asked constitutional scholars, who said though it's technically true, it will never happen in practice.

Hiked the Chief yesterday and then biked out to Trout Lake and from there to Bard and my legs are just ｗｒｅｃｋｅｄ today

Some (if pressed: many) things about the production of Bard on the Beach's "Twelfth Night" didn't work for me but the manic energy of the cast pulled it off. Particularly enjoyed Evelyn Chew's Maria and Aidan Correira, the star of Arts Club's "Tartuffe", as Orsino. Listen for the Peaches homage.

@hyemin.bsky.social appreciated your perspective on What To Do About Biden on ratsec this week; thought it was helpful the way you introduced a vision of presidential leadership to the conversation. Good luck in law school!

Chinese Canadian Museum gala tonight was lovely, but a little weird when a white city councillor hectored the crowd to shut up to listen to her marvel at Canada's progress since 1907, when people like her were kicking the skulls of this crowd's ancestors to the fucking curb on this very street

will stancil seems upset

among other very American things about this: plaintiff awarded $31k in legal fees

Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸

I think they should issue copies of this book when you renew your BC service card; I find it deeply inspiring. Though it sounds like I need a bug net if I want to bag any of these this month

i love america's public servants and i nonetheless want to meet whoever was in the conference room that originated this requirement and whack them each with a salmon

did you know the whole-ass north carolina voter file is just hanging out there on the internet www.ncsbe.gov/results-data... the docs note "pii such as birth date and driver's license number are not included" which is funny in light of having name, address, phone, race, birth year, & birth state

adopting this as my mid-years resolution tbh

do you think some people here consider participating in offline hobbies or developing offline friendships instead of cosplaying as cops online? anyways, I think I’ll go hiking this morning and touch some literal grass, etc etc

How accurate is the weather forecast in your city? Niko Kommenda and I learned that NWS just began doing gridded assessments of forecast accuracy. We got the data and mapped of how many days into the future they get within 3°F of the observed high temp. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

The president can legally order the Purge

I think everyone should probably be less confident in their predictions about what might happen if Biden steps down from the ticket

Super impressed by the production values at Minimum Viable Demos in Vancouver??

some good news, for joe biden

Don’t Worry, America: The 3 A.M. Phone Call Is a Mythwww.politico.com Fears of Trump’s amateurism have revived Hillary’s most famous ad. In truth, the president is almost never awakened at that hour.

I would be completely fine with President Kamala Harris though I would like to be reassured that she can find Ukraine and Gaza on a map; would love to see her doing some interviews

Roberts, overruling Chevron with incredible and unearned hubris: "Perhaps most fundamentally, Chevron’s presumption is misguided because agencies have no special competence in resolving statutory ambiguities. Courts do."

A fundamentally undemocratic court that has been controlled by Republican nominees for 55 consecutive years just seized control of the whole damn government. Yet another reason Democrats should center the Supreme Court in their campaigns. (More on this soon!)

Here’s the Loper Bright decision expressly overruling Chevron and radically reordering American government, probably for the worse. Chief Justice Roberts wrote it, and the vote went on party lines. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...

folks trying to clean this debate up like we don't all have eyes and ears and a memory. i wanna win too but yikes

Flipping between CNN & MSNBC...Why is David Axelrod's suit wet?? Wtf?
