My partner and I were sobbing this week

I don’t know how this show isn’t getting more hype it’s so good

I did not know this existed but holy shit maybe it’s the lower or suggestion but the bass drum and attack on the guitar tone sound so insanely Albini (which is a good thing)!

As Winston Churchill said, you need me on that wall

But first… As the world’s largest therapy service, BetterHelp has matched 3 million people with

Probably stuff on liquidated damages in contract would be relevant

I mean, obviously I’m on team LPE but surely, SURELY there are L&E people who could put together a coherent critique grounded in a knowledge of the literature, if that’s what you wanted??

Fodder for the “give them enough rope to hang themselves” theory of article selection!

You gotta wonder if the editor is a huge LPE fan who recognized that letting this and the Sanga screed stand in for the anti-LPE perspective could only make LPE look better. (Haven’t reach the Chilton et al one yet but it seems both not terrible and also not intended as a takedown in the same way.)

Guitar #2 way out of tune too. Real high school talent show hours

(It was bugging me that I couldn’t remember where this came from so, for the record, it’s the “conjunction fallacy” and the example comes from Kahneman & Tversky, of course)

Hasn’t worked for me yet but maybe I just need to be more bold

True for much law review garbage but this rant is particularly thinly sourced

What could it possibly even mean to say that in reality markets have been harnessed to secure meaningful labor protections?? If you have tenure at Yale they just let you say stuff!

lol never mind I read the first few pages and I now see that if you tried to edit this to make it tonally fair-minded you’d have about 100 words left. What a joke

Not that I have tremendous faith in Chicago 2Ls that did well in civ pro but you’d like to think they’d flag “stumbling upon” as an inappropriately insulting way to describe what happened

A proven businessman with a record of success and just the kind of entrepreneurial savvy politics needs? Also no

This is like that stats cliche where you add “…and a feminist” and people say the thing is more likely even though the new thing is a proper subset of the old. Important for those claiming last week that the result showed that people oppose care *period*!

And in case any law reviews are looking for a great article, “Lewis Powell, Neoliberalism, and the Privatization of Public Law" is looking for a home

30% seems insanely high. When I was single (90% of my 20s and early 30s) I would gear up for a phase of “actively dating” (i.e. making a real effort to meet someone) like one month per year, and the rest of the time I was either feeling hopeless, pining for someone, or letting fate take its course

A frictionless spinning in a void, if you will

Japan?

If they’re in theater you’d think the brass would be managing supply chain logistics rather than sending them to local diners run by insurgents. Poor leadership

I might date the decline slightly earlier but admittedly I’m not the intended audience…

People without the social skills to be investment bankers

(This is a TW subtweet tbc I do not generally harbor this complaint)

Not easy enough if you ask me

The bums lost

Winnie (née Missy) absolutely loved to sleep in the sun. If there’s a heaven for dogs she’s asleep in a sunbeam now
