Why are there fireworks tonight? 🤷 because it’s Miami I guess.

First dog I’ve known who gets mad rather than scared at the sound of fireworks, she burst out the back door barking and looking for something to attack

Trending: Horror representation, State of the Union, Larry Summers, Resident Evil Requiem

So just variations on the one topic then

One of the local television stations growing up would always do a Christmas commercial thank you from all of the staff and every year, my cousin and I would looking forward to hearing the message from Gay Balls

I remember when I wrote a article about crabbers I was happy to actually not have to wade into the whole “ do I try and put an awkward non-gender specific version in of this job type or not” for once

Oysterman

I’ve heard that before

Growing up, we used to call harvesting oysters “chiseling” and harvesting clams “scratching” so I guess you could make those into nouns

Came outside to warm up for a few minutes in the sun. Not the only one. Lagoon at the edge of the parking lot

A big fluffy husky mix with bright blue eyes and a prehensile tongue, swiping a pair of French fries out of my hand. From this angle she looks like a fur-covered balloon with tiny white feet.

yeah the world is a tire fire, but look at this dog

Still satellite imagery of a nor'easter. This image contains the GeoColor product from the GOES-19 weather satellite from the morning of 2026-02-23.

A stunning satellite shot of a powerful nor'easter.

Planned capacity additions are 51% solar, 28% battery, 14% wind, 7% gas, everything else is a rounding error

EIA says 93% of planned US grid additions in 2026 are solar + battery + wind

Rich shits ruined Coconut Grove now they’re coming for us in an adjacent neighborhood

This lot had a low income four unit apartment building on it a decade ago

Couple of Lamborghinis, one of them smooshed

Same driveway that had a crashed cybertruck on it a few months back #Miami

The thing that stands out the most in this decision is the fact that Gorsuch spent his entire opinion going after all the women on the court when THEY ALL AGREED WITH HIM. He must be fun at parties.

Thomas dissenting states that Congress cannot just willy-nilly delegate things to the president ever but paradoxically it can do just that somehow if it’s to a president that Thomas likes.

Kavenaugh just repeats the administrations arguments as truth. I don’t see an independent opinion by Alito.

Barrett actually sounds reasonable and is mercifully brief, her entire concurring opinion is telling Gorsuch to STFU (correctly, because he goes on quite a bender and it starts to look like AI wrote it).

I mean, I would. Like when you quote somebody’s words back at them. It is not generally done with kind intent.

I haven’t even gotten to the dissents but I’m not sure I’m in the mood to read what Alito and Company have to say

-Gorsuch wants to re-argue the student loan forgiveness case apparently, so he can take another victory lap

-Kagan and company basically applying Roberts “major questions doctrine” but refuse to call it that because it would mean they were wrong in the student loan forgiveness case

OK, I’m actually reading the tariff decision on my lunch break and I’m no lawyer but I am fairly amused because these folks need some group counseling

-Roberts claiming the Court has “long held” reservations RE “major questions doctrine” then exclusively sites his own decisions from 2022 on

OK, I finished reviewing the boring article, and as a reward the journal sent me another review to do. This is actually a revision of something I told them to reject first time round so this will be fun.

Just found out about the SCOTUS tariff decision and whoa

My wife convinced me to watch an A-Team movie from 2010 and A, I did not know this movie ever existed, and do not remember hearing about it at the time, and B, it was actually kind of fun although a little too much CGI for my taste

Did BA weld some shit together to overcome the bad guys? Yes he did

We are busy watching the A-Team season two here

[pauses]

No, I’m still not willing to pay for the subscription tier, thank you

Have this on my office shelf. Keep meaning to read it. Christmas present from a couple years ago.

PJ O’Rourke was a funny MFer but he wasn’t a reactionary, more in the HL Mencken tradition.
