A statement from Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan:
This is dope
Tell your chair that my February flower just bloomed. A bit late but still good news.
You say, "There, there chair" while softly patting its back three times.
let us also stipulate that as the chair‘s notional guardian, my primary concern is with what message will work, not what message is intellectually defensible to the nth iteration
(The chair is sweet and supportive but not very smart)
please note; there are no obvious context clues for whether the chair feels regret and self recrimination for some particular bad act, or fear and despair about the probable future, or simply an inchoate rage at the demands of existing as a moral agent in a relentlessly gray universe
How do you reassure your chair when it is feeling very sad?
in all candor I’d heard the rough equivqlent of it before, though not with they moniker.
Because I am a tool I object
And also, simultaneously, lol/sob
Yep lol. James Madison on May 19, 1789: "[I]t is in the discretion of the Legislature to say upon what terms the office shall be held, either during good behavior or during pleasure."
By June 16th, Madison had changed his opinion.
oh my
short version is bc madison was a warrior on one side of this debate. Like citing hart on who won hart dowel in
slightly longer version is Madison went from saying constitution doesn’t say to saying constitution TOtally says in like 2 months
Longer still, the Jed paper is great
I don’t even know what that is but it sounds contagious 😩
what’s most striking to me phenomenologically is how unruffled so many serious conservatives are about it.
I just genuinely don’t understand
I can inhabit a lot of viewpoints in teaching, and imo that’s pedagogically crucial
But man i struggle to channel the Roberts court’s dismissal of historical practice and cluelessness re founding. These guys think govt should work like X and they’re so sure that theyll constitutionalize it. 🤷♂️

what I’m going to super enjoy is teaching Slaughter
what is law? I can tell you what the court says the rules are! How much do we explore how they got there? love that journey can’t wait
these are not serious people
teaching Seila law tomorrow and I LOL during prep every time at the cheek of citing madison to summarize the Indecision of 1789
For the first time he thought I can do this. So good on Prof. Peters, who encouraged students as Grant Gilmore had encouraged her, despite the slings and arrows and humiliations. / End.
He came from an underprivileged background to Yale. He asked Prof. Peters in class how do you interpret this provision of the UCC. She said, well, what do you think? He said this changed his life.
Coda. I was talking with a very famous professor after I was appointed to a professorship in Peters' name at the University of Connecticut. He told me that she inspired him to become a professor. Why?
In honor of international Women's Day I am going to tell you a story about Ellen Ash Peters, the first female professor at Yale Law and the first female Justice on the Connecticut Supreme Court.
So much history. The most history. You’ll be tired of history.
