Me when I see one wasp.

Sir, the execution of the Iran bombing was brilliant. Everyone said it couldn’t be done but you did it. We want you to receive the Presidential Medal of Honor, and Freedom, and a new Honor Freedom, Peace medal. But youre not eligible to receive those while President. So if you could just resign 1st…

When it doubt, the answer is always Alexander Haig.

It’s very strange that I can remember the non-stop news coverage of 9/11, Afghanistan and Iraq. But today I couldn’t find any radio channels covering developments. Just a top of the news hour hit.

Legal Assistant who came over in merger: I didn’t know we did that kind of practice.

Me: Well, it’s kind of hard to put on a website that one your areas of practice is “royally fucking up someone’s day in civil rights cases.”

I have federal question jurisdiction anyway.

Their first mistake was naming the company El-Nasir Shipping and Imports.

Question for other federal court practitioners: On the case cover sheet where it asks for the amount in controversy, can I put "$Texas"?

I only like liver if served with fava beans and a nice Chianti.

This is what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps.

I had to block the tankie who said Marxists and communists are by definition anti-fascist and one skeet later said that people who ally with facists are facists. Pepperidge farms remembers when the Marxist and communists directly allied with the Nazis.

Breaking WaPo:

Pro- @kenwhite.bsky.social activists who say they are coordination with Popehat are circulating a draft executive order that claims China interfered with People Magazine’s 100 Sexiest Men Alive 2020 voting as a basis to declare an emergency unlocking extraordinary podcasting powers.

Election where the Democratic Party was on the wrong side of prevailing winds.

Same polls show Planter beating Collins. Without commenting on specific merits of Planter vs Mills, I do think people overestimate the incumbency advantage of Maverick politicians in states where an office and presidential voting split. Bob Casey, Rob Portman and Jon Tester all got bounced in an

And appears to be substantially ahead in the primary (granted, primary polling isn’t always great).

Do you know how hard it is to quote tweet on Twitter without it accidentally being a Nazi? That’s like half of twitter.

Why doesn’t Darrell Jackson, the largest of the Jacksons, simply not eat the others?

Every time someone says "we can accomplish something through a nationwide general strike" you can read the same sentence as "we can accomplish something through our latent powers of telekinesis"

This never would have happened if they had just released Half-Life 3.

At least they didn’t mandate he has to be a Jets fan.

Superhero, or just a fake superhero dressing up to take pictures with tourists in time square. Alien goo is making them all gay for the benefit of the DNC’s secret alien masters who generate said alien goo!”

Which is probably a good idea as it would spark unless Alex Jones attention. “Wake up America! The evil alien goo is turning the teenage super heroes gay! This goo is being spread by Hilary Clinton and Zoran Mamdani into the water supply of NYC. And the alien goo doesn’t know if you’re a real

But not evil Spider-Man under the influence of alien goo. Evil alien goo Spider-Man can never be gay.

Your honor, tMarvel comics have posited that there are infinite parallel universes occurring at all times. This means that not only are there alternate universes where Spider-Man’s gay, there are in fact infinite universes where Spider-Man’s gay. Therefore, Marvel has already depicted gay Spider-Man

It also controls how Spidey is depicted, including mandatory character traits, permitted costumes, and approved powers

Which suddenly makes me wish I was a different kind of lawyer...

Sony can’t make Spiderman gay! Only Marvel can make Spiderman gay! And that includes when Spiderman is wearing the Venom goo.

I refuse to believe this is something people can bet on.

What’s the early-modern equivalent? Parades (because of drill)?
