I was reminded earlier today that I need to reconstruct my Twitter thread over here at some point on our backyard bird creek we made many years ago. Pinning this as point to start from whenever I can get to it. In the meantime, enjoy this fall Kinglet Pool Party. #birds

If I was designing math classes for people who hate math, and had small enough class sizes, I’d just run a D&D game that required the students to work out things like that. “Okay, you’re heading for the castle. It’s 75 meters away and 61 meters up. Do you think you’ll need climbing gear?”

CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

Call me a stickler, but I do not think former Supreme Court clerks who are now practicing lawyers with *multiple cases* pending before the Court should be publishing fawning op-eds about how “kind, humble, thoughtful and selfless” their old boss is

Ben Aguiñaga, Louisiana’s solicitor general, has appeared before the justices three times this term. In an op-ed, he describes his old boss as “kind, humble, thoughtful and selfless.”

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

The 2 justices appointed by Governor Sanders are using a way around that — they're just running for each other's seats.
