Which is fundamentally a psychological concept - needs less legal academics and more behavioural ones. Nancy Snow gets it. www.taylorfrancis.com/books/oa-edi...

Pour one out for the legal researchers who have forgotten this and think there is some magic about ‘law’ and ‘government’ that would make our systems more resilient against tyrants and we just haven’t discovered it yet.

4'10"?

That's it. Calling Stephen Miller "Peewee Vermin" from now on.

Stephen Miller responding to AOC calling Miller a clown and saying he is angry that he is 4’10”: We knew her brain didn't work—now we know their eyes don't work.

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.

Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.
Article reads:
Woman named as Archbishop of Canterbury in historic first 

The 63-year-old archbishop-designate is married to Eamonn Mullally, with whom she has two children. Originally from Woking in Surrey, she was the UK's chief nursing officer from 1999 to 2004.

Stephen Miller: "All that bullshit is done, over, it's finished. The gangbangers you deal with- they think they're ruthless? They have no idea how ruthless we are. They think they're tough? They have no idea how tough we are. They think they're hardcore? We are so much more hardcore than they are"

It is terribly depressing that the academy is more worried about how to teach students to use AI ‘correctly’ (and thus making them dependent on it) and not on making the (seemingly easy) case that it is ruinous for the planet and society.

As is so often the case with these sort of stories, a university ignoring its own internal faculty governance procedures is at the heart of this.

If you doubt that the REF is ridiculous, just explain how the REF works to any academic outside the UK. This will universally elicit shock, laughter or both.

Klein has one of the largest platforms in the country, if not the world. At a minimum, not knowing how to use that platform to achieve his supposedly liberal goals is profoundly lacking in imagination. At worst, is a profound moral failure.

ezra klein: "I don’t know what my role is anymore. I’ll be totally honest with you, man. I feel very conflicted about that question."

like, you're a leading liberal journalist and opinion setter in the age of fascism, and you don't know what your role is?

Like I said, I think he's broken.
