I’m so upset about this. There’s no reason—just wrong.

That said, I’ve been looking for a red suede pump. 👠♥️

This is disgusting. Like, funny-disgusting, but also disgusting.

Conservatives used to worry about an internal, militarized police and surveillance state.

For the generation that thinks you can get high off NyQuil or Mountain Dew. 🙄

You and McEwan. That’s about right. Congratulations!

Right now, some young screenwriter is pounding out a draft of EYEBROWS.

If/when Democrats regain control of Congress, the path is clear. No clerks. No building. No shadow docket. Nothing, until you stop ignoring the law, data, history, precedent, & the plain meaning of words in the Constitution. And there will be 25 of you, with 9 chosen by lottery for any one case.
Again, because the 9 Wizards In Robes, of both parties, believe they & SCOTUS are entitled by God to be an all-powerful Super-legislature, adding seats (& slashing the clerks/building budget, & making them ride the circuit, etc.) has now become the only serious “moderate” & “pro-democracy” position.
Justice Sotomayor suggests—implausibly—that justices somehow have a vested property interest in their office. Yet another reason why relying on judges to be reformers is an absolute disaster.

Oof! I picked twenty instead of ten... 🫤

My pleasure! "Realism" is a parlor trick, but as you can tell I'm biased toward it. No superheroes in this crowd...

Some of the foreign films have lame English titles—Chien de Garde becomes Family First, La Terra dell' Abbastanza is called Boys Cry—but are worth a watch if you can find them.
