Man, imagine you're minding your own business, getting kind of drunk with your friends at a picturesque brewery in Maine, when suddenly John Roberts walks by and you get to start heckling him. Must have felt incredible. That's the dream. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/u...
The chief justice used to preside over a Supreme Court whose members were afforded more privacy and freedom than many other public officials. Once, years ago, Mr. Lipson and the chief justice found themselves up the peninsula from Port Clyde without a car, Mr. Lipson recalled in an interview. So he stuck out his thumb by the side of the road and a pickup truck pulled over. He and the nation’s top jurist hopped in the back and hitchhiked back to town.

Now, Mr. Lipson said, he is cautious about introducing his friend to strangers. This year, on an outing to nearby Monhegan Island, people recognized the chief justice as he walked by a brewery and started to chant: You should be ashamed.

An underrated part of the Schmitt zero ball knowledge faceplant is when Schiff and Booker start being like, “Wtf is going on here?” Schmitt gets snippy. “You can criticize my questioning when my time is up!” yadda yadda. Then when his time is up and Klobuchar starts to criticize his questioning…

You just know everyone in Schmitt’s office got in early today, flush with excitement. “The boss is gonna get him! We have that son-of-a-b Jack Smith right where we want him!”

MDS never should have been hired. A lost season in a league that wasted the post-World Cup momentum and failed to capitalize on the excitement when Lionel Messi signed in Miami. I will always love LAFC. But it’s hard buy tix when the league doesn’t do a good enough job of pretending to care.

the Court “cannot expect the public to have faith in our judicial system if, without clear explanation, we are consistently greenlighting harmful acts” i continue to think putting KBJ on the Court may be Biden's best decision, no other justice is doin it like her www.nytimes.com/2026/09/24/u...

To be clear Ms. Mecklenburg, the real harm to your reputation is not that you engaged in gross prosecutorial misconduct. It’s that you engaged in gross prosecutorial misconduct *while trying to imprison people for protesting literal death squads.* Fuck all the way off.

By the time this merger ruins HBO, destroys WB, gets 5,000 people fired, moves production overseas, and guts the quality of the movies the new studio makes, most people will have forgotten how fast the AGs caved and how little they got in this deal. Writers will not.

Trump is going to get asked about "Al Qaeda Cheese." I guarantee it. And he's going to say something like "it's something we're looking very strongly into and we'll have an answer in about two weeks. But they can't do that. They can't do it, and we're looking very strongly into it."

I’m yelling into the void here, but this monarchism runs counter to the essential idea of America. It is explicitly anti-American behavior and the fact that MAGA still supports this guy shows they have no real appreciation, or even an idea, of what this country is.

@splitzoneduo.com’s Richard Johnson correctly places Arch Manning laughing at the violent AI slop video of Holly Rowe in the context of the similarly violent Good Good ad. There’s a larger, more disturbing context as well. See this, from @ejdickson.bsky.social www.wired.com/story/burner...

The GOP operative class is younger, better educated, and more urban than the national average which means their intuitions pull the party to the center.
The Dem operative class is also younger, better educated, and more urban but that means their biases pull Dems off-center.
