Might be a fun discussion of the extent to which modern American evangelical Christianity is borderline Arian…

At some point, triremes in a dead sprint run into the floating debris. Or have to slow down to avoid it - in which case they stay under fire longer

David Morehous @dmorehous.bsky.social · 22h
All choices require some or all of the triremes to chase our sotl, and chances are good that they can’t sustain the sprint over a longer distance. Wind and tide matter A LOT, but a heavier sea doesn’t benefit the triremes

Sure - but as soon as the triremes are visible, the SOTL starts moving (if not already under way). The three possible tactics are (1) sail away; (2) sail toward one end of the line of triremes, or (3) “never mind tactics, always go straight at ‘em” (Jno. Aubrey, attr. H. Nelson)

That assumes they’ve already accelerated to that 40-knot top speed when they come within the SOTL’s outermost firing rant

Okay, I have a secret theory that “the Constitution was made to be read by lawyers versed in the common law, and so they *assumed* it would be interpreted” is the actual answer to the “problem” that originalism also claims to be addressing

My man made an argument to a Court of Appeals in these United States that’s basically a joke that absolutely every 1L makes during the same week of law school.

…which is how we ended up in the same law school class. On basically the same set of facts I *didn’t*, and for at least our 1L and 2L years she had her shit together a lot better than I did

David Morehous @dmorehous.bsky.social · 16/09/2026
One of my law school classmates was a year ahead of me at the same undergrad university. In law school we were both in joint-degree programs that started the summer before the rest of the 1Ls. She’d started straight out of undergrad, went to the school after 2 weeks or so, and asked for a deferment

David Morehous @dmorehous.bsky.social · 16/09/2026
All the advice has been pretty good, but one from experience (mine and others’): sometimes the school will let you take a 1-year lap - you just re-start your 1L year next fall. That can be a useful re-set if you’re having mental health concerns, or if you started law school too soon after undergrad

I remember seeing the movie in the theater and making fun of this scene. I will now readily, happily, full-throatedly say that teenage Phil was a jerk and he should shut the hell up. This scene is magnificent, and the music is *perfect*. Everything here tells exactly the story it needs to.

This is the most beautiful ship reveal in the history of sci-fi. The guys who designed this scene loved The Great Bird of the Galaxy, and it shows. And the face acting that Doohan and Shatner do? Makes the scene.

I’m sorry for your loss. We had to let Fester go in February, so there will be cats to welcome your Boi to Chonky Valhalla

They are older than they ever have been. For reasons, I was with my dad to get his signature notarized, and out of the corner of my eye I watched him practice it. Twice.

Mad dogs and Tennesseans
Man in a red shirt with white lettering taking a selfie of himself and his dog. They’re sitting on a very dried-out suburban lawn. (You can see the neighbors’ trees and a house in the background.) The dog is small (corgi-dachshund mix), and he has his mouth open to pant. He is looking at the man. They are both very hot.Screenshot of a current weather report for Farragut, Tennessee. It’s 97 degrees Fahrenheit, and there’s are heat advisories in effect today and tomorrow.
