Chicago lawyer, but the boring kind. Sports fan. Experiencing a social media relapse. Should be obvious, but nothing here is legal advice

I heard it was a chimneysweep. It's a fluedoneit

Dragon's Dogma 1 and 2 are both made-in-a-lab tailored to the things I *think* I want in a video game, and I did not like actually playing either of them.

Trump has done more to establish a unitary executive than all the judges or legal scholars in the world could ever do. And Trump has done more to discredit and expose the unitary executive theory as lawless authoritarianism than any judge or legal scholar could ever do.

New Axios piece on the return of student loan defaults goes to pains to make sure you know the situation isn't the fault of the Trump admin, and calls out Biden continuing forbearance efforts as a cause. Can't wait to find out who was president in 2020 when the program actually was put in place!

Wouldn't it be faster and more accurate to just say "make it easier to commit war crimes?" I'm not even being rhetorical here. Getting rid of the lawyers does not make you "less restricted by the laws." That's now how any of this works

A tremendous amount of modern conservatism is catering to the sentiment “I should be able to act like an asshole without anyone calling me an asshole”

Dudes, men, fellas, please step up and guide the young men near you. You are the only ones that have a decent chance of being heard, because you’re considered full people worth listening to. If another young fella says something that dehumanizes people, you gotta be the ones to say something

just to clarify, when I ask for research from someone smart, I’m not looking for the opinions of someone dumb

This is an under-appreciated reason to have a full time, professional state legislature. A gig that ties you up for 3 months every year and only pays $10,000 prevents you from having a full time job. Only rich people can afford to do that.

Same energy as Rodgers saying he was "immunized from COVID," but not meaning the vaccines...the "what happened at Sandy Hook" language leaves open that the real tragedy and loss of life was all a false flag or some such BS. Hopefully this is just a drunk publicist doing a bad job, but no trust here.

I want this to end up as Rodgers just so that the Jets can cement first place in the "Our QB Situation Is Forever Cursed" power rankings
