Saw an author the other day and wanted to tell her that I had swatted a bug with one of her books just that week and found the whole thing very serendipitous but decided against as that might scan as backhanded.

Packing the courts is cool but I’m increasingly convinced we should be actively, vocally working towards a second constitutional convention at basically every point on the institutional/outside-of-institutions spectrum of political activity

there's something about the relatively desaturated color palate, the focus on water and sky (and deemphasis on the actual city or human beings), and the plain font names plus period at the top of these Dutch East India Co. trading post paintings that just screams "EVIL DEEDS DONE HERE" to me

It is the summer of 2016. I am listening to Exmilitary by Death Grips on SoundCloud. I am vastly overestimating my abilities. The protests are beginning, and it feels like the cracks are starting to show in a way that will inevitably lead to change. It’s is the summer of 2026…

rose tint aside, it is sort of nuts how there was a vibe 2013-15 of a new potential, then, following the total disintegration of reality in 2016-20, there WAS something actually resembling Keynesianism from 2020-22, and now we're just back in hell with even less infrastructure and investment - pray!

I’m trying to find a normal spot to host/post an increasingly messy essay I’ve been working on in my time away from school and I don’t really know where people like to read things. I hate Substack. I hate Medium. Are there any third options? Especially for something with lots of hyperlinks/media?

it’s great when there’s a disaffected trans bartender because you can use them as a pretty effective proxy for ascertaining what type of queer person makes for an annoying customer and consider yourself accordingly (and then work them into a buyback mood, usually for free Fernet and Wild Turkey)

interesting rationale from a prospective juror in the Elon Musk Twitter stock manipulation case
Judge Breyer: Okay. Thank you very much. Juror 96, I think that you also have strong views. Could you set them aside?

Juror 96: I believe that in a criminal trial, I would feel morally obligated to convict. However, in a civil trial, I feel I can set those views aside.

Judge Breyer: That’s interesting.

Juror 96: I’m happy to expand.

Judge Breyer: Sure.

Juror 96: I believe it would be to the benefit of the human race were Mr. Musk to be sent to prison. However, I don’t believe a loss of several hundreds of millions of dollars in a civil trial would be even a drop in the bucket to his wealth, so it doesn’t really matter. Therefore, I would be able to consider the facts.

I don't think I've ever seen a lawyer getting dressed down like this. DOJ counsel is squirming as the judge basically calls him a liar.

Like most diarists we tend to see the poster turning to the device repeatedly during difficult periods, resulting in a skewed depiction of their life and sense of humor. Only a glimpse of the person the poster considers or wants themselves to be.

Hi! Sorry! Just circling back to this. I would love to be having weirder sex actually, but I have to look at PDFs, maps, and feeds 16 hours a day to accomplish nothing of particular value. Please let me know if you would be interested in my thoughts on the Renminbi as a reserve currency. Best,
