Here's more on what's happening and what it means: papersplease.org/wp/2025/10/1...
papersplease.org
CBP changes procedures for airline passengers with “X” passports – Papers, Please!
CBP regulations require would-be airline passengers to identify as “M” or F”. These regulations were never changed, even when CBP was accepting “X” gender markers.

Researching the history of blind mail laws, I came across this: 14 Stat. 597, 1866 c. 199 (39th), July 13, 1866, paying Sgt. (ret.) George W. Bush (N.Y. 90th reg., co. G) a pension of $8/mo for 2y tile.loc.gov/storage-serv... So George W. Bush actually did do military service. Or, well, one did.

@andrewtorrez.bsky.social @lizdye.bsky.social On Law & Chaos podcast 154, you said you hadn't heard of a pre-answer deposition. Not the same as Trump v Murdock's requested FRCP 32(a)(4)(C) depo, and can't be used on a non US resident, but in theory… there is FRCP 27, which is even pre *complaint*.

I made a BlueSky list of conlangers: bsky.app/profile/did:... Please LMK if there's anyone missing (including you), or if I should convert it (or some subpart) to a "starter pack" — it's not entirely clear to me what the difference between the two is, though AFAICT the list can be used as a "feed".

@robertmaguire.bsky.social Would you be interested in collaborating on using public FEC data to prove evasion of hard money contribution limits via structuring & shell corps? I have a couple actual examples from 2014, but never followed up on them — wanted to do it more rigourously to file a MUR.

This is a test of whether my BlueSky custom handle @s.ai works, after changing from @saizai.bsky.social, or displays "invalid handle". Because apparently my name always breaks things. 🤦
