This frontispiece in my book just made me laugh a lot. Is this Buddhist reincarnation, or some other form of afterlife?

The issue at stake in 1686 was whether the king was bound by the law. How are we back here again?

Reed is brilliant at this role. What was needed after the froth of the Brexit litigation was a grey man, of impeccable judgement. (He is much less grey than the impression he creates). He is also, imo, the best judge on the court, and has been from the day of his appointment. /1

Found this old York sign again which apparently bans cycling while allowing you to injure young and old alike by way of recompense. The good management of municipal facilities is all about give and take.

Write every day for 1 hour. If you miss a writing day add 1 hour to the next. It’s incredible! Tomorrow I’m writing for 7 years.

This one qualifies in all three ways for me. Enjoy it for yourself at (1993) 13 Oxford Journal of Legal Studies 18. (Unless like me you are an advocate of - even modest - limits on legislative power, in which case it will haunt you. Forever.)

November 12, 1973 --- The day Philosophy & Public Affairs started treating Rawls like Jesus.

A letter on Philosophy & Public Affairs letterhead that reads:

November 12, 1973

Professor Robert Nozick
Department of Philosophy
Emerson Hall
Harvard University
Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138

Dear Professor Nozick,

I have been meaning to send you a note ever since you did not telephone the second time last week just to say that I decided after all to drop the offending post-apostrophes from the possessive of Rawls. This is, as I told you, according to the Chicago Manual of Style an honor due only to Moses and Jesus, but with us aesthetic considerations won out. The decision puts us somewhat in a class by ourselves -- I note that in Brian Barry's new book he and Oxford Press write Rawls's -- but I don't mind being different. I trust that you will not.

sincerely，
Margot Cutter

I can assure you that this is the genuine SpinningHugo account. Would a bot express such deep hatred for the UKSC's carpeting and decor?

I wonder how the academic labour market has adapted to the collapse of the railway system. When I was doing it full time a lot of people were commuting long distances, maybe staying overnight, and then back. How is that possible now when you have to turn up for 300 students at 11am no messing?
