Sorry to vaguebook but holy shit my part made it onto the record, das dope.

Aw. Thoughts and prayers. If only everyone had told you. www.rawstory.com/amp/trump-bo...

Pete Hegseth is going to prison and he knows it.

I just took an immense gamble with my career. I’m not comfortable with it, but I have to make a change because the status quo is killing me. Will it work? Will it fail send me back to the start? I don’t know. But I had to. Because the status quo was killing me.

I imagine the city's entire response will be "But see Printz v. United States, 521 U.S. 898 (1997)." www.justice.gov/opa/media/14...

Happy evening.

It’s always a dude. The shooter, I mean. And today is no exception.

Turns out that you *can't* get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/u...

I’m upstate. I went to karaoke and sang Vienna.

"I'm not as attractive as Sydney Sweeney and I'm mad as hell about that: A memoir."

Home!

Anyway you slice it, flying is horrid.

They all think, she’s just a bitty thing with a weak drive. And that’s true. So you’d better win on your drive; if you don’t I’m taking you apart on the fairway.

I’m less than fifty miles from Miku Kobato right now.

This is why they didn’t want him back: He is a witness.

Now, am I as hot as Jenna Ortega? Fuck no. But I’m cute enough.

I want to reiterate that I’m available as soon as Sabrina wants to do that lesbian phase.

I was able to play some guitar tonight for the first time in several weeks. Prednisone bad, guitar good, vodka good too.

It turns out he didn't announce a ceasefire, he declared one. As always, he just runs his mouth without concern for whether anything exiting it is true.

Idiots who during Obama's two terms *literally never shut up* about how he was a flagrant and routine abuser of the Constitution are today holding him up as the standard of scrupulously Constitutional behavior against which Trump's airstrikes should be judged. Real talk: Shut. The. Fuck. Up.

The last fifteen minutes of the week are the longest.

Also, who the fuck schedules meetings at 0730. 🙄

If I were the boss, I would have one rule. “You’re either on the meeting or you’re not.” You're not in the meeting if you're reading your phone; you're not in the meeting if you're whispering to someone else; you're not in the meeting if you're multitasking. Be in the meeting, or be elsewhere.

The CA9 livestream keeps glitching in a way that makes it look like Judge Sung is winking at me.

I shake my head when Trump sycophants whine about "unelected judges" shut him down. Shut the fuck up first because you're no happier when elected state-court judges shut him down; disingenuous fucks. And shut the fuck up second, you can't pose as a Constitution hardliner AND oppose its structure.

I never thought the tigers would eat *my* face. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

If a faux military parade happens and nobody in the press covers it, did it actually happen? This is the question MSM should be asking itself right now. The REAL NEWS STORY is the massive national demonstrations going on RIGHT NOW in 2000 locations. #nokings #nokingsday

I hate that all this talk about Los Angeles requires that I clarify that technically I don’t live in L.A. but only adjacent to it, which really chaps my ass. I’m willing to move just to keep the talking point, TBH. Anyway, Trump’s lying, L.A. is fine.

So 53% support it. (As I've said before, "Not sure" is coward-speak for "I support the obviously scumbag thing that I don't dare say because it'll make me feel like a bad person.)

The sweetest words in English are, “I told you so.” This was a bromance not destined to last.

"While it is apparent that the Government seeks a stay to enable it to inflict maximum predecision damage, court-ordered stays exist to minimize—not maximize—harm to litigating parties." www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Common Sense......👍

I don’t know how or when I turned into one of these people who plays golf on her iPad. I’ve always liked golf, but it’s expensive and time consuming. This seems like a compromise.

My pet peeve in reporting on the Supreme Court is framing inaction or passive implication as action. When the court denies cert, that is inaction; denial of cert is the norm. When the court affirms 4-4, that is passive implication. Neither should be reported the same as the court acting.

Judge Murphy, you are wrong: If “[t]he Department’s actions . . . are unquestionably violative of this court’s order," questions of criminal contempt *cannot* wait until another day. You must do something. Immediately.

Whatever early promise he may once have shown, James Ho should not be considered for promotion. His antics demonstrate a lack of the judgment requisite for the bench and he should resign. talkingpointsmemo.com/morning-memo...

Wow, even Josh Marshall now: "It is true that Democrats need to create room for candidates to depart from party orthodoxies in parts of the country dominated by Republicans." Slowly, they're getting it. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/fight...

The irony is that by repeatedly kicking the resolution can for nationwide injunctions down the road to 2025, the court has allowed events (namely the emergence of the once unthinkable, a maliciously non-compliant administration) to demonstrate why such injunctions must be available sometimes.

Yeah, no fucking shit, Chris. Because it isn't just you: When a bunch of interest groups all say "all party members must agree to our thing," the result is the party shrinks out of contention. time.com/7286163/insi...

"The longevity of the MAGA movement"? The "MAGA movement" dies with Trump. It will fracture back into its constituent parts. www.salon.com/2025/05/14/b...

Three hours of continuous meetings, from the moment I walked in the door. My social battery is done. Why do we allow people who like meetings to become managers?

there really is no alternative to tearing up CBP and ICE root and branch

Democrats need to be buying guns. In bulk. Loudly.
