A gorgeous story and the incarnation about what so many of us love about this team and its fans. It’s everything that’s great about the Bay in one loud, passionate, joyful space

SFMoMA just did this on the (already middling) recent Matisse exhibit — “video” of Paris in 1906 at the time of the Salon d’automne— and people were exclaiming how amazing because they thought it was real. Super disappointing.

DOJ, where everyone is Lowly Worm

Go VALKS!!

I am entirely serious when I say that this should be seen as a moderate position. It specifically and surgically dismantles institutions that did not exist pre-9/11 and assigns their functions much as they were assigned pre-9/11.

They do not move

not being transphobic gets you to the wnba finals it turns out

Nakase: “This job for me, I love it. Sometimes I love it too much to a point where I overwork, and so I just want to make sure I'm being smart. So for all you guys too, I know you guys work extremely hard. Just make sure you guys take care of yourself.”

Every federal law clerk dreamed of drafting an order like this to the worst counsel but this one actually sees the light of day!

Christening a baby is nothing like christening a ship. I know that now. Once again I can only apologise.

Ask yourself why a CEO who can call the president on the phone needs to write a pleading open letter like he is a daycare provider who needs money for markers?

This is great!

The fun thing about living under a common law legal system is having to explain to people that we don’t have set laws that you just look up, we just have an overarching series of contradictory narrative fallacies that are all semi-load bearing.

I hate this kind of thing, because just beneath its surface is a smug piety that treats "politics" as nothing but mess and rancor rather than as something with a direct connection to people's lives, and argues for being "above politics" as a kind of virtue. It's so dishonest. Anyway, good morning.

The story here is just Dolly incarnate

We’re years into these stories. If you really believe it saves you time, factor in the time to quote and cite check every piece of output. Maybe it does save time and then you actually understand the material the client pays you to understand.

Yay Margaret!!

Anyway, your problem isn‘t finding the time to take notes. The problem is that taking notes is thinking and thinking has to be done by someone. women have been doing a lot of metacognition that looks like a task when it’s really thinking.
