Big "yes" to this, which I sketched in my last book. Pleonexia (insatiable greed) is relentless for its victims. The Book of Ecclesiastes offer a lovely metaphor for this -- "chasing the wind" (trying to grasp something that can never be attained).

Plato argued in the Republic that the 'tyrant,' or someone with unlimited wealth and power, would live the worst possible life because his soul would be devoured by lawless, unlimited desires that could never be sated. I think we've gotten confirmation of this from more cases than Trump lately

Julian Sanchez @normative.bsky.social · 3h

I always thought Plato was pretty pollyannaish on this point, but this is decent evidence for the view that a man of bad character will therefore be unhappy even with every external trapping of success and good fortune.

Anthony is referring to the insta "experts" on birthright citizenship that have popped up to create/backfill a "literature" to support Trump's birthright stripping. I too spent 2 years reading b/f putting pen to paper on my colonial chapter. This is why my book took 16 years. Research takes time.

I'm just over here toiling away on 17th and 18th-century legal history unmoored to any contemporary issue, and it took me two years before I even started putting pen to paper.

Discovering a brand-new understanding of 600 years+ of legal history and having a written paper in weeks is... curious.

Maybe just me but to me it's incredibly obvious what these "birthright deniers" are up to. It's not an academic project, it's a political one, attempting to provide cover for conservative jurists who are now being asked to rule on this very question, and need a fig leaf of justification.

Have limited macadamia nuts. So I make the snowball cookies or chocolate candied orange peel biscotti with them?

The Wisconsin component of the analysis here is revealing. Evidence is consistent with DOGE strategically delaying contract terminations in WI until after the 2025 state Supreme Court elections to mitigate electoral risk.

My son bought me what I thought was a drill. Turned out to be a toblerone gaffer-taped to a bottle of Bailey’s.

No woman I know in academia would be surprised by this, but its good to see it documented like this, I guess.

Experimental evidence that students are more likely to contest grades when they are delivered by an evaluator with a female-sounding name.

"These findings suggest that women in evaluative positions face disproportionate resistance when delivering negative assessments."

‘We Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet’—Trump’s Mass Deportations Will Only Grow From Here

Militias and far-right extremists believed they would be central to Trump’s mass deportation plans. Instead he militarized law enforcement agencies.

Took these on the subway fully baked from Brooklyn to Manhattan, to the Bronx. Then took me 3 minutes to set it all up, thus staying out of the kitchen and out of the way of the host. These are fast with a tube of Pillsbury crescent rolls! Recipe: www.extrapetite.com/2020/07/shor...

@pollsandvotes.bsky.social I was at a dinner party last night in the Bronx and ran into Jeff Cohen who said he went to grad school with you if I remember correctly. Happy holidays!

Anyway. They spent the last decade telling us STEM degrees were the future and the Humanities were worthless then they spent hundreds of billions of dollars to build a glitchy Humanities robot.

NYT provides no evidence here, probably because the claim is flatly untrue. See eg recent Pew data, or many posts on the subject from @gelliottmorris.com this year
