Oh, what? Popehat and other legal commentators are misrepresenting the basic facts of a situation in a way that flatters the right wing interpretation? This has never happened before how will I update my prior beliefs on the noble and impartial popehat's legal opinions.

What are the all time tedious online arguments:
Fahrenheit v Celsius
Beatles or Stones
East Coast v West Coast Hip Hop

Fahrenheit vs Celsius is truly one of the most tedious online argument. The American insistence that it is 'natural'. All scales are man made, be serious. Tennis counts in 15/30/40/45 and no one bats an eye five minutes after having been explained it.
This makes sense I am always having to freeze my ammonium chloride brine

This piece is so much better than the pull-quote. It’s a beautiful profile of a fascinating brave strong woman and I urge you to read it.

She scandalised the art world in the 1990s with her unmade bed, partied hard in the 2000s – then a brush with death turned the artist’s life upside down. Now she’s as frank as ever

this person is probably perfectly nice and agreeable but if they're not lying, they know that they're wrong, because they disabled QTs and replies. Their brain recoils that this can't be the answer (for whatever other reasons) but they can't work through what the other options it must be.

I realize that we're omnishambles rn but the Brits realize that we can observe how Reform and Badenoch act and how pliant and obsequious their vaunted press is to them, right?
I am trying to imagine a law officer in front of the Justice Committee responding to questions about failure to investigate sex trafficking and child sexual abuse by saying “What about the FTSE? We should all talk about that” and I am delighted and relieved to say I simply cannot imagine it.

Oh sure it's ancient excel but look at them hard coding variables in the clay. Amateurs.
The spreadsheet on this clay tablet, which is almost 4,000 years old, is organised into columns for furrowed area, grain produced, land not sown, and the field’s name.
The first field is called “Of the soldiers who stood in for their fathers”.
It’s ancient Excel, but I find that incredibly moving

Good to see that Simon learned the most important lesson from Barbara Lee: make sure your constituents know you did stuff for them.

My primary problem with a lot of more serious literary fiction isn’t that it isn’t well written or compelling it’s just that a lot of it is about “I’m articulate and depressed” and I kind of want like, something to happen, I guess. I suppose I’m something of a philistine in that way.

When Jerry Garcia sings "I ran down to the levee But the devil caught me there He took my twenty dollar bill lAnd it vanished in the air" on 1970's Friend of the Devil, that would be $171.46 in 2026 dollars.

Disqualifying to pretend that a PE exit five years ago is the proximate cause to incredibly common and widespread issues across the retail space.
Amazing a whole story about Eddie Bauer filing for bankruptcy can leave out the fact that it was owned by private equity from 2009 to 2021 www.nytimes.com/2026/02/10/b...

It's probably bad for all sorts of reasons but it's hard not to be a little nostalgic about the "I'm in a big city now, mfers. A cage of steel and glass fuck yeah." a view like this creates.

Look, I'm just a humble desk analyst but there are two facts I know about the current admin:
a) they want 401ks to be able to invest in private assets
b) they want to limit the amount that retail investors can litigate against malfeasance from asset managers
I don't mind privates but... What?
