My boomer take is that kids should be able to play in the street
The number of children injured or killed by cars while walking or riding a bike has fallen steadily since the 1970s, but CDC researcher note that this decline is not because streets are safer, but because fewer kids are out and about in the first place.
Kids need freedom. Dangerous roads make it hard to grant it.
Bigger cars, distracted drivers and worried parents mean fewer kids are roaming freely.

This ‘violently racist’ hacker claims to be the source of the New York Times’ Mamdani scoop

the alleged hacker says they've hit 3 universities. they have an ax to grind about the supposed favored status of racial minorities in American society. they also now have essentially acquired lists of people categorized by race www.theverge.com/analysis/703...
The Columbia hack is a much bigger deal than Mamdani’s college application
A politically-motivated hack on a politically-vulnerable school is flying under the radar

Pope Leo XIV loves hoops, especially Villanova hoops. He's also taken an interest in the "Nova Knicks."

And it's likely that he'll still follow his teams while he serves as the pope.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me & through me & when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

@audrelawdamercy.bsky.social this is an idea I'd hear someone propose about 6 drinks deeps as a 1L
DOJ just argued in the MSPB/NLRB case that they have a strong likelihood of success because 'if we have a 40% chance of success on two separate issues, that combines to a 65% chance of success on the merits.' What an absurd argument.

I know we're several crazy presidential things past this, but qualifying relief money to LA county on crazy republican nonsense is almost certainly in violation of the anti-commandeering doctrine.

another piece i'm proud of:

it's about Kenner and Star Wars and Jurassic Park and Alien, about the MCU and The Lego Movie, about how kids and toymakers play with "canon" - and about making stuff up.

if you love revisiting your childhood with new insight, you might just recognize some of these toys
