Out of date anatomically in terms of what we know about dinosaurs now, but Wayne Barlowe’s paleoart was incredible to me as a kid, it spurred my imagination like nothing else. The colors are so striking on each of these pieces, they hold such a primal mood.

SCOTUS effectively OK’ed third-country removals as the Trump admin is using them on the shadow docket, staying lower court orders reining them in. Further, the specific questions raised here — about refoulement — have come up before, like in this case: www.lawdork.com/p/ghana-refo...
NYT: Trump secretly deported 9 migrants despite court orders to not remove them to their home nations. So, he sent them to prison in Cameroon: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/14/w...

INBOX: Rep. Thomas Massie, who has enraged Trump for his insistence on blocking tariffs and releasing the Epstein files according to the law, just issued what is widely known among Chinese dissidents as "a declaration of no suicidal intent" (不自殺聲明), a sign of extreme distress.

Dara Lind talked about this a week or two ago on her podcast - there literally aren't enough DOJ lawyers to handle the workload, so many of these habeas cases are simply going unprocessed. Thus, they just sit in detention indefinitely. It's so fucked up.
The Trump administration's detention policy has produced an absolute avalanche of lawsuits from immigrants saying they were jailed illegally.

There have been more than 20,000 habeas suits since he took office, double the number that were filed in decade before.

Used “surfeit” in conversation then subtly looked it up to make sure it means what I thought.

The risk of looking like a fool was exhilarating.

Note to self: Stay away from casinos.

Just sayin’ that I’ve had some really weird interviews in this cycle of job hunting. I’ve already withdrawn my application from 3 studios while mid-process.

There’s not too many jobs, and a whole lot of the ones that exist are WEIRD.
