Hey, so, I don’t do civil litigation, is it generally considered good when the judge does this?

![Case 1:24-CV-09429-KPF Document 227 Filed 02/05/26 Page 2 of 33
Feldman [wals not excused from this professional obligation [of verifying that the cases he submitted to the Court were valid] by dint of using emerging
technology." (Dkt. #169 at 4).
Mr. Feldman persisted. A few days prior to the Court's hearing on the
Order to Show Cause, Mr. Feldman submitted a proposed reply brief in further support of Affable's motion to dismiss. Once again, his brief contained false citations. And at the August 22, 2025 hearing, Mr. Feldman was unable to respond directly to, much less answer, the Court's questioning about his
submissions.
Mr. Feldman has not, and apparently cannot, learn from his mistakes.
And while the Court does not oppose the use of Al to assist in legal research
and writing, it must take a stand where, as here, counsel repeatedly files
submissions with false citations because counsel refuses to verify those
submissions. This Court can do no more. For the reasons that follow, the
Court sanctions Mr. Feldman pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11
and the Court's inherent powers by striking Affable's submissions and entering
default judgment against it.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ssxnmhdtz6le6nxu7jfhglz6/bafkreigeefuabd636ruucelhxav3v3p43dezhotggrwlgjgsev2z2ggev4@jpeg)

Thats why when someone says "xxx was bad but without it we wouldn't have yyy", I always encourage them to think of the opportunity cost, to imagine the potential futures lost rather than settle into justifications for suboptimal pasts.

It's not just the women and girls we know of. It's all their future work, and everything they could have been, and how we build structures that shelter their abusers. It's how a man's future has always been worth more than my past, present, and future combined.

"We would have lost so much if we'd driven him away" is the justification.
But we lost all those girls. We lost the women they would have become. We lost the work they would have done. Why was his future work so much more valuable than theirs?

And when people tried to make this part of the conversation, they were told "don't speak ill of the dead" and "we're walking on foundations he built, give the man his grace."
But all those girls--dozens, based on confirmed accounts, maybe hundreds, based on the time scale at play--didn't come back.

Isaac Asimov was a founder of modern science fiction. His work and ideas inform almost everything.
He was also a serial sexual harasser, something confirmed by multiple first-person accountings from members of East Coast fandom.

This is only related in a sideways manner, but: the story of any small slice of humanity is the story of humanity, just boiled down and distilled. So:
In 2020, we had a lot of conversations about harassment at SF/F conventions, and Isaac Asimov came up several times.

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

Extrapolating in another direction: I also often think of just how much human potential has been lost because of systemic racism, classism and imperialism. All the joy, innovation, art and more that we didn’t get - the opportunity cost of systems where one or a few men (its usually men) benefit.

Local election officials need to have legal documents pre-drafted to try to prevent this:
Here's @rickhasen.bsky.social detailing the scenario in which Trump uses search warrant to seize ballot boxes in a contested 2026 locale. This is more worrisome than ICE at the polls. Hasen also suggests ways to act against this now.
