At what point do we think this is willful behavior? Deliberately omitting links to court decisions so less curious readers are unwittingly saddled with the writers’ (often poor or misleading) summary of the decision, in an effort to preserve how long a reader stays on the ad-laden site.
Sorry to be a broken record but it's nuts to me that the New York Times would write an entire article summarizing a court ruling and refuse to provide a link to said ruling. This is a disservice to readers. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/n...

Watching the National Dog Show and it’s life imitating “Best In Show” art/commentary: I STG the announcer just said, in reference to an Old English Sheepdog, a very large floofy-haired shaggy dog: “if the judge digs through all that hair and only find one eye, he’s on the wrong end of the dog.”

This is, of course, a fascinating thread from Kate asking why Google is effectively cannibalizing its own market for both digital ads on third party properties and search ads, by effectively taking away the incentive to click through to third party sites. I have a theory as to why they're doing it.
So this ad revenue metric is indicative of such a fascinating and weird set of business decisions by Google to inexplicably kill of SEO-- and I honestly don't get how they think this is going to pay off for them in the long run.

As if us in #teenylaw don't have enough to worry about, for the second time in as many weeks our friends at the USPS mangled a big check a client mailed to me in payment of an invoice. What was left of the check came in a plastic envelope with a standard apology form. Crazy.

Yet another consequence of our post 9/11 military engagements in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. Not just militarization of local police and the creation of an ICE mercenary force now trampling due process, but even militarization of mall cops steeped in paranoia about antifa.
Years before Trump flooded US cities with federal forces, in Minneapolis, former soldiers were deployed on questionable grounds—using tactics from wars abroad—to the city’s floundering business district.

This was the result.

I see the “technically it’s ephebophelia” crowd is out today, so just a reminder that A) this is NOT a case where technically correct is the best kind of correct and B) the minute you say this, the gods dump you in the “irredeemable creeper” basket and wash their hands thoroughly after touching you.

MAHA will flame out eventually because all of its proponents will wind up dying of measles or refusing tried and true medicine for easily curable conditions or just main lining beef tallow.
JD Vance calls ibuprofen "useless medication" and implies it's not "necessary, safe and effective."
