Thus, anti-vaxxers. Conspiracy theorists. Vibes replacing consensus reality. If there's a firehose of information, the average person cannot devote the mental resources needed to determine what's real and what isn't, so they'll just pick whichever reality feels best to them. Bad actors can provide.

It's fun when I get to use, essentially, purely abstract legal concepts to shift millions of dollars from gigantic construction conglomerates to their workers. Like, I genuinely love my job when I can do that.

I'm going to toot my own horn: I just won a motion to dismiss, after an 18 month wait, in one of my pet project cases. I've mentioned before that, while I practice every facet of wage and hour law, my particular specialty is public contracting. Cases like this are specifically what I mean. 1/x

🤬My anger cannot be expressed in words that the human ear would allow itself to be open to.
It should be a violation of attorney ethics rules to represent the govt against an unrepresented minor. Make it so the govt attorneys and immigration judges aren't allowed to be in the process.
There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.

Giving out death in punishment by flawed humans results in flawed results. The only way not to make these errors is take away the temptation.
Truly bonkers stats that should give us pause
An astonishing 80 percent of the Louisiana's death sentences between 1976 and 2015 were later reversed.
A judge recently vacated the conviction of Chris Duncan, who had been on the state's death row for decades.

He’s Been On Louisiana’s Death Row for Decades. A Judge Just Vacated His Conviction.
Chris Duncan’s longtime claims of innocence were boosted by the discrediting of bite mark analysis, and by recent reforms now under threat from the state’s Republican leadership.

The failed assassination attempt on the Jewish Democratic Governor got almost as little press as the successful assassination of the female Democratic Representative.
The media does not want to do anything that could remind people how shitty trump and the GOP are.

It still just amazes me to no end how even supposedly "educated" people just don't understand how these tariffs work. The "countries" aren't paying us anything in tariffs, we, the consumers in the United States are paying these tariffs. Trump can't tax a foreign country. WE PAY THE TARIFFS!!!!

Multiple times this year I’ve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans don’t understand how bad things are going to get.

Don't let normalcy bias or the belief that somewhere there is an adult in the room that will prevent the dumbest shit from happening. An idiot is in charge, surrounded by FOX News pundits that are just as dumb. And they dictate policy now. Plan accordingly.

Perhaps it’s time to up the blame on Schumer but those careless, gullible, irresponsible imbeciles that did not vote when the choice was between a rotting scrotum dipped in Cheeto dust and Kamala Harris are beneath contempt.

I appreciate it's cliche and pointless to note this, but I don't think that six months into her term a hypothetical President Kamala Harris would be suing MSNBC, Bill Gates and The Guardian for reporting on her close personal friendship with a paedophile.

So even when a company has no intention of doing monstrous things with your content, you tend to get licenses that let them do so if they want - not out of malice, but out of CYA and resource-management.
