True for each of John Roberts and the author of this fiction.

Thanks much. I'm not aware of what every niche YouTuber has said.

Sorry, I meant: I have seen exactly zero people say that Biden is too old, just like Feinstein. I saw people saying that about her, and I see people saying it about Biden (although interestingly never about Trump, who is the same age). I just don’t ever see people say the two things together.

That’s why I tried to phrase my initial point in a way that didn’t suggest I think you’re wrong. Apologies if it came across differently.

I think it’s a very fair point to connect, and ties into the whole approach that people earn “their turn” and once it’s their turn they get to stay as long as they want. Too much of US politics is organized around sinecures.

I am terminally online and have seen exactly zero people say this about Feinstein. The RBG thing I’ve seen a lot (and agree she should have stepped down and let Obama replace her).

Literally no one connects these two things except you, so let’s maybe use a different definition of “fresh in people’s minds”.

“It is not far-fetched to imagine that Roberts was mourning the decisive end of his vision of presiding over an institution seen as operating above the partisan fray.” Actually, in light of his recent votes and opinions, it is entirely far-fetched to believe that.

Absolutely the opposite. I worked with some of the stupidest motherfuckers you can imagine. The only stupider people were the ones who funded them; the founders were the most gullible idiots on the planet.

I was never going to buy one. I mean, I’m exactly the demo, I’ve driven EVs for 5 years, but: no. Every shitty decision the company has made traces back to an aspect of his personality so strongly that I figure if he makes that many bad decisions and is CEO, the cars are doomed.

If my initial skeet doesn’t make that obvious, I don’t actually think this is true, but it’s stupid enough that I believe it could be. I mean, replacing Biden is a terrible idea, but people I like On Here are talking about it like it’s not. So professional bad-idea havers must be running wild.

I honestly wonder if they thought they were doing this: we like Trump but not the way he’s talking about arresting Biden; we need to make that impossible while he does everything else we (are paid to) authorize; also, what Trump did might be illegal but wasn’t that big a deal.

A thing that was only possible in a zero interest debt world. So he knows his marching orders. Same reason they want Trump back.

One and the same. He probably would make some serious money from the puts the firm has no doubt acquired on that outcome.

Right? If there’s anything we should know from Trump, it’s that we don’t “need a businessman”. I think anyone saying this likes him because he can write checks, ie hire them.

Was this an “official act”? If done to remove benefits from poor people: “yes, in keeping with the Founders’ vision for the office”. If increases the chance for non-Republicans to win a future election: “no, not in keeping…” Just look at Clarence Thomas’s opinions and how much he just makes shit up.

Presumptively, but this could be the scenario by which they find a way back. They’d okay it for Trump but not for Biden, for example. It’s all Calvinball now. They’ll like it if they like the outcome but if they don’t then it’s not okay.

Max is saying better than I do a similar point to one I often make: that lawyers are professionally the living embodiment of Lawful Neutral. All our training is to uphold the system and its rules. Individual human lawyers come in all flavors, but our professional spot on the alignment chart is here.

I have no NDA with Pokémon. (That sentence should strike fear into their hearts, because of what I was in the room for.) The Pikachu thing started along with the anime; it was Pikachu’s unexpected popularity from the anime that made everything change.

Don’t forget: a Supreme Court that purports to be guided by what the people who wrote the Constitution said. People who, if they had meant for this, could have written it down, oh, I don’t know, somewhere.
