- Researching some of opposing counsel's other cases today and I came across an oral argument transcript from August where he repeatedly called his OC "Ms. Ding-a-Ling", called her a "little coccalah" and told her she had an "ugly hairdo" and should get a different one. Yes, all on the record
- A new brief in the birthright citizenship case by Gerard Magliocca. This one points out the regulation of Roma people in England and the United States. It is a thin amicus brief, as it focuses on a narrow subject, but accurate. So, I don't have much to say. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/25...
- (As an aside, sort of jarring to see a brief use that word, rather than Roma. I’m not well-versed in the relevant politics, eg whether theres been an effort to reclaim the other word, etc., so I could be missing something….)
- There is a FN that says Roma is the modern term, but he’s using the other one for consistency between the brief and statements made by the 14A’s framers. I think it’s an attempt to focus on what the architects of the 14A said without causing confusion (or maybe an adverse reaction from justices).
- using the ecoflow backup battery i bought for the storms the last month and now using it as the failover for my network UPS and we had a 30 minute power outage yesterday and my home network stayed up with no packet loss yippee!!!!!
- An exchange from CA5 oral arguments today: Lawyer: Okay. I feel awkward walking away with some time, but I'm not going to waste your time. Court: We feel grateful when you walk away. Lawyer: I should have done it a little earlier. Court: It's a sign of assurance. Thank you.

- Chotiner: Tell me what you found interesting about these vampires. Documentarian: Well, it's just -- the group dynamics, I guess. Chotiner: I can see that. I can see finding Nandor, Laszlo and Nadia entertaining. Documentarian: Exactly. Chotiner: So. How many people did you watch them murder?

- read online that someone set-up a premium rate phone number where callers get charged $3.99/ min. then they posted flyers in their neighborhood that said "call this number to report illegal aliens," but the number just puts them on hold with music. so far, they've made $17,000

- my increasingly curmudgeonly take is that we all, in fact, have responsibilities. politics isn't an arena for self-actualization. it's an arena for public service. this is as true of voters as it is of politicians.

- May as well dive right in. Did you know that dogs in ancient Mesopotamia also refused to drop the ball? According to a Sumerian proverb, “The dog understands ‘Take it!’ It does not understand ‘Put it down!’” Source: cdli.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/artifacts/34...
