I’ve seen this a few times, where a court will announce a new legal standard or rule or something, but then be like, “well, because the defendant failed to raise an issue relevant to this new standard we’re not going to humor her claim.” Like, what’s up with that?
I often feel like I don’t relate to white people, or anyone for that matter. But, listening to Ice of Boston by the Dismemberment Plan, I think, “that could be me.”

Smalter once asked me before an exam whether I had taken a dump. At the time I thought it was because we were out of toilet paper and he wanted me to go get more, but now I wonder if maybe he was sharing with me his secret to success.

I’m pretty sure people arguing against random drug testing in schools aren’t griping about having to be monitored while they pee, but I suppose you have to cover all bases as a judge.
Hehe, that’s pretty funny. Few people are afforded the opportunity to quit their job to get their personal life in order. For us normal folk, we have to do all of this at the same time. Its like being rich and famous also makes you sad and pathetic.
Dave Sitek and I are working on a mixtape together. That’s all we’re saying for now, but if everything we have in mind comes together, I can promise three things:

“I make no finding about the subjective good faith of the SLC members, both of whom are distinguished academics at one of this nation’s most prestigious institutions of higher learning.” - Delaware Vice Chancellor Strine
This statement seems to suggest that being a distinguished academic at a prestigious institution carries with it a presumption of subjective good faith and it comes from a pretty influential judge. Sometimes I think that people who are intensely focused on their profession pour all of their energy into it to redeem themselves of their otherwise flawed social selves. This would flip that presumption, particularly where the good faith in question, as in this case, is due to the “thickness’ of the social and institutional connections.”
