“One viewpoint of a video doesn’t often always tell the whole story. The angles can make a difference, and not hearing often in the video, so that the complexity...”

“I averted the eyes of the waiter as he set my plate of eggs down in front of me.”

Really? What, do you not have an abuela or something?

“What happens if you become pregnant?”

“Henry is so smug about his charade, it’s like he thinks he’s literally the smartest person in the world.”

Thank you, it’s always good to have this pointed out. There seems to be a lot of misinformation out there as to who the Constitution protects, and articles saying things like “he became a U.S. citizen in 2011, meaning he is entitled to all the same civil rights and liberties as Colin Kaepernick or Chelsea Clinton or…

I don’t really see how the right would apply even if it existed, though. This isn’t a situation like the NASA case, where the government employer seeks personal information from outside the workplace; rather, the question is whether the state can disseminate a public record of the police officer’s actions on the job.…

It looks like he’s asking for a prejudgment attachment (meaning he wants the court to give him a security interest in assets, or seize the assets, to prevent the defendant from transferring them), so he has to name the property he wants to attach. He likely has to prove that there is a risk of irreparable harm if the…

It’s always good to have someone to behead when the people get angry. And in between beheadings, the royals serve as a nice symbol of leadership that doesn’t tarnish because it never has to get involved in the dirty realities of actual governance. It’s like the function third party candidates serve over here; in the…

She tried putting the plane in front of her, but the crowd had trouble seeing her through the plane.

That’s a fair point. Very few policy decisions are without consequences for someone. But it generally makes more sense, from a value-maximizing perspective, to go with the plan that increases the overall economic pool, and then to focus on equalizing opportunity distribution within the pool, rather than take the…

“Meanwhile the candidate trying to limit labor competition via immigration to increase wages and keep jobs from being shipped overseas is a big fat racist in your eyes.

Take heed, children: if you want a cookie, don’t try and sneak your hand into the cookie jar; just stuff your entire head into the cookie jar and wear it for a helmet, and people will just keep giving you larger cookie jars to see what you look like bobbing around under them.

Yeah, it’s like our whole country is supposed to be some kind of millennial “safe space” where nobody is unfairly discriminated against or economically disenfranchised for their skin color. What, now you need a “trigger warning” before we continue to fuel corporate profits off the legacy of slavery while ignoring the…

“If the free market can’t do it, then the government needs to.”

“a clip of Reagan deflecting a question about his age with a joke”

Not necessarily.

“I misspoke when meaning to say I am grateful no one was killed in NY attack.”

Arguably Gary Johnson actually has a mildly pro-Hillary effect on the race. I’m no Johnson fan, but there is that to say for him.

It’s always been an interesting feature of privacy law that the courts, seemingly, respect the right to commercialize one’s image or persona more than the right to simply keep it away from the public gaze. The “right of publicity” tort has been allowed to operate with relative freedom from First Amendment…
