RIP Richard Posner, a former judge who is best known for his contribution to the greatest thread ever posted on this website.
Taylor Swift as Richard Posner books, a series.

It's weird that when you put a tie on a dog, he looks like he's a silly little fellow and when you put a tie on a cat, he looks like he actually does have a job and is probably dissatisfied with it

My law school application said I wanted to “give a voice to the voiceless.” The voiceless turns out to be a mid-cap company that needs its NDA by Friday.

I have a strange appreciation for utterly shameless profiteering.

WSH decided to punt to LAR from the LAR 40* on 4th & 6* with 8:21 remaining in the 4th while losing 13 to 20. With a Surrender Index of 123.03, this punt ranks at the 100th percentile of cowardly punts of the 2026 season, and the 99.9th percentile of all punts since 1999.

Many scholars have made this argument. But it's the first time that I personally am making it, which is pretty exciting for me

Incredible that now to pass the bar exam, you need to outscore the cutoff by more than the margin of fraud
Wow. For years, an official in Arkansas allegedly tampered with bar exam scores, pulling points from some test takers and giving them to others. This caused numerous failing exams to pass, and resulted in "at least one instance" where an otherwise passing exam fell below the requisite threshold. cc: @BarExamTutor

Moreover, not once does the local rule linked even discuss alignment (ragged right or justified?) which is going to have a major impact on letter spacing, about which the judge is supposedly concerned.
The problem is Judge Merryday is including Palatino and Book Antiqua [an MS ripoff], implying only two faces, but without mention of any of specific cuts of Palatino. I have a number of cuts of Zapf's masterwork on my computer with varying letter spacing—are they all permitted? Frankly, Judge Merryday should read Bringhurst's Palatino: A Natural History (which has some magnificent examples of Zapf's process and the subsequent history).
