It goes like this: the rolling hitch, the figure eight, the double fish, the knots that bind you to a hallelujah

NYC’s air quality is so toxic it just got an hourlong Netflix standup special

See also the “coach fired for praying quietly near the football game” case from last year, the cited facts of which were also almost completely fabricated. (He prayed loudly on the field, pressured players, wasn’t fired for it)

The Sotomayor and Jackson dissents are your basic Desmond Tutu: If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.

[taps sign] If Sotomayor wrote an opinion, read it first. Her dissent in the affirmative action case is on page 140 of the PDF. "the Court cements a superficial rule of colorblindness as a constitutional principle in an endemically segregated society"

Ketanji. Brown. Jackson.

With let-them-eat-cake obliviousness, today, the majority pulls the ripcord and announces "colorblindness for all" by legal fiat.
But deeming race irrelevant in law does not
make it so in life. And having so detached itself from this country's actual past and present experiences, the Court has now been lured into interfering with the crucial work that UNC and other institutions of higher learning are doing to solve America's real-world problems.
No one benefits from ignorance. Although formal race-linked legal barriers are gone, race still matters to the lived experiences of all Americans in innumerable ways, and today's ruling makes things worse, not better. The best that can be said of the majority's perspective is that it proceeds (ostrich-like) from the hope that preventing consideration of race will end racism. But if that is its motivation, the majority proceeds in vain. If the colleges of this country are required to ignore a thing that matters, it will not just go away.
