"An Originalist Critique of Fetal Personhood" w Chip Carter is officially online (& forthcoming in U. Penn. L. Rev.)! papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers..... We scour 19th cen. dictionaries & the context in which the 14A was ratified to discover the original public & legal meaning of "person" in 1868.

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

Worth noting here that nothing in the published evidence changed. Just a hack at the head of HHS was enough to shift behavior.

Across ERs, Tylenol orders for pregnant people dropped after health officials linked drug to autism — STAT “Don’t take Tylenol. Don’t take it.”

“Tylenol is the medication that is safe, the one medication that is safe to control pain and fever during pregnancy. We don’t know if people were substituting paracetamol for other pain meds that are known to be hazardous [during pregnancy], like ibuprofen”…Or just getting no pain management at all

This is a new one for my dog….

This is it. I often draw analogies to the five stages of grief when it comes to writing. 😂Corey just put into words a literal five stages of scholarly writing

Yes silence is often the norm in my experience but it feels like MUCH more silence than normal!

There has been a ton of silence. Few rejections. But just a lot of silence.

Those low gas prices are doing great! Gas station up the street from me has increased price by 30 cents a gallon since Monday!

So much winning.

Any theories on what predicts these judgments? I am having a hard time figuring out features shared by countries at the top and bottom of the spectrum. (E.g., we have seen recent authoritarian movements/attempted coups in several countries near the top, but not France or Italy.)

Top FDA drug official is trying to hire a friend who's seeking a bold new warning on antidepressants The Food and Drug Administration is reviewing a request for new warnings on antidepressant drugs, and that's presenting an unusual conflict of interest at the agency.

The incessant attempts of this Administration to do harm to pregnant people under the guise of “protection” is exhausting and based on misinformation and flimsy data (at best)

This is Button. His family decided he was ready to be left home alone for the first time today. As it turns out, freedom can be a little awkward. 12/10 (TT: beginningwithbutton)

‘What’s your plan for this pregnancy?’ Comfort, shame and a missed diagnosis — Stateline For nearly 60 years, crisis pregnancy centers have been a pillar of the anti-abortion movement.

Coming soon to the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta. An absolute classic

Today one of my 1L students told me that my feedback on her midterm "changed her life" by helping her understand, for the first time, how she could improve her approach to legal analysis. And damn, if that type of student feedback doesn't make it all worth it 🥰

I think she caught me.

Found an article in the printing room at the law school with Calvin's Case in the title. @anthonymkreis.bsky.social where you at

Today in LegReg: Presidential control over administrative agencies

Evergreen post

Atlanta could be the home of the next Democratic National Convention The DNC has narrowed it down to five potential host cities.

100%…as you say, these attempts would be challenged (and hopefully reversed), but the chaos, uncertainty, and whiplash in policy would cause uncertainty and patient harm in the process as it all gets worked out

This would be an absolutely insane and unprecedented use of 21 USC 355(e)'s "imminent hazard provision."

FDA's website indicates that this provision has only been used once, in 1977, for phenformin hydrochloride, a diabetes drug linked to lactic acidosis (which has a mortality rate of about 50%)

NY attorney general's office orders NYU Langone to resume services for trans kids New York law prohibits discrimination based on gender identity, the AG's office said in a letter.

NY AG orders NYU Health to stop obeying in advance.

“NYU Langone’s change in policy is self-imposed; there has been no change in federal law to require the cessation of medically necessary transgender health care.”
