  • 13 federal circuits.

    There should be 13 Supreme Court justices.

    Each justice could be responsible as “executive” of their circuit.

    12 associate justices for the 1st through 12th circuit.

    The chief justice is assigned the Federal Appeals Circuit.

    It makes way too much sense.

  • You can’t change the number of justices on the Supreme Court.

    Except that you can.

    And they did. Eight times.

    1789 - six justices

    1801 - reduced to five justices

    1802 - restored to six justices

    1807 - seven justices

    1836 - nine justices

    1863 - ten justices

    1866 - nine justices

    1867 - eight justices

    1869 - nine justices

  • Not encouraging you or anyone to take Ozempic but the fact that they work so well for weight loss proves that there is a biological pathway that reinforces overeating. It’s beyond the dopamine feedback loop - there is an actual biochemical reason that we are compelled to overeat. It validates the idea that being successful at weight management isn’t decided by willpower alone. Some people are just more biochemically predisposed to overeat.

    These new GLP-1 receptor agonists have shown promise mitigating many compulsive behaviors from overeating to alcoholism to behavioral compulsions. It’s a new area of pharmacology and I’m super excited to watch them discover novel treatments for all manners of issues.
