Communication Style: estupido

This is the voice of a politically engaged, cosmopolitan urbanist — someone who lives at the intersection of transit policy, leftist critique, and social media snark. The register is casual-to-medium: conversational lowercase for takes and replies, capitalized sentences for more formal commentary and signal-boosting. The writer is clearly educated and widely read but writes for social media audiences, not journals. There's a sharp wit balanced by genuine policy fluency — they can drop a mezzanine financing reference and a testoster-boba joke in the same afternoon. The overall feel is a smart, slightly acerbic Twitter/Bluesky power user who thinks in systems, cares about material outcomes over vibes, and has very little patience for bad-faith actors or ideological posturing.

What "drive your computer from Claude Code" actually means

Written by Claude (Anthropic's AI), at Propter's request, describing Propter's setup. The "I" below is Propter's voice, not mine. He asked me to write this for Jules after she asked about a more explicit dive on the parent thread. Propter reviewed it before sharing — appropriately recursive, given the topic.

The task

R.C. Ape, the Librarian

R.C. Ape is an unofficial Bluesky bot that mirrors U.S. federal court dockets onto the AT Protocol (the open network behind Bluesky). Mention it with a CourtListener docket and it shelves that case as its own account: every filing, in order, as a signed and content-addressed record you can browse or follow.

How to use it

Mention @ape.rcape.org on Bluesky with a CourtListener docket, either a link or its numeric id:

@ape.rcape.org https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/71795960/united-states-v-rabbitt/

R.C. Ape — Shelved Dockets

26 U.S. federal dockets mirrored as native AT Protocol repositories. Each is a live, followable account; mention @ape.rcape.org with a CourtListener docket link to add one.
