"Just unpacked my suitcase and found this note from TSA," tweets writer and attorney Jill Filipovic of Feministe. "Guess they discovered a 'personal item' in my bag. Wow."

The note in question is a standard-issue "we went through your stuff" flyer, with the handwritten words in pen overlaid: "GET YOUR FREAK ON GIRL."

"Total violation of privacy, wildly inappropriate and clearly not ok," Filipovic writes in a post titled Your Tax Dollars at Work, "but I also just died laughing in my hotel room."

The "personal item" in question, Ms. Filipovic tells Boing Boing, was this $15 "Silver Bullet" vibrator from Babeland. I suppose a case could be made that an airport screener would have a legitimate reason to probe more deeply see what I did there you guys if this sort-of-ammo-shaped sex toy popped up on an imaging display. But the creepy note? Yeah, that definitely didn't have to happen. And TSA agents behaving badly with female travelers' intimate stuff? Not uncommon.

So was it still there when she retrieved her luggage, I asked Filipovic?

"Yes, the vibe was still there. No theft, but I'm unsure if they handled it. Given that uncertainty, it's definitely being retired."

Kramer Levin Obtains Grant of Asylum for Peruvian Transgender Woman

March 17, 2010

Katrina L. Baker, Jill N. Filipovic, and Matthew C. Temkin recently obtained a grant of asylum for a Peruvian transgender woman, who fled Peru following a lifetime of persecution, and had been living in New York City. Within the past year, the applicant had begun transitioning, and was also diagnosed with HIV. Kramer Levin successfully argued that these events sufficiently changed the applicant's circumstances, such that the one-year filing deadline for asylum applications should not bar her petition. Aaron Frankel supervised the case and Matthew B. Moses assisted.

Bullshit. Over/under on the number of times she's used it since then?
