I am simply going to suggest everyone read @zachweinersmith.bsky.social and @weinersmith.bsky.social excellent book, A City on Mars. bookshop.org/p/books/a-ci...

My latest article, "In Praise of Generative AI," is forthcoming in the Iowa Law Review! In it, I present accounts from the Worst People You Will Ever Meet In Law in which they praise generative AI and all the extra terrible behavior it enables: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

the Pokemon commercial works so well because it's kind of like inviting someone to talk about their fantasy football team, except people actually care about this one

Embarrassing to see adults talk to robots in a public forum. That'd be like if your friend asked a mailbox for directions once. You'd roast him for decades for that shit. Every time the concept of navigating space came up you'd hit him with "Why don't you ask the mailbox?"

For context:

Brody King has the AEW crowd chanting FUCK ICE loud and proud on primetime cable television. Put every belt on him.

LET'S GO

Happy Anniversary to those who celebrate cat attorneys.

LOL. Who needs whistles for their community groups, their PTAs, those Magic: The Gathering nights at the game store, their church organizations, outreach programs, whatever. The roving band of whistle goblins will get you whistles, for free, 100-1000. Drop a line: linktr.ee/3Dwhistles

I don't know if non-lawyers understand how insane this statement is. I honestly can't think of anything remotely comparable in non-lawyer speak. I guess the closest would be a surgeon saying "Imagine if I had to wash my HANDS before doing surgery!"

Yeah. I dunno, I just don't think it's okay that we appear to be ruled by literally the most amoral monsters on the planet?

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs) Good tech. Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales) Bad tech.

Really thorough and interesting piece. As the story mentioned, Tillman was in the FBI for 8 years before resigning.

LEXIS rep caught me on the wrong day.

Brb. Hurling my organization’s accounting software into the sun.

the feds saying theyll end their campaign of terror against an american city if their demands are met is the biggest domestic scandal of my lifetime

This is notable to me because I've heard from some other lawyers that they're not worried about AI hallucinations because they only use the premium Westlaw or Lexis versions. Supposedly, they are limited to the real case databases This clerk used Lexis+ and Lexis Protege and got 8 hallucinations

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

I thought he testified under oath he doesn’t use his government twitter account? bsky.app/profile/warr...

I got a push for an article about how to avoid AI hallucinations but they wanted me to sign up for a "free" trial so I created my own flow chart

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

We owe an incredible debt to the Minnesotans who are on the streets protesting and documenting what is happening.

This sure seems more like the tyranny the Constitution is supposed to protect against than forgiving student loans.

There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.

My SIL wrote a book and pre-orders support the Women’s Foundation of Minnesota’s immigration response fund. www.instagram.com/p/DT5aq-ClEV...

Things only Paul Clement can get away with saying:

Any one of these daily atrocities should result in a full congressional investigation and a disbanding of the agency. The fact that it’s all just shrugged off by those with the power to stop it is a national disgrace.

Every Caleb Williams play

thinking about the pope pacing back and forth in his apartment at 3:30 am yelling at the tv

Unvarnished thuggery

My almost 4 y/o finally watched ‘Into the Spider-Verse’ and loved it. The soundtrack to this movie absolutely rips.

A gift for Monangai 🎁

did someone call the Pope?!

i just watched this video and the fact that they believe this to be exculpatory is genuinely insane

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

Forensic analysis of objective video evidence. This is how you serve readers searching for clarity.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

surrounding them after they just killed somebody and shouting “you can’t kill us all, nazis” is legitimate “ready to run through a wall” inspirational

Smoking bans were great once we had them, it is obvious in retrospect, no sane person would want to go back. "Indoor smoking ban, but for shitheads." Easy peasy.

so we took military action to depose a foreign leader and killed a bunch of people so the president could personally steal a bunch of oil? that’s what’s happening here?

It's important to remember that Donald Trump lies constantly, but this is Donald Trump declaring that he has used the United States military to extort Venezuela into giving him $1.7-2.7 billion for his personal use.

I would like to order one Lazarus Pit, please. 64.media.tumblr.com/26deefbda43e...

Easily.

Having just finished Prof. Vladeck’s book, this follow-up is a useful encapsulation of the problems of SCOTUS’ shadow docket.
