It's been almost 2 years since I had a furry little dude snoozing happily next to me on the couch. That is one of the best feelings in life to me, and I'm so glad to feel it again.

MUST Apple be such a snot to not have an Apple News app for Android so I can read articles my iPhone-having friends send to me from it?

Coordinated evil. Makes Watergate look like quaint shoplifting.

Jfc. As if all the BS redactions weren't nefarious and illegal enough. I cling to hope that all the bastards in this administration will eventually be convicted and punished for their evil acts.

I've been trying to find new music by bands from recent years that I like so I don't become a complete fossil. This is one of the bands I like.

The #1 movie when you were 10is how your 2026 is going to go. Uh oh. Great movie though. I saw it 7 times in our huge old theater that year.

But wait, there's more..

This Epstein files "release" is the most disgusting cover up in American history

I'm unspeakably mad, yet not surprised whatsoever.

Keep Your Business Trade Secrets Secret, Or Else! Why & How to Protect Them youtube.com/shorts/bNvwe... #iplawsky #lawsky

I am too disgusted to work today. It's hard to practice law some days when this administration just keeps flouting it with zero negative consequences and is actively trying to ruin the USPTO.

You'd think child rape would be a nonpartisan, send-them-all-to-prison issue, but power prevents that, as usual. This should not be allowed to stand.

Everything is going to be redacted to the point of being worthless. They'll claim they redacted the 🟠💩 parts for "national security reasons."

If they let him do this with the Kennedy Center, you know he'll go for it with the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials and the Washington Monument. Nothing is sacred to him.

Well well well if it isn't the most predictable thing ever. The double fail of not producing everything on time and violating the law.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a country in possession of a little bit of oil, must be in want of some American intervention. ʷⁱᵗʰ ᵃᵖᵒˡᵒᵍⁱᵉˢ ᵗᵒ ᴶᵃⁿᵉ ᴬᵘˢᵗᵉⁿ

There will come a time when people of good faith are empowered to uphold the law. When that time comes, Illinois will have the testimony and records needed to pursue justice to its fullest extent. The truth of what Trump and his masked agents are doing in Chicago will be told.

Things I have had in my eye today: 1. Contact lens 2. Eyedrop 3. Dog spittle 4. Lemon cookie crumb

This is Emmett, one of my two new rescue boys. He turns 5 in a few days. He likes to hang out with me in my home office. He needs a job title. I had creat punny titles for my cat but I'm having trouble with dog ones. Suggestions?

This is Milo, 7, the other rescue dude I just got. He's busy looking for food in the kitchen but also likes to cuddle with Emmett in my office. He needs a job title too.

If I'm going to do these videos, I'm going to entertain myself in the process. IP law can be fun and gory!

This week's WAND Happy Tails features Gravy and Kelly!

POTUS and his goons find a new way to be infantile every damn day.

What land did Venezuela steal from us, exactly? We are going to war over blatant greed not concealed by his stupidity and lying.

Am I still mad my parents wouldn't let me go because I was only just shy of 15? Yes. It was literally a mile from my house. What could go wrong with a gaggle of unsupervised mid-teens girls going to an all-day music festival? 😁

Why your business can't rely on automatic copyright rights to maximize the copyright rights and their value. youtube.com/shorts/dbBcv...

They've had 15 YEARS since the Affordable Care Act was enacted to come up with a plan. Yet, they have nothing. They don't care. Perhaps if they had to rely on ACA plans like many small business owners do, they'd care enough to make it better, not destroy it. We need universal care.

Learning to paint and these two little dudes are what is keeping me sane these days. If you can afford to adopt a shelter or rescue animal and love them forever, I highly recommend it. Milo, 7, and Emmett, 5, came from a rescue. They're the sweetest good boys.

Every damn day.

Who would've thought these guys would be fighting against an evil empire IRL...

HoHoHo! Tonight is the night we have all been waiting for #JoeBob'sColdCruelChristmas. Lets get through the day, get our quick naps and plenty of snacks. Its gonna be a late one. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn @therealjoebob123.bsky.social @darcythemailgirl.bsky.social Baby, its cold outside😈

Can AI be an inventor? 🤖 NO! The USPTO rule is clear: only natural persons can be inventors. You can't list AI as an inventor, and claiming you invented the parts AI did is the sin of Impersonation and can invalidate your patent. Document the human conception! youtube.com/shorts/VzOBw...

Trying to save money with self-filing is the patent sin of Amateurism. You risk not getting a patent or getting one with weak claims that competitors can walk around easily. A bad DIY provisional application (PPA) can be worthless for a non-provisional application! youtube.com/shorts/7druS...

Today is one of those days when it feels absurd to be going about my job as usual while the current administration is actively destroying the Constitution and thumbing its nose at the Declaration of Independence, which utterly breaks my heart. Nothing is normal or stable.

I am happy this is the law in my state now. When terminally ill people are ready to die, we can allow them to have some peaceful control over and dignity about it. My dad (brain tumor) would have been better off passing when he was ready rather than lingering semi-conscious like he did.

My dogs have middle names. Emmett Wayne and Milo Nicholas. Somehow this makes them even cuter. I wish I knew the stories behind their names.

Helping people with disabilities READ is "woke." This is cruel on purpose. "The change [to Calibri] was meant to improve accessibility for readers with disabilities, such as low vision and dyslexia, and people who use assistive technologies, such as screen readers." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/09/u...

As you do. My neighbor caws at them.
