And ya don't have to be in Minnesota, folks. I'm not spending a dollar tomorrow, nor am I earning one. The more of us who do it everything, the more an impact, the more notice, all that. Let's do it.

In solidarity with our brothers, sisters, and peers in Minnesota, we're not open on Friday. Join us.

...I'll be honest, I don't think I've ever watched a guy tank a team like Pegula just did the Bills. I mean, as a Pats fan, this is probably good for us short and long term, but man, feels bad in the same way watching a car crash does.

I have to say this a lot, but before you get all full of hot air and try to get us to fire our employee because she called you out, try looking US up. We don't play that bad-faith bullshit. You being sad you got owned online is not my problem, or my people's problem. Touch grass.

Uh, creative, I guess, but not exactly how trademark law works.

Layup for the next president to promise investigations and prosecutions for everybody who facilitated political motivated prosecutions at the DoJ. One of the first steps needs to be that the decision to bring frivolous cases and abuse their power was a life ruining one.

Honestly, I'm going to start to block people who take a lawyers legal explanation as an automatic endorsement. If a person cant think critically or hear something they don't want to hear, the odds of an interaction containing value seem pretty minimal.

Plenty has been said about the content, but a separate criticism: I don't know if I've ever seen a less articulate or skillful anchor. Dude is a mushmouth. I see clips of him sometimes, even just little 30 second riffs, and wince multiple times.

One of my hotter takes is that being aggressively shitty to people over inconsequential shit is a pretty significant character flaw and is, in fact, contemptible. Yes, even if you're having a bad day. Yes, even if you don't like their politics.

Nobody is going to do this to us. Cite playground law all you, but Goose v. Gander only holds if the gander is weak. The world's response to Trump will make more sense when you realize this. We'll fix this domestically in some way or it won't be fixed.

*God* he sucks.

You know, the best thing sports taught me is how to see and appreciate my impact and my contribution even when it's not central and pre-eminent. I wish that for a lot of you. I see about twenty people a day on here who could use it.

I never really had time for Stranger Things. It always hit when work was nuts. But it's popular and ending so I'm starting. Very interesting watching a cultural touchstone this way. It's good! Incredibly overrated but good!

Ty Pennington asked us to love a bus once. The bus was successfully moved. Several times.

Well she hit me like a missile at like 6:30 am so now we're fighting.

This dog, man.

I'm having a cigar in summer clothes in late December, so, this is both enjoyable and existential disquieting.

Just cut myself shaving for the first time in my actual life and she's a gusher. I feel like this is some kind of odd milestone.

This is, like, the classic summer associate error. Its the stepping on a rake of law. You can't script this shit.

So apparently there are many Epstein files on the DOJ website where you can highlight the redacted text, copy it, and paste it onto another document to read the redactions

His whole thread is good advice but this is sort of important. Something isnt fair use just because you want it to be. Be careful.

The worst part of being tired is being grumpy. You just become hyper aware of bullshit. Ignorance is bliss.

To revisit the shit talk I got on Twitter ages ago when I called this trafficking asshole a piece of shit: I would piece this mfer up. Easy work.

I've been in both positions. The one thing you can't fake, tough your way through, or be brave about? Being so tired you think you might die, zero hyberbole.

Watch Joshua's left foot. If the toe is down, he's looking to plant. That'll tell yoi if he's carrying him.

This was honestly my assumption, and it's how it reads to me- a subject playing ball with who they think is an ally.

AAA made a little docuseries trying to sell their "AI Arbitrator". ...whooo boy

God. Bleak. So bleak.

The smart man is scarier than the scary man to other smart men.

I see a lot of oppobrium for people based on how critical they were of Joe Biden. Literally, "criticism of Joe Biden got us in this mess." Folks, nobody bears more blame for the damage criticizing him did than Joe Biden. That debate? Lost the election. It lost America's trust. Period. It's on him.

This "mediocre white men" thing a lot you decided to go with on whatever discord you organize on is pretty bizarre to keep throwing out at extremely accomplished professionals, ngl. Mike has done more with the limited time we've all got on this Earth than most I've met.

Is this a thing? Retreating is not giving up. Only giving up is giving up.

This has been an extremely successful, extremely crazy, deeply weird few days. The future of this profession is not going to look a lot like its past, I don't think.

Look, I'm not getting bigger, I'm getting slowly smaller. So I know these airlines are starting to squeeze with these seats, man. I feel like I'm sitting in dollhouse furniture doing a tea party

Jesus I haven't trained in 6 years and I have a chipped spine and I'd do better than this rolling out of bed, what is he trying to prove

I maintain that those with followings do not, in fact, have to treat those without followings with kid gloves if said people start acting poorly. Punching down is bad. Half of this shit that gets called punching down on a site like this quite literally is, in actuality, punching *back*.

What a great opportunity for us all to get coffee literally anywhere else

5 flights in four days. For an inveterate airport hater, this is hell.

Ask a lawyer before you attempt shit that even brushes elbows with money. *Especially* somebody else's money. "But lawyers are expensive 😭" If you can't afford to consult a lawyer about the thing, don't do the thing. I promise, I'm even more expensive coming after you than helping you.

I will reiterate my controversial take on this that Congressional pay is way too low, and the only way to combat this is to raise it by like 3-4x. I'm a successful lawyer with a varying income and in a typical month, I make more money than my congressperson. I could not afford two households.

Checking sports news today is a reminder how few people played high level contact sports.

Folks don't understand power, and unless and until they do, our present times and the following times are just beyond them.

The world really desperately wants me to just lean into all this modern technology and it's really hard to do that when this shit messes up so, so often.

Tom Stoppard is a huge loss. Arcadia is one of those works that staggers me when I think about how it came from a human brain. In today's era of diluted creativity and AI slop, it stings just that little bit more to lose a true genius. I have most of his plays, might reread them all.

New York is way too dense for these stunts. The person who planned this is a clown.

Fried *and injected* a turkey this year. Yeah, Idk how im going back

I think it might be useful to let folks know how lawyers and legal organizations take cases.

It was already dead. I...had no idea this fact wasn't common knowledge.

So, pre-existing conditions. Got it. Yeah, I bet your colleagues want to run on that, Markwayne.

...so a bunch of people who didnt know two rando jags were on a company meeting were on a company meeting? Fraud is, like, the tip of the damn iceberg here.
