Elon bought this platform, freed it from the tyranny of peak Woke as well as frequent collapses & gave it new features & technologies, and allows ingrates like Amy to rail against their benefactor
Imagine if Elon Musk did something to benefit others with his trillion.

I wonder whether the Delaware Court of Chancery might be having an “Are we the baddies?” moment this weekend.

I bet Elon now orders off the Cantina menu at Taco Bell without even thinking about it.

I think the American left would have more respect for Elon if he had earned his trillion dollars in a respectable way, like collapsing foreign currency markets, rather than uselessly building things.

I just read a district court opinion that described Gilmore & Black's Admiralty opus as "a treatise from 1975." ☠️

One of the main reasons I'm excited about the Spaceballs 2 movie is that they incorporated a lawyer sidekick character named Lodestarr.

One of the reasons biglaw billing has gotten out of control is that associates no longer follow the rule that you can only bill at most .25 of an hour per day for "ideating while throwing around the football."

A class action lawsuit I would support: Making too-small parking spaces causing door-dinged vehicles.

Random Maritime Law Fact of the Day: "A case in admiralty does not, in fact, arise under the Constitution or laws of the United States. These cases are as old as navigation itself; and the law, admiralty and maritime, as it has existed for ages, is applied by our Courts to the cases as they arise." American Insurance Company v. Canter, 26 U.S. 511 (1828)

This is good tweeting.
People keep asking me: "Will you get revenge on Trump for ending your political career?" The answer is yes. I'll be adding to the unemployment number in January.

I’m a professor and I *still* have that nightmare where I’m taking a final exam for a class I didn’t even know I was signed up for.

Let me get this straight: A European guy comes over here and posts videos of Alabama and he's suddenly de Tocqueville, and I go over to Europe and post videos of the Eiffel Tower and I'm a "gauche tourist."

The one legal practice I wish I'd developed as a solo practitioner would be offshore yacht sale closings. It's still a thing! If you're a new lawyer who loves boats and are good at marketing your services to people with money you could potentially do it!
