Lawyer life is sometimes wild. Two clients crying in my office today, one with anger and the other with joy. My heart is not made for this.

MothersEsquire A website for mothers and lawyers focused on professional support and advocacy. Our goal is to reduce the attrition rate of women lawyers and support all caregiving lawyers.

I had a delightful call with Mothers Esquire over lunch to plan our second conference in Louisville, KY May 7-9. We will be addressing the unique challenges of working lawyers who are expected to care for families. And bourbon. There will be bourbon. mothersesquire.org

Siri “unintentionally” recorded private convos; Apple agrees to pay $95M Apple users may get $20 each for up to five Siri-enabled devices.

"The only clue that users seemingly had of Siri's alleged spying was eerily accurate targeted ads that appeared after they had just been talking about specific items like Air Jordans or brands like Olive Garden"

I’m happy that my subscription is supporting profit sharing. Y’all put out awesome content.

Listening to a SciFi book at work. Aliens. Magic. Fantasy physics. The only incredible thing is the mention of a basement in Miami, Florida.

This means war!

Observing the rapid migration to this app from all sorts of other platforms is pretty fascinating. I’m looking forward to learning more about interacting here.

It’s like insurance litigation without the actual injury.

The blonde female lead singer of Sixpence None The Richer wearing a red tulle skirt and black bodysuit singing on stage in front the her male drummer with short grey hair and glasses at a concert in Charlotte, NC on 11/22/24.

I’m so glad my daughter dragged me out for a concert with a TikTok famous band. I sang along with at least a few Sixpence None The Richer songs.

What a time we live in! ☕️☕️☕️

I’m in court today, sans deer antlers, and the fashion is killer. 38° and shorts/t-shirt with boat shoes. Someone else was wearing a furry Russian hat. A full Adidas track suit. So much fashion.

Little things that annoy me today:

1. The guy blowing leaves outside my office in the middle of a rainstorm.

3. The patriarchy.
4. My clients.
5. Other attorney’s clients.
6. Lingering existential dread.

Force majure? Hurricanes laugh at these clauses.

There is a teams discussion going on in my firm about whether a presumptive father has standing to block the pregnant person from relocating. Someone brought up back child support as an economic interest to convey standing. I’m sick. This is disgusting.

This behavior is what we get to look forward to. Men “protecting” women by taking away our rights.

This weekend has been a reset from all politics all the time. Yard work, shopping, cleaning, cooking. It was nice to have a long list of mundane things to do.

A bridge is to the left and Loftin’s Island is to the right. It is a bright and sunny day with large puffy white clouds in a blue sky. Fort Myers, Florida.

I love the idea of grammar nerds roaming the streets in gangs.
