A very nice write-up of one of my BFFs from law school—even though it somehow fails to mention the impact of such defining law school moments like weekly Battlestar viewing and also the the Battlestar board game.

We were all extremely cool.

My favorite thing about a class of all 3Ls is that I get to share their last first day of school with them!

Happy last first day of school to my Deals students!

Excuse me, but what do you mean by “IF.”

IT IS FOUND, right?!

RIGHT?!!

“Faculty attrition”

WHY DID YOU TAG ME IN THIS MOLLY YOU KNOW I AM TERRIFIED. UNSUBSCRIBE.

Also there’s a snake in my backyard but @micahschwartzman.bsky.social and Brian Hockin both say it’s “100% garter.”

But what of supervising law review notes and answering emails? Surely those, too, contributed to the revolution.

Lol I am not sophisticated enough to be setting up backup accounts for myself.

Congrats, Ann! They are so lucky to have you. And I loooooved living in the Mountain West.

The bots have found me!

I didn’t see the other! But thanks for keeping an eye out!

I’ve finally made it—a Bluesky account is impersonating me!

@cathyhwang1.bsky.social is not me or “my backup account.” Please report it. Merci beaucoup!

I threatened to take @jaredellias.bsky.social to Paynes Prairie when he was in FL this week and feed him to the gators. Having survived many gators, he was allowed to present his excellent paper, The Credit Markets Go Dark, which you should read.

UGH YES BUT I WILL RESENT AND ENVY YOU. (But yes would love your thoughts!)

Grateful for the opportunity to present my paper at NTU's Young Scholar Workshop on International Economic Law. Huge thanks to my mentor, Professor Cathy Hwang, for the generous support and encouragement—it means the world! Excited to keep working on this project and push it further.

heh

Taipei highlight: Got to see my RA, Dah-Wei (David) Yih, present “Building Procedural Guardrails for Econ Security Measures” at Nat’l Taiwan Univ’s ACWH Young Scholar Wkshp.

His paper was described as impactful & beautifully written. Can’t wait to read the final version!

It me.

Wish you were here. ❤️

Just trying to socialize the court to giving a green light, perhaps?!

I promised Waldos and I deliver.

So lovely to see Andrew Tuch at my NTU talk, and to hang with Afra Afsharipour & Chien-Chung Lin at the night market.

Taipei is extremely popping this week, and not just with Taiwanese popcorn chicken (but also with that).

CAN I PLEASE BE INVITED?!

+1 for space

Had so much fun talking with Alex Yang of NTU today about Purpose & Nonprofit Enterprise.

It is indeed more fun to give a talk into a giant karaoke microphone. 🎤 🎤

Excited to present Purpose & Nonprofit Enterprise (coauthored with Dorothy Lund) at National Taiwan University today!

Watch this space for 2 (or more) very exciting Waldos who will be popping up in Taipei today.

I’d offer a joke about shareholder litigation but it’s derivative

I’m a monster. Next time I’m in SLC, we shall go together.
