Congrats @safiyanoble on receiving a @macfound Genius Grant!!!
I don’t watch much TikTok, but I know that Mr. Barricade is the best thing on TikTok. https://t.co/QEJpD91JRW
Interesting, although I'm always deeply skeptical of the "law clerk memo" theory of Supreme Court decisionmaking, in which one clerk's view is presented (often by that clerk) as the primary cause of other Justices going in a particular direction. https://t.co/phXz9e0ULP

Honestly @mitchellvii is coming off a bit timid here. Hard to imagine being frightened of @SebGorka unless you're a curb, a pleather vest with weak buttons, or a Der Wienerschnitzel. But then Bill was never what I'd call robust. Nice hair though. https://t.co/0T3RJuBmqD
Sidney Powell is a deranged fabulist and her fabulism doesn't magically become credible just because it's suddenly about someone you hate.
So @TwitterSupport suspended @mrquindazzi for posting the Shakespeare quote “the first thing we do is kill all the lawyers,” WITH ATTRIBUTION TO SHAKESPEARE, in response to this. C’mon @twitter @twittersupport. https://t.co/5eIWXJcrpr

We're rocketing towards the holidays, and it's stressful and difficult for many folks. So please remember to focus on what's important. There's no "right" or "perfect" way to celebrate Four Seasons Total Landscaping Day on November 7th. Just spend it with family.

@aicorea @design_law @lexlanham @TimberlakeLaw @BalmatLaw I was an art student who never even took an IP class in law school. Cool thing about law is you can make yourself an expert.
Things we have done around the house to throw out our backs, over the years: putting on a sock, putting on moisturizer, coughing, thinking *really* hard. Sigh.
"I am preoccupied with how a growing anger might change us, even against our will. Just like our grief, the frustration and rage has to go somewhere." Really interesting article from @cwarzel https://t.co/w5VxHwyKAt
When the primary is the only election that matters, we get crazy polarization in Washington. And instead of doing anything about it, #SCOTUS threw up its hands. Trump beat Biden 52-46 in TX, but we’re heading for a 25R-13D House delegation in which *one* seat is competitive. One. https://t.co/klCGX84zEs
I handed in my thesis 2 years ago. When this photo was taken, I had stayed up all night formatting (I hadn't slept the night before that either). To celebrate I bought a mini bottle of prosseco and a horrible tuna sandwich from the co-op and then slept I for about 17 hours https://t.co/uALdr7LxH3
@brianlfrye @aicorea @design_law @TimberlakeLaw @BalmatLaw english major, psych minor, took a lot of linguistics & creative writing classes! did IP litigation at a big firm before leaving to teach

@aicorea @design_law @lexlanham @TimberlakeLaw @BalmatLaw The trademark examiner path is really common for trademark attorneys. A lot of litigators started in a bigger firm doing business litigation and shifted more into IP, since those areas are often implicated.
@lexlanham @CColmanLaw @brianlfrye @design_law @TimberlakeLaw @BalmatLaw I love when this thread gets revived. It’s by far the most (only?) useful thing I’ve ever done on social media.
@aicorea @design_law @lexlanham @TimberlakeLaw @BalmatLaw I was a history major and worked as a journalist before law school, then worked for a cannabis company and the USPTO as a trademark examiner for 4 years before moving to my current job as a TM attorney at a legal tech company. My varied experiences really help me so much in TMs.
@design_law @aicorea @lexlanham @TimberlakeLaw @BalmatLaw I was a drama major in college and have been a successful trademark and copyright practitioner for over a decade. Very possible!
@aicorea @design_law @lexlanham @TimberlakeLaw @BalmatLaw Having a wide knowledge base is great for TMs because you're capable of recognizing more potential issues with apps - like whether a mark is descriptive in its industry, whether it's in a different language, or if it includes popular slang, slogans, or relates to current trends.
@lexlanham As a 3L with a degree in animation I needed this thread today. Thanks professor!

@CherylRofer @NuclearAnthro Always. Pairs are important so they'll be self-entertaining while you need to do writing, cleaning, or whatever.
The criticism that it’s easy for people to sit on the sidelines and hate on tech companies always falls flat to me. These companies almost never ask the communities harmed what they think—if they do it’s often only after perpetuating massive harms—and even then they don’t listen.
Because often, the communities harmed are saying “don’t do this thing” or “stop doing this thing” and tech companies are like “how do we make this evil thing we are definitely doing slightly less evil?”

"Vaccine misinformation is prevalent and can impact anyone. It does not matter necessarily how educated you are or how much background you have in health care," @uwcip postdoctoral researcher @KolinaKoltai said in a @KBSX915 "Idaho Matters" interview: https://t.co/tTMr0yvN7u
One of my mentors at the firm said she made it 8 years just by telling herself “just wait until the next direct deposit and then you can quit.” So that’s one piece of advice I guess
It’s fun watching first year Big Law associates realize that firms pay you an obscene amount of money so that they can own your soul
No knock on Big Law. I liked much of my time in Big Law and I loved my colleagues. But the money isn’t there to be charitable. The work is real. And it’s hard.

@lawrencehurley @bradheath There's no question that some outlets cover the Court far more comprehensively and with far more nuance than others. That doesn't change my view that, on the whole, too much of the public discourse surrounding the Court focuses on what's accessible in lieu of what's important.
This is truth https://t.co/WXdan3zMHn
Congratulations to all the MacArthur Fellows but in particular to my incredible friends and colleagues @dwaynebetts & @safiyanoble! Serious chills seeing their faces and names on the list!

@CT_Bergstrom Goodhart's Law. When managing software projects ~1980, some people in computing focused on counting lines of code written. My model was the fewer the lines of code, the better. We sometimes had "crunch meetings" to reduce code. Luckily, my bosses agreed. https://t.co/L644Jn9Tmu

@JohnMashey Marilyn Strathern famously summarized Goodhart's law as "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure." Campell's law adds to Goodhart's the counterproductive aspect of gaming behavior; the above is my attempt to condense it.
@David_Dobbs Amazing tip. I never would’ve thought of it. Thank you!
@CT_Bergstrom It’s not actually that large, but it feels infinite when you are in it.
@CT_Bergstrom Taken at the Shawangunk Grasslands. https://t.co/5SnQy80eGv
@CT_Bergstrom FIRE towers. I once in Spruce Mtn tower watched wave after wave of warblers land in the treetops 20 feet below me. Easy hike up. It’s in Plainfield. See AllTrails site for deets.
@CT_Bergstrom Carl, a hike to Mtn tops, eg Spruce Peak (or msg any further S as well) may get you views of warblers. Spruce and also Elmore Mtn have for towers giving exclnt treetop views.
@CT_Bergstrom The corollary to "you get what you measure" is "be careful what you measure as you just might get it."
@CT_Bergstrom The Shawangunk Grasslands is an amazing place. You can’t even believe it exists when you go there.
@CT_Bergstrom Every time we start to set a measurement up I try to figure out how I would game it. It’s amazing to me that more people don’t do that.
@CT_Bergstrom I feel like that should be reserved for cases where the measures are a bit less fucking stupid. This is classic "play stupid games, win stupid prizes."
@CT_Bergstrom Not a sure thing, but damn, something to see when it works. And a fine hike regardless.

@tim_libert @MarechalPhD That's why I think that "country" is probably the wrong frame if there is something there. Countries have only existed in a meaningful way for a small handful of centuries. If a new form of power emerges, it's likely to be closer to something else!
@tim_libert @MarechalPhD I'm suspicious of the "platform megacorp as country" metaphor, but I think we should be careful not to write off the emergence of a new form of government, with a genuine form of force, just because it's not the same kind of force as previously used.
It's quite clear from this just how much AMP was made to improve user experience versus allow Google to forcefully re-intermediate the web. https://t.co/OOmG9XVklP

@ProfMJCleveland @coffee_indiana @FDRLST Sure. But also, "this guy moved a block and didn't update his address" is a very, very far cry from "rigged illegal election."
@ProfMJCleveland @FDRLST Adding an address is better, but it doesn't get around data quality issues, both with the match and the commercial providers. I'm not conversant in the GA laws. But I think people will always be able to find some small number who moved near election day and messed it up.
@ProfMJCleveland @FDRLST The finding about people they think moved is based on the same type of soft data-matching. They compared the voter file (name and YOB) to a third-party data service. They note there's a margin of error; if it's 1%, that would cover most of their finding. https://t.co/r9wD5oAYzr

When they found him he was blue and had an oxygen level of 50. He did not have Covid. He was taken to the ER and put on a ventilator, but they had to put him in *a storage room* because there physically not enough space due to all the unvaccinated Covid cases.
Twenty-four hours later, he was off the vent and his oxygen levels were restored. My siblings, who live closer, flew in. I spoke to him, and he was out of it but okay. Surely he would get treatment now. We thought that was the worst of it. It was not.
When I called and he admitted that he was in the hospital, he was more annoyed than anything else. He tripped, he hurt his leg, couldn't go home for a week or so. How irritating. How dumb. He blamed himself. He loved me, hoped I was well, he was fine, etc. That was the last call.
It was later explained to me that this hospital decided to *re-intubate my father* due to a lack of hospital resources. They couldn't manage. He could not see a cardiologist or a pulmonologist, they were all busy. They could not run the needed tests. So they kept him on the vent.
My dad was not in the ICU, but in a physical rehab unit of the hospital to help him with his leg. They now say they did not know he had pneumonia at that point. He collapsed on the floor in his room and was left there, unnoticed, for six hours.
What happened was that while in the hospital, my dad caught viral pneumonia that went unnoticed. The whole state was in lockdown, and every hospital ICU was filling up with unvaccinated Covid patients. There weren't enough resources. The governor begged people to get vaxxed.

What’s needed is new framing. Not party-oriented but democracy-oriented. Truth-oriented. The media shouldn't elevate liars in the interest of “fairness.” Yes, media should be fair – to the readers, to the facts. But not to the 2-party system. To our democracy. 8/9
The Republicans have overwhelmed the media with corruption. They’ve created scandal fatigue, prompting journalists to do something I call ethics norming. That’s when something that would have been a huge scandal in the recent past is considered normal now. 6/9

Funny enough, a similar thing happened in 2002/2003. Gray Davis only got 3.5 million votes for re-election, but 4 million Californians voted "no" on recalling him. And yet it was CW that this recall would have lower turnout than 2018. Why?
Anti-mask/mandate energy was most visible in OC and the Central Valley. Recall ran ahead of 2018 GOP vote in the CV, but behind in OC.
It's close, but "no" on the recall actually has more votes than Newsom got in 2018. No pollster predicted that. Interestingly, Newsom/No did slightly better in Orange County this time, but slightly worse in LA County. https://t.co/XwLOqxOGpz

@Popehat @MollyJongFast Is Wolfe the one that called Molly’s mom to snitch on her, or was it someone else?
@MollyJongFast @NikkiMcR Today I learned they built a set that looks like a log cabin for Tucker Carlson's Fox Nation show.

@MollyJongFast Yup. I don’t know how she blithered so far down.
@MollyJongFast @mims Good point. Why have all the seats disappeared in public buildings and other venues? It's just weird. They literally ripped them out of the LIRR station in Long Beach.
@MollyJongFast Such an amazing eye.. a true loss
@MollyJongFast I remember this image at the time. In some ways, it effected me more than the pictures of destruction, which seemed unreal. This photo brought it down to the personal. How the events of that awful day impacted the regular, mundane lives of all New Yorkers.
@MollyJongFast Nepotism at that level is straight out of 1980s and early 1990s USSR playbook. Nothing mean in exposing it.
@JamesFallows @MollyJongFast I think that’s Naomi Wolf?
Only quibble here is Trump didn’t “try to” pressure Secretaries of State, state legislatures, courts and Mike Pence. He DID pressure them, it just didn’t work, this time. https://t.co/J7mIwB5uiy
@Noahpinion Totally get the appeal of being told new things you can feel bad about. My family had a standing Sunday morning appointment with an expert for exactly this when I was growing up. Seemed like a good frequency.

I really think progressives have badly undersold the virtues of the BIB when trying to hold it hostage, so futilely, to coerce Manchin and Sinema into a more aggressive reconciliation bill than they support. It's a good bill. I'd vote for it without reservations. https://t.co/EfRCUzi4l6

An American melting pot in which both White and Black people are minor players is incredibly interesting, because it allows us to observe which things about American culture go beyond our traditional racial divide -- and thus envision the future of an integrated, mixed America.
I'm very interested in the parts of California that are mixed Asian-Hispanic. These regions represent a form of racial integration that simply doesn't correspond to the traditional Black-White pattern. For example, check out the southern part of San Francisco: https://t.co/ULaI4gwhtW

@Noahpinion I ignore all the Sam Vimes books.
@Noahpinion First time in Paris this week in a long time: LOTS of new Korean restaurants. Everywhere. How come?
@Noahpinion Also in places like San Leandro - three-way mix of Latino, Black, and Asian, often in the same person (many of which are absurdly attractive). It's the future.
