Can we please stop calling Solicitors-General, “General”?

You think self-professed textualists would understand “General” is an adjective and not a rank.

Do I derail my morning productivity by listening to the Birthright Citizenship argument at SCOTUS?

Tallis, Gesualdo, Poulenc, and Allegri programmed tonight.

Tenebrae is always a highlight of the liturgical year. And the choir here does it well.

Dang, even satire gets it right sometimes…
Trump has wisely chosen to focus some of his attacks on the two most craven and immoral groups in our society: corporate lawyers and university administrators.

Trying this again. Not that I have many (any?) followers. But I was wondering if any #legalwriting professors here on Bluesky might be willing to chat with someone hoping to join your ranks?

Maybe if I tag someone like @mchannon.bsky.social it will get traction?? 😁

If you’re underlining whole paragraphs of your brief, chances are the emphasis you’re trying to convey is going to get lost. 😆

My first semester of law school I realized I wanted to be a #legalwriting professor.

Today, five and one-half years later, I got a call inviting me to a law school’s legal writing faculty.

Today’s a good day!

Hi baby! Our elephant family welcomed its tiniest member on Saturday night when Rose-Tu gave birth to a new calf 💕🐘

Post a picture you took (no description) to bring some zen to the timeline.

Hi #legalwriting skeeters!

I lost my job last week (staff attorney to an elected state appellate judge) and think this is a great chance to try and pivot to what I always wanted to do — teach legal writing and reasoning.

Anyone in the community willing to chat?

Thanks!
