I remember how I felt going from biglaw (where I compiled closing volumes by hand) to a boutique (where that process was automated). I remembered those late nights in adobe pdf, and thought, a bit bitterly, about how they could’ve been avoided. Investing in tech is a firm morale issue.

Responsibly adopting legal tech (esp if you’re billing hrly) is an ethical obligation *and* a retention imperative. Clients & attys know these tools exist. Patience for clunky, slow systems & avoidable grunt work is eroding - and rightfully so. Tech investment is key to keeping clients & talent.

If you’re in the Hartford area, Death of a Salesman at the Hartford Stage is one of the most haunting productions I’ve ever seen. Incredible work of art brought thoughtfully to the stage, and it’ll stick with you long after you leave. Go see it.

Dudebro on the metro north asked (nicely) if he could get my bag down from the overhead for me, and when I said no, said (less nicely) β€œreally?”

Lift heavy things, ladies, you won’t regret it

I’m so tired of seeing people bash Bluesky for being an echo chamber when X is an actual intentionally constructed echo chamber that is demonstrably radicalizing people across the political spectrum who still use it

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Trump campaign peace promises loom large over wartime presidency The "anti-war" candidate has bombed seven countries and launched a new regime-change war in Iran.

"No president in the modern era has ordered more military strikes against as many different countries as Donald Trump. He's attacked seven nations, three of which β€” Iran, Nigeria and Venezuela β€” had never been targeted... more individual air strikes in 2025 than President Biden did in four years."

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

It's always something like this and never something like 'use AI to check whether a manager is sexually harassing a subordinate'. (Which, to be clear, is not a great idea either; my point is these tools are mainly seen by management as a way to exert tighter control over labor.)

Gov. Abigail Spanberger: "The scale of the corruption is unprecedented. There's the cover up of the Epstein files, the crypto scams, cozying up to foreign princes for airplanes and billionaires for ballrooms, putting his name and face on buildings all over our nation's capital."

Want to brush up on my Spanish during my time off. I understand pretty much everything that is said *to* me, but *producing* words is rusty. If you’ve been in this position with a language before, what’s worked for you? Duolingo? Something else?
