I’m seeking funding for my next startup that solves book shortages.

We “use Ai” to circulate local caches of books to registered members.

Members can “check out” books curated by local influencers who manage the cache.

LITRARY: 80-slide pitch deck available on request.

I, @joshualenon.bsky.social, being of sound mind and body, state that all Ai recreations of myself may only read posts from @infinitescream.bsky.social. No other statements, both actual or fictional, may be created using my likeness.

Made it!

O’Hare: 2 (But one was WestJet’s fault)

Delay notice.

@discorob.bsky.social called it!

15 minute reprieve due to the delay!

(Still taxi-ing.)

All the airplanes. All of them.

Thanks. Still taxi-ing. There’s a literal parade of planes ahead of us.

Thanks! I’m really lucky to have created this role and help build the #legatech industry.

I am at Chicago O'Hare International Airport.

25 minutes until my connection boards. It’s in a different terminal & my current flight isn’t even at a gate yet. Fun!

Let me know if you need any background on @goclio.bsky.social’s #LegalTrendsReport. I’m on the team that researches and writes these.

To put it bluntly: law students really need to know their shit now.

A student with only a surface-level grasp of doctrine and practice can’t compete with someone who deeply understands the fundamentals and knows how to use an LLM to amplify their skills.

An IP lawyer in North Carolina told the state's top court that his ex-wife isn't entitled to half the value of his law firm in their divorce, arguing that whatever he earns from the firm's goodwill in the future can't be divvied up as part of the marital estate. www.law360.com/artic...

Are we racing into legal tech… and leaving people behind?

Abolish the bar exam.

Yesterday, a law graduate taking the bar exam in NY had a heart attack during the test.

Her fellow test takers were told to stay in their seats. They were told not to help her.

They *did not stop the exam.* They demanded test takers proceed as usual.

Today’s travel is eased by using my Osprey Porter 46 travel backpack and wearing a Eddie Bauer Ultimate Voyager Travel Blazer.

I am at Vancouver International Airport but not for fun reasons. Back

The Trump administration claims it doesn't defy court orders but a magistrate in Texas caught them red-handed using a too-small font.
