Replying to @TheRickWilson
This was clear to everyone on Twitter. Not only would I get fed posts by trolls like Marjorie Taylor Green, but I would get the exact same posts over and over, despite the fact that I kept clicking “not interested.” He didn’t just feed us MAGA propaganda, he force-fed us.

Uh-oh. It seems the rogue X suspension machine has gotten to #WordRake! Obviously it’s an error, but getting in contact with support at X/Twitter is just about impossible. So at the moment, make your way over to LinkedIn or Facebook to see what we’re up to! (1/2)

Our awesome system administrator is trying hard to get this error fixed. If anyone has experience with how to make that happen any faster, let me know! We may be down for a few days. (2/2)

I really love this new interview from @ClaireEParsons! She addresses something we rarely hear talked about in legal practice: wellness. Lawyers may be expected to grind on forever, but they're still human and have human needs.
Part of being an attorney is making connections and projecting confidence, so how does an anxious introvert succeed? Legal writing expert @ClaireEParsons of @brilliantlegal1 shares her own journey, and how mindfulness has made a difference: hubs.li/Q02RpH0B0

You may be using AI in your process but for the love of all things holy, please clean up after yourself.
There’s no shame in using technology in your writing process. It can come at the beginning, middle, or end. The key is making sure that your output is authentic and meaningful. Check out these 8 tips for improving your AI first draft with WordRake. hubs.li/Q02QblrR0

Technology can help legal writers be more efficient, but it can't replace the analytical skills needed to craft compelling arguments. Professor Susan Tanner explores how technology can improve legal writing in part 2 of her interview. hubs.li/Q02QbqsR0

If Donald Trump was talking like this at Thanksgiving you’d take his keys.

New interview up! Professor Tanner had a lot to say, so her piece is divided in two. I really enjoyed reading it, so check it out here!
Developing as a legal writer comes in growth spurts: first during 1L; then during the first year of practice. We must coach young writers through these periods with specific, constructive feedback. Read Prof. Tanner’s advice here. hubs.li/Q02Ndv1F0

The choice is simple: 1. A decent but frail old man, surrounded by a good, experienced team. 2. A bat-shit crazy old man, surrounded by a bunch of sycophant hooligans.

It’s no secret where I stand politically. And this is unacceptable. I’m glad the former President is relatively safe, and send prayers to all those who were affected. We don’t fight our political battles with weapons in America. We do it with our voices and our votes.

“We need to see him energized at a rally!” [he holds an energized rally] “We need to see him give an interview!” [he gives an interview] “We need to hear him off a teleprompter!” [He speaks at a church without one] “We need to see him off the cuff!” [He calls in during Morning Joe] [five minutes later…] “I’m sorry, we’re just not seeing what we need to see.” Give me a fucking break, would you.

Bad debate nights happen. Trust me, I know. But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself. Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight — and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit. Last night didn’t change that, and it’s why so much is at stake in November. joebiden.com
