@AskLyft now waiting for my third driver on a scheduled pickup that was supposed to be here 10 minutes ago. Second time in a row this has happened in Minneapolis.

Happy to (finally) share an essay I've been working on for a while in fits and starts. Thanks to @MinnesotaLawRev and insightful colleagues at workshops at @BerkeleyLaw, @UMichLaw, and @Harvard_Law. https://t.co/sqLALG9NkO

From our law school to yours, May the 4th be with you! @UofMNLawSchool

@ProfKMCrocker @JCSchwartzProf @MaureenSCarroll I also make lots of comparisons to other sets of rules: sports, board games, your parents, high school. Like: Whether or not you put money under Free Parking has widespread effects on the entire game (including prolonging it).

[William McGeveran @BillMcGev]

@ProfKMCrocker @JCSchwartzProf @MaureenSCarroll I love teaching it. I find it’s important to keep reminding students why the rules matter. This is how they will win cases. And how changing rules can shift power way more than changing substantive law (e.g. constraining class actions or standing).

People always complain about problems of the "two-party system" in the US, but they are blaming the wrong thing. Recent events in Israel, the Netherlands, and now Spain show the severe pathologies in multi-party systems.

I replied to your Xeet with a ReXeet? I guess the X is best pronounced with a "sh" as in Portuguese.

@david__simon Yes, it’s entirely a trademark claim.

There’s no legitimate consumer confusion between Trader Joe’s and its nascent labor union. This should be an easy dismissal under trademark law, including nominative use. Shame on Trader Joe’s. https://t.co/JMCvQYvT73

@ARozenshtein I guess now we know that Friday night is the best time to tweet nerdy law professor questions. We sure can party. Thanks all!

I just noticed that the dissent in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health has three justices listed together and does not name one of them as the author and the others as joining. Is this common?

[Dan Davies @dsquareddigest]

this is absolutely brilliant, I can post as much as I like without ever having to read any of the stuff other people want to say. it's like going to a party and remembering half way through that you are cristopher hitchens

Per Politico: “Michael Macko, a former corporate counsel for Amazon, will be the first head of enforcement for the California Privacy Protection Agency.”
