Being an attorney is saying “But after this case settles I will have a little more free time” over and over again until you die.

[Barred and Bearded @RileeDHarrison]

Litigation is wild because you show up every day to do your job and at the same time there is another person who also shows up to their job every day whose job is to actively prevent you from doing your job. And people wonder why lawyers are stressed out.

Your music publishing income might feel like it's letting you down but it's important to remember:

- Publishing is a hit driven business
- Longevity and catalogue depth are the equalizers

Just like anything else it will take time and consistency to build a lifetime of residuals

I received a series of rejections this week. It hurts, i won’t deny it. When I started to internalize them, I called one of my bros and he helped me remember that I’m so much more than any opportunity or accomplishment. In short it’s okay to let your folks know when youre down ❤️

Good things come from releasing product or dropping content.

If it’s not good, feedback will allow you to grow.

Letting things sit on your hard drive forever isn’t the answer.

After five years of litigation, the Radio Music Licensing Committee and the Irving Azoff-founded performance rights org Global Music Rights have reached a conditional agreement. https://t.co/2XNVX6b83p

I think people misunderstand the difference between getting advice and asking someone to give away intellectual property. Creatives have to know the difference because there’s a bag that lies in between that grey area.

Artists: make sure your attorneys are getting producer agreements done so they can be paid in full for their work

@biglawgothgf If you're still looking for help on the project (assuming its IP related), I'd love to help!

[MY @myaithomas]

THIS! Although, truthfully they can stop you for anything minor anyway!

PPP loans were created in 2020.

Within 1.5 years, over 80% of them have been forgiven, totaling $600+ billion.

Student loans started around 1958-1965.

60+ years later & .6% of student loan debt has been forgiven.

No one asked how we would pay for business loan forgiveness.

This week, the U.S. attorney's office uncovered one of the largest modern slavery operations in the US, right here in South Georgia.

@chron His lawyers responded to the complaints filed like every defendant does in the beginning... please chill. This just means there will be litigation, and doesn’t necessarily reflect his personal feelings 🤧

BREAKING: Canada has banned conversion therapy. Bill #C4 received Royal Assent today after unanimous votes in both the House of Commons & Senate.

This bold action sends a resounding message of support to LGBTQ youth across the world.

And you’re using my tax dollars to run for higher office.

Gun violence in MO skyrocketed after your party voted to relax gun laws in 2007 and preempted cities from passing gun control on the local level. The blood is on your hands, Boo. #SueBully
