Every controversial twitter post ever:

Me: I like cake.
Troll 1: What do you mean "like?"

Troll 2: I don't appreciate you leaving out pies.
Troll 3: Who cares? The planet is burning.
Me: Look, I'm concerned about the planet, too. I just like cake.
Troll 4: Liberals like cake. I can tell you're a pinko.
Troll 5: I had a friend killed by cake once. You don't know what hell you are bringing upon the planet.
Me: Look, I just want a piece of cake.
Troll 1: WTF! "Piece?" What does that mean?
Me: Slice.
Troll 2: I reported you to Twitter for threatening to slice.
Me: I was threatening to slice cake.
Troll 3: Cake are people too!
Me: I just want dessert.
Troll: Actually, if you go back to Marie Antoinette, you are being offense against the poor with your cake metaphor.
Me: No, I really just wanted a slice of cake.
Troll 3: Define "slice."
Dr. Troll: Actually, that's not healthy, with all the sugar.
Me: I'm not eating it all the time. I just want one.
Troll: You are encouraging kids to get Diabetes.
Me: What is wrong with wanting a piece of cake?
Troll 2: Piece or slice? Make up your mind! Just like a liberal not to define terms. Make pie great again
Me: I fail to see why this is troubling. I just want a piece of cake.
Russian Troll: @AOC will take away your cakes.
Me: I don't think she'll care. But can we just stop this discussion?
Troll: Finally see the err of your ways and want pie? Thought so.
Me: Sigh.
Troll 2: Mueller warned us that Russia was interfering in our dessert choices.
Me: I've read the report, and I don't think...
Troll 3: LIB-TARD!!!!
Me: Sigh....never mind. I'll just have ice cream.
Troll 4: You are making cows suffer.
Me: Look it's a democracy. I can have cake.
Troll 2: Actually, we aren't a democracy. We're a republic.

Troll 3: Patronizing Liberal Commie Pinko!
Me: Look, I just want cake. It feels unjust that I have to deal with...
Troll 4: Merrick Garland liked cakes. But no, Kavanaugh likes pies, so we can't have cake now.
Troll 5: Russians are going to take away cake and pie. Baklava is all we'll get.

Me: Chocolate cake it is. Maybe 3 layers....
Troll 1: Layers? That code for background checks?
Me: I'm not discussing the 2nd Amendment....I just want cake.
Troll 2: Liberal. Rather have a cake than a gun!
Troll 14: How do you know cake will make you happy?
Me: Here's empirical literature about joy and cake.
Troll 15: Those are flawed. In ways I won't tell you.
Me: Okay, but they are peer reviewed and sufficiently scientifically proven.
Troll 15: Totally against my experience.
Troll 16: I am reporting your cake pic. It's obscene to us pie people.
Troll 17: Let's start a hashtag: #LPBAntiPie
Troll 18: If he had some practice experience, he'd like pie better.
Troll 19: I find it interesting that you didn't think about other desserts. Maybe showing your bias from the Ivory Tower.
Me: I've made other desserts before.
Troll 20: Some of your best friends are other desserts, are they?
Me: Maybe some chocolate frosting.
Troll 21: Icing.
Me: What's the difference?
Troll 22: Figures. Claiming authority about cake and don't know the difference.
Me: I just wanted cake.
Troll 22: But didn't say you wanted icing!

I'm a law professor.

A cop hid a tape recorder in the ER while I was getting stitched up.

I was illegally searched as a suspect in a crime that didn't happen (and threatened with jail) on the hood of a cop car.

I could go on.

Never talk to the police.
I bet some of you don't know that for a long time in some jurisdictions, cops would have their guns drawn by their side for traffic stops.
Have I seen a cop perjure himself in court? Yes.

"There was no one on the road..."

Really? At noon? On a highway? At lunchtime? You claimed to be doing traffic enforcement? Why were you on a street with no cars? Last ticket you wrote? Huh.

And, there was that study in 2020 that found no decrease in employment related to the earlier stimulus.

This adds some more information, although nothing about age breakdown. But still adds some value in terms of the initial claim in that tweet.

I just finished listening to Simon & Garfunkel's "Mrs. Robinson," and I think they were trying to recruit her in the @CIA. (Thread)
The first stanza is appealing to her sense of religious duty. "And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know." It is a short walk there to "God Bless America" and the CIA.
The second stanza is the background check:
"We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files
We'd like to help you learn to help yourself"

I was, for no particular reason, thinking today about an ENTIRE AND VAST LITERATURE on household reproduction that encompasses many voices across many fields.

#lawtwitter #AcademicChatter
A LOT of those articles, books, and essays are written by WOMEN. So I imagine if I were, say, citing literature in my essay, I would want to be careful to ensure I encompassed it fairly. I might also look at who I am tending to cite in my footnotes.

I can't help but notice that in defending the Bar Exam, @NCBEX and some state BLEs have created a public relations disaster. (Thread)

#Lawtwitter #Barpocalypse #bloodybarpocalypse
How did we get here? Easy.
1. Ignore student health concerns.
2. Imply movement for diploma privilege is just a small group of lazy whiny students.
3. Commingle legitimate anger about being ignored with improper attacks to chill speech about the Bar Exam
4. Tell students they should focus on studying. As if that's possible when your Bar could be canceled at the last minute.
5. Establish draconian search rules for an in person exam.
6. Establish draconian movement rules for an online exam.

Hey @PennLaw, it's a good thing that you gave Professor Wax a sabbatical so she could enhance your brand!

And the @NewYorker was happy to help!

Some highlights on this thread. First quote from Wax: "Why are successful, peaceful, orderly, prosperous, technologically advanced, democratically sound countries so rare and so few, and why do they clump up in one tiny corner of the globe, namely Europe, the Anglosphere?"
(Gosh, I dunno, you never spoke to anyone about colonialism?).

Wax: "I think colonialism as an explanation is just a nonstarter. Colonialism came very late on the scene."
