Tech nerd, legal geek. I spend waaaaay too much time writing contracts (and deciding if crypto is a security or not). Oh, and I travel a lot. Licensed in California, not Canada, because my post history is confusing.

Oh dear God, even NPR is using "slams" in headlines now. Call me old fashioned, but I much prefer terms like "criticizes" and "rebukes." In fact, I haven't seen any slamming going on, just a few whining tweets and grumbling complaints. This epidemic must be stopped - "slams" is getting out of hand.

Mhmm, now add lawyer on top of that and I'm not even certain that certainty certainly exists

"The concept of using 'p**** so wet' as a rhetorical device in a song is neither original nor unique to Plaintiff..." A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit against Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B over their "WAP" and "Thot Shit" lyrics, and the ruling is hilarious.

Travel really expands your cultural understanding. For example, I never really understood the motivation behind the Spanish slang for testicles until I took this picture.

This is hilarious because they sell "BIG ASS ANTS, APHRODISIAC" on the side of the road in Colombia

@amahnke.bsky.social we listened to so much Lore in the past five weeks of driving that my four year old is now saying "I'm Aaron Mahnke" regularly because he thinks it's funny. He says hi, but he's embarrassed about it

Heaven has no rage like love to Barbie turned, nor hell a fury as a Barbie scorned....

Is there a legal list I'm missing out on? ⚖️ Imo if there is, we should have two: the normal one and one that's just nice weird facts, like how blasphemy is still illegal in several states

Oh no, we're actually very boring people who live vicariously through this kind of drama because it turns out that TV lawyers lied to us

It's not even business hours yet and I've already used this and my other favorite example: COVID as the reason for needing force majeure clause

My body dysmorphia definitely didn't come from Barbie, you weirdos, it came from my older brother telling me I looked like the bad guy with the potbelly from Mulan

Spectacular content. The only thing that can save America is people coming together to shit on the lawyers, and every single generation of them (us) deserves it.

Just a reminder: if you find yourself getting a guy you dislike drunk after a party and walking him into the catacombs under false pretenses with the intent to seal him up behind a brick wall, that's almost definitely illegal and also I don't practice criminal law.

Okay, I guess I *kind of* like British Colombia. I wish I was cool enough to be willing to attempt the local slack line, but I'm intimidated by everyone else in Squamish (even though we're all here for the same reason)

I've been following basically every artist I come across because one of my major clients is a newly-formed board game dev/design co that's going to need art in the next couple of months. It's awesome to see everyone's creations. Happy Portfolio Day!

Finally made it to Banff NP, kind of a dream of mine. I found it covered in tourists. I'm hypocritically judging everyone who paid $21 to park at Lake Louise just to take a picture. Especially these losers, taking a lame selfie
