For those who don't know me, I'm a lawyer in Nashville doing domestic and international trademark work, tech transactions and privacy work. I particularly like working with media publishers and software developers. Happily married dog mom. It's nice to meet you.

Their articles yesterday about Tr*mp’s involvement in the alleged cease-fire were so pathetically unsourced and parroting that my jaw dropped when I read them.

TN's AG will file his amicus shortly I'm sure.

Meta was tired of getting dinged with fines from the data protection authority in Ireland, so it staffed the office with friendlies.

Big piece in POLITICO asking about the independence of Ireland's process of appointing people to its Data Protection Commission. There is deep unease in Brussels about Ireland appointing a former Meta lobbyist as Meta's watchdog. Now questions about who was involved.

Last night the conversation going on behind me in the Dublin pub where I had dinner was about how absurd it is for ChatGPT to try sound like an Irish person and I’ve been smiling about that ever since.

I adored the weirdness of Star Me Kitten but I always attach Nightswimming to our senior beach trip as it was on the radio at 3 am while we were still driving to the Outer Banks and we were all just so chill and happy.

I think I’m going to put an application in for the Wicca to get a float and then have it denied and sic the ACLU on our city manager.

There was one in the Christmas parade in our little town last year. I was absolutely horrified. This year I will be ready.

We had friends from England staying with us last week and yesterday I went into the guest bathroom for the first time since they left and discovered they left us these. DY.ING.

My husband and I got married in that spot because we met at a Friends of Shelby Pickin' Party. We did a subtle '40s travel theme on account of Cornelia Fort. I learned a lot about her. I love / am infuriated by her story.

He needs to be tried.

Of course he doesn't. He's trying to make everyone else believe it so he can do mass arrests with impunity.

He's also making this up out of thin air.

😆 It's a spin-off of a great series, and the funnest part is going to be watching how they get from St. Thomas Hospital to Donelson in three minutes, but maybe Nashville's dispatchers can learn a thing or two.
