Patent, trademark, and other IP attorney (some business law, too). I 🖤 rock & roll, punk, cats, & horror, & I will talk your ear off about all of that. I'm not your lawyer. This isn't legal advice. This is Radio Clash.

I am being very poorly supervised. I don't know how they expect to win Employee of the Month. Probably on sheer cuteness. #miloandemmett

This is Milo, 7, the other rescue dude I just got. He's busy looking for food in the kitchen but also likes to cuddle with Emmett in my office. He needs a job title too.

This is Emmett, one of my two new rescue boys. He turns 5 in a few days. He likes to hang out with me in my home office. He needs a job title. I had creat punny titles for my cat but I'm having trouble with dog ones. Suggestions?

Learning to paint and these two little dudes are what is keeping me sane these days. If you can afford to adopt a shelter or rescue animal and love them forever, I highly recommend it. Milo, 7, and Emmett, 5, came from a rescue. They're the sweetest good boys.

Awesome! Just in time for my posts next week that include that Tom Waits example to illustrate right of publicity!
Expect that Waits v Frity-Lay case to be cited in plaintiff briefs and judicial rulings. Also the Bette Midler v Ford case.
You'd think marketing firms would learn, but clearly not.

My favorite personal AI garbage example. It shows Google AI search saying a restaurant doesn't exist when the actual search result just above it proves it does. Sorry for poor screen photo quality. If anyone can fix it without it looking like it's fake, please do.

The word "lawyer" can be spooky. Will we be a blood-sucking vampire who costs a fortune, or a snobby monster who makes you feel stupid with jargon? Don't let the fear of a scary lawyer keep you from getting the intellectual property protection your business needs.

Granted on September 7, 1915, to J.B. Gruelle, the design patent for the Raggedy Ann doll. Many years later, the "real" Annabelle doll of horror movie fame was a Raggedy Ann doll. It's been changed in the movies to avoid copyright and trademark issues and to look scary.

Sometimes my job is funny.
Now I must find a way to work the phrase "plate of intelligence" into conversation.

We had some great discussion about possibilities for entrepreneurial minors. I was impressed with the teens' questions. They are bright, motivated, and attentive. This Young Entrepreneurs Program at the Champaign Public Library rocks. #Champaign

This is the presentation I gave to the young entrepreneurs tonight. I added information about how much it sucks to try to own and run a business when you're too young to sign legally binding contracts and how to deal with that.

Also, they're already trying to intimidate law schools by threatening not to hire any of their graduates if they don't approve of the school's curriculum. Props to the Dean at Georgetown Law for standing up against Edward Martin's threats.

I didn't spend time studying hard in law school and fighting against misogyny my whole life just to not speak out now against the current administration trying to wipe out power and recognition for anyone who isn't a white man. No way.

Can You Get a Patent for Your Idea?
Maybe.
I know, I know, it’s annoying when lawyers give that answer or “it depends,” but there's no “one size fits all” answer with patents. Patentability depends on several factors that are different for each invention.
