“We’re going to lose some finer intellectual dexterity, but we’re going to be better systems thinkers." No thank you. This is a batshit comment, and I will not pretend otherwise.

When lawyers tell me that AI use in legal practice is inevitable because clients demand it, all I feel is rage. Fully 90% of our jobs is to tell clients to STFU, and our ethical rules support this. AI is not inevitable, and I wish lawyers would stop pretending otherwise and just do their jobs.

Journalists need to stop describing these incidents in terms implying software has agency and intent. It does not. The people who created a faulty and dangerous product are the ones responsible for whatever happens, and must be held to account, with punitive financial penalties for damage done.

Not enough discussion of the performative cruelty of the bar exam mentions its racist and classist history, and it's always good to see an article that does!

Thank you, @joepatrice.bsky.social for your consistent critique of the NCBE. Sometimes it feels like only @aaselaw.bsky.social and @abovethelaw.com are asking state supreme courts to hold this monopoly accountable. BAR TAKERS DESERVE BETTER THAN THIS MESS. abovethelaw.com/2026/07/the-...

Hearing the roll out of the NCBE's new NextGen bar exam isn't going so well today. This is horrible for the bar takers who have spent time and money preparing for this high-stakes exam. If only there was OVERSIGHT or ACCOUNTABILITY of the NCBE!!!

Ashley M. London @alondon.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

The NCBE is an unchecked gatekeeper with a monopoly on the bar exam. The legal profession should be ashamed to support it. Good luck, bar takers! Pass the bar, then abolish it. 🔥

Sure. But first state Supreme courts need to abolish the bar exam run by the NCBE, which is a far bigger antitrust issue for aspiring lawyers in this country.

I experienced a shooting at a local mall. I have gotten calls from my kid's school putting them on lock down. I have taught students impacted by a school shooting. Active shooter training is part of my job. The circle of gun violence tightens on everyone I know. Do not talk to me about a ballroom.
