Really nice Tiny Desk this week. Joshua Redman is a great saxaphonist, but Gabrielle Cavassa kinda steals the show here in my humble opinion.

I think it's funny that many people have told me CoSo doesn't use quoting, bc they want to avoid a "subtweeting" kind of culture. 'Cause I'm being subtweeted all over the place. Even J. And yeah, I haven't used CoSo that much, and I'd like to use it more, but just trying to figure out how things work and why. If I've annoyed anyone, I apologize.

Just incredibly fascinated by the various forms of social media and how they each have such unique (and powerful) cultures. LinkedIn is so diff from FB which is diff than IG which is wildly diff than Match.com which is nothing like Twitter, or Snap, or Discord, or Reddit. Obviously, CoSo ain't Twitter, and that's a good thing. But could CoSo be better with quoting? I still think it would.

@th3j35t3r I'm curious what others might think of that idea?

On another note, @th3j35t3r, if you really want this place to be the best alternative for Twitter and entice users to leave there, you should figure out how to add a feature that's equivalent to the quote-tweet. It would def improve the UX, and you might find tweeters, ahem, flocking here.

@Bix Many of the craziest stories I have and can never share with anyone involve representing people in family court matters. Unlike many corporate lawyers, when my name comes up and I'm appointed to represent someone, I do it myself rather than hand it off. I've done several. I had a Dad on a TPR case that went all the way to trial. Two full days. Truly worthy of a book or a movie. But it's all under seal, bc minors involved.

Twitter having some sort of outage. I was told by Tweet Deck, the web app and my phone app that I'd hit my daily Twitter limit and couldn't send anymore. The limit is 2,400 per day. I'd sent maybe 20. Down detector shows this.

Via Twitter, @ml8_ml8: Can you even imagine the amount of coordination DA Willis has had to do with other Federal and State jurisdictions just to make sure they aren't overlapping or breaking each others' investigations and prosecutions? Kind of boggles the mind.

Once upon a time I took my dog in for a "K-9 Good Citizen" class where the dogs were supposed to be trained to be nice. Turned out, the class had nothing to do with training dogs and everything to do with training the humans who owned them.
