I'm so humbled that my latest piece, Privacy and the Impossiblity of Borders, is forthcoming in the

In the piece I argue that a robust conception of privacy, essential to the protection and vindication of rights for all people, is incompatible with borders.

Despite being undocumented and formerly unhoused, I’ve bagged a JD, a PhD, and a tenure track job all before turning 30.
Yeah I did that for real.

Starting from community college as well.

It’s insane to me that the people who shout from the rooftops about “OUR DEMOCRACY” have taken this position: unelected bureaucrats can throw the elected president in prison for “mishandling” documents. Does Article 2 mean anything? If so Trump did nothing wrong.

Every so often, I think about leaving academia. Not because I don't like the work, or because I'm not cut out for it. It is because it tries to break you that are difficult to articulate and are even more difficult to stomach. I don't want to leave, but I might have to.
Law profs and others. You must read the complaint against Northwestern (ok not today) by Jonathan “SB-8” Mitchell. It is horrific in every way. It names names, gravely insults my friend

As a former law student, I didn't think it was the professor's job to prepare me for the real world/courtroom life. Just make sure I learn the material in that class, and be accessible to answer my questions when I need help. That's it.

I’ve faced more adversity than most people endure in multiple lifetimes. What I learned is that most of the suffering we inflict provides no useful lessons. It inflicts trauma that we make peace with only by deluding ourselves as to its value, and so we visit it upon others.
This is why they cannot handle adversity, they breakdown, start yelling and become violent. They are being coddled so much that once in the real world they will be destroyed. They will also support more tyranny because they need the government’s “protection”.

My second day of law school, a 3L told me "You don't go to Yale Law School to study law." At the time I thought that statement was the most preposterous shit I ever heard.
Years later, it still is preposterous, but it makes sense. The Ruby v. YLS debate brought that back.

You could be a whole professor with two advanced degrees yet people will still look at your photos and call them "potential mugshots" 😡🤪
If you're not legal, perhaps, we're assessing potential mugshots? They're both you, so they're both great! Besides, only You can judge the Man in the Mirror.
