While many will be working from home in the coming weeks, there are still ways to perform some important pro bono work. Give @ABAesq Free Legal Answers a try. Lawyers can answer legal questions online from individuals in need. abafreelegalanswers.org/ #helpasmanyaswecan

Today the @StateBarCA Trustees voted AGAINST "Forming & Appointing a New Working Group to Explore Development of a Regulatory Sandbox" despite the #ATILS efforts. To be clear, they voted against EXPLORING THE DEVELOPMENT of the sandbox, NOT EVEN A SANDBOX ITSELF. Shameful.

An African-American female agent who does black-ops. A top-secret government-issued suit made of synthetic melanin. A military operation gone bad in Bamako. Oh my goodness. Don't miss this fabulous short story: "Fraught Couture" by @neildrumming thisamericanlife.org/681/esc…

@chgamez says "Innovation is not a strategy but you need an innovation strategy." Strategy = knowing where and when to play + knowing how to say no. In other words, "how might we overcome delivery hurdles?" #makelawbetter
