Everyone is buzzing about the amicus brief with 45 connect-the-dot famous trademark drawings.
The drawings are fun: https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/22/22-148/255412/20230223142237872_Supreme%20Court%20Amicus%20Brief%20pdfA.pdf

Let's just say that filing a brief that proposes a monetary transaction with each Justice and law clerk, by name, is... not something I'd do.
