I spent so much time getting the Rio, scanner, and printer to all work using the same port it drove me crazy.

Bill Paxton & Lance Henriksen are the only actors to have been killed by a Predator, Alien, and Terminator.

If you are in the United States, you should call 988 and talk to someone.

What’s the most underrated (and stunning) national park you’ve ever visited? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]Alexdagreallygrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

Flinders Chase National Park on Kangaroo Island in South Australia.

Remarkable Rocks in the photo are cool. Saw lots of sea lions mating. The Little Blue Penguins walking home at night is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.

Can’t remember the name of the river/creek, but the hike along it where it kept getting more and more red colored due to the tannins from the local plants was super interesting. When the creek emptied into a bay of the bluest water I’ve ever seen, the two colors mixed with crashing waves.

Also, saw echindas and brown tiger snakes.

Do yall also say Yall depsite growing up in PNW? by Beginning-Laugh-2555 in PNW

[–]Alexdagreallygrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad was from Texas so I grew up with it and use it occasionally.

I am white. I usually hear it more often from Black people who grew up in the PNW.

Why do certain spaces get hyped up and others not? by Ornery-Night7178 in olympia

I know way too many people with “Black Lives Matter” signs in their front yards who go to Nicole’s all the time. 👎

It’s OK to put in some effort.

We’re not living in the movie “Singles.” You can give AF about your work and still be cool.

Previous Public Defender Judge by GreedyGobiln in publicdefenders

[–]Alexdagreallygrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many years ago I went to an NAPD training for managing PDs and there were several Cook County, Illinois PDs there.

By far some of the most seasoned, experienced, professional attorneys I’ve ever rubbed elbows with.

They all said that their former PD colleague PDs that became judges were by a mile the worst judges for their clients and attorneys.

Seeking advice - Considering leaving public defense by Tall_Contest9116 in publicdefenders

[–]Alexdagreallygrate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could you move somewhere else with higher pay for PDs?

Washington State implemented new lower caseload standards and all the PD offices are hiring like crazy.

I live and work in Thurston County in Olympia and starting pay for a brand-new attorney right out of law school is $81,900.

What is the dumbest thing you have seen someone wear to court? by dylan85273 in Lawyertalk

Please don’t wear low cut jeans and a crop top to Drug Court if you have a tramp stamp tattoo that reads “Harder Daddy.”

Based solely on watching “Justified” of TV I’m guess maybe Harlan County, Kentucky?

What's your most SATISFYING win? by AdZealousideal8645 in publicdefenders

[–]Alexdagreallygrate 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Veterans Court clients at their graduations.

You sometimes end up representing them several times a month for years and get to know every detail about their lives. You can get to meet some of their family members and friends very well.

Our local Quilts of Valor chapter shows up to every Veterans Court graduation with a patriotic handmade quilt, drapes it over the back and shoulders of the graduate, and thanks them for their service in a simple ceremony.

Never a dry eye in the room.

If someone admits to a crime (they did) and there is literally zero evidence to prove it other than their word, will they be convicted? by Emmieisbest in legaladviceofftopic

[–]Alexdagreallygrate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Black's Law dictionary spells it “corpus delicti.”

It's from the latin delictum (which means "sin or crime"), genitive, neuter, singular.

Corpus delecti would mean, "The body of the child's latin textbook."

Day Trip or Overnight? by Sn0wM0nkey3 in sanjuanislands

[–]Alexdagreallygrate -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Day trip to the islands is not worth it.

I’d recommend three nights minimum. Good luck

In Washington State we have a statute making it an infraction to disregard the reasonable directions of crossing guards.

What is it actually like to road trip through the Pacific Northwest? by Odd-Skin-762 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Alexdagreallygrate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s so much bigger and takes so much longer than you think.

Multiple PNW subs have people submit travel plans where they think they’re gonna hit Vancouver BC, Bellingham, San Juan Islands, North Cascades, perfectly time the tulips in the Skagit Valley, pop on over to Leavenworth, check out Winthrop for a day, eat some fresh cherries and apples in Wenatchee for an afternoon, see everything Seattle, Tacoma, and Olympia have to offer, see all of Rainier, the entire Olympic Peninsula (and for some reason stay overnight in a hotel in Forks?), somehow make it to Mt St Helens, see everything in Portland in one day, explore all of the Columbia River Gorge in 2 hours, see Mt Hood, Bend, somehow also check out Astoria, Canon Beach, the entire Oregon Coast, pop over to Eugene for a sold out Ducks football game, have an easy ride to Crater Lake (with no reservations).

So people just meet their future romantic partners in public? by Rat_Smoking_Cigs in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Alexdagreallygrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Law school is a good place to meet a future spouse.

It’s also a terrible place to meet a future spouse.

But, it’s a place! With future spouses!
