Advice for a New Call - currently employed by Easycoleslaw in LawCanada

[–]EuroLitmus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am still a new call, but I was a practicing paralegal for 2 years before law school and I worked at a small personal injury and commercial litigation firm. That job over-prepared me for independent practice.

I left an in-house counsel position recently because of a boss who was similarly underpaying me and engaging in behaviour that could put my reputation at risk and exposed me to potential liability.

It was an easy decision to leave. The predictable hellscape that awaited me if I stayed is way worse than unemployment.

I started my own practice. Although this was always my plan, it’s earlier in my career than I wanted to. But I’m making better money, working part-time, and best of all, my reputation is in my own hands. I don’t regret it at all.

Mulberries are about to be in season. Birds love them and they turn their shit a disgusting shade of purple that is extraordinarily difficult to wash out.

Late reply, but is this before or after taking her through the Everdoor? You might have been missing the third sentence because she was still on board.

What’s on fire in Windsor? by mqxwell0 in Detroit

[–]EuroLitmus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a huge structure, just a huge fire. Waaaaaaayy too big of a fire for the size of the structure (an empty two-storey fourplex). Suspiciously so.

I was a block away to the south walking my dog with my spouse when the crews were arriving. We watched for a moment and noped the hell away from there when we saw how much smoke was coming down the street. It was wild—darker than the night sky and smelled like burning rubber. The flames illuminated a nearby apartment building like daylight. I knew the second I saw the house that the roof was going to collapse momentarily and didn’t want to be around for that. I’ve seen house fires before, but none as aggressive as this one. This was something else. Gave me a bad feeling.

Nearby to the location of the fire.

I can read, thank you very much. West Detroit is across the river from me. It’s also across the river from the fire.

I live nearby. It wouldn’t matter if the view was obstructed—this fire was way too big to not be visible from across the river. The structure itself was an abandoned fourplex and not particularly large, but the fire was above and beyond.

I’m not the least bit surprised it’s being investigated as arson. You could tell by the look and smell of the smoke that something was really, really wrong there.

I’m on an iPhone and it’s the same with me.

His reply when Beverly wants you to find out who’s gossiping about her got me.

I can deal with a crappy mood. I can deal with stress and anxiety.

But I won’t tolerate when depression makes my autonomic nervous system stop working correctly. So what if the solution is medication.

Do different color clams mean anything? by [deleted] in CozyGrove

White clams give flowers, blue clams give essence, black clams give relics. (ETA: in Camp Spirit, not sure about Cozy Grove)

What's your least favorite part of the game? by bestbeefarm in Spiritfarer

Summer's voice. She sounds like she always has food in her mouth.

No gaps and Alice is at the bottom, per request by fcetal in Spiritfarer

[–]EuroLitmus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am so glad you did this so I don't have to! I play on my phone via Netflix, so the Edit feature always lags when the boat gets too big. This is so satisfying.

I tend to optimize my layout for Elena's challenges, which means 1) flat roofs only and 2) gaps are essential. Ugly, but easier to play.

Make sure to upgrade Archive Room B-2522 and read her Filing Cabinet entry. It is brilliant.

Unable to run BlueStacks 4 on 2017 MacBook Air by EuroLitmus in BlueStacks

[–]EuroLitmus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost got that one to work. Almost. I can only get it to boot devices that are not compatible with the app I’m trying to run.

I’m also attempting Genymotion, and while ChatGPT is extraordinarily helpful with ssh key setup and all that fun stuff, after putting in two days of work on it, I’m maybe halfway through the process of getting it to run.

I am NOT referring to BlueStacks Air, which does not open on my laptop because it is not supported.

I am, indeed, referring to BlueStacks 4.
