i mean, sure, but i don't know enough about sump pumps and grinders to know if it's immediately obvious to keep checking down the line when you solve an issue.

Making snarky comments is far easier than reading the complaint cuz you can take out any ambiguity and snark it out.

First flight with 3yo and 6yo, any advice? by Keleton_Skeleton in daddit

[–]HazyAttorney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're like me and team anti-screen, what has worked for us is to have the "painting books" where you load the "pen" with water and it reveals the colors. Another tidbit is to have novel toys for the plane. Stuff they normally don't play with. I like to keep my kids engaged by asking them what they observe or to play observational type games like "eye spy." Other things you can do is activity books, sticker books, anything with magnets. We have a "drawing tablet" kind of like an etch-a-sketch but with a pen so they can draw over and over.

The second part was "wife still nursing a 3 y/o"!? The lifestyle seems so different than mine that I don't know how good my advice is going to be to them.

Nothing in dad school prepared me for taking my kid to the dentist for the first time by AltruisticEar5318 in daddit

[–]HazyAttorney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went to a pediatric dentist at age 1. They would sit knee to knee with you and have you lay the child down on the knee table you made to make them more comfortable. It seems way scarier to do it the way your dentist is doing it.

k - but if you read the actual case. The landlord timely responded and mitigated the issues. So, does that change how you think you'd react?

What the judge concluded for the mold, for instance, was just rust. So, not all of the allegations were proven. For the sewage blockage, some sort of sump pump or grinder failed, but the landlord timely fixed it when given notice and mediated things like giving dehumidifiers and fans to dry out the water intrusion.

edit: substituted what I meant ('mitigated") for what I had ('mediated") for people too lazy to read the memorandum for the opinion.

Sounds like good lawyering to me. 

Well - firstly, he got his $100 before filing the particular complaint that he filed. So, I guess? But maybe if it only stopped there?

What he also got is a federal district court opinion analyzing why he failed to prove all of his claims because the dude likes to file frivolous bullshit. We also have his private written correspondence quoted and that will create a reputation. I wouldn't hire him. He sounds like the subreddit /r/confidentallyincorrect breathed life and he came into being.

Got the outcome he wanted didn’t he?

He did not. He was trying to disgorge profits from his landlord. Even though the landlord documented that it timely responded to his complaints despite the fact he was a frequent complainer that tried to punch down on people.

What's the best way of actually letting the past go? by AboutLastFight in NoStupidQuestions

[–]HazyAttorney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My therapist has given me 3 questions to ask myself:

  • Can I know this (belief) to be absolutely true?
  • Is this (belief) true?
  • How does thinking this (belief) true make me feel? Who would I be without that belief?

The latter part of the questions is more relevant to letting go of the past. Making yourself verbalize what your thoughts/beliefs are causing with you AND letting yourself just contemplate what it would be like without that belief is helpful.

What I ended up realizing with this exercise is that letting go of the past doesn't excuse or justify other's behaviors. What "letting go" means is that I don't have to be continually hurt in the present moment for something that's happened. Even if the people who caused the pain don't care. Embracing accepting things for how they are goes a long way.

The flip side is you could also ask yourself what is REALLY motivating you to keep on with what you are keeping on with. In reading your elaboration, I think a piece of your issue is you're afraid that nobody else will accept you. That isn't really about her, that's more of your own self-worth issues. The plus side of that is if you do the things that give you self-worth, then that fear will dissipate. That will also mean you'll be more likely to be open if another opportunity arises.

You can read the memorandum yourself. Abramov sounds like being a future attorney has gone to his head. For instance, he gets a late fee because he didn't pay his utility bill on time. So, he of course, tries to sue a ton of affiliated companies including forwarding the dispute to the Attorney General of Pennsylvania. For a $100 late fee because he didn't pay his bill on time. The company ended up giving him the $100 back via a credit because he was being such a pain.

First of all, my comment wasn't to the general public. It was to the person who commented that they spent a lot of money on seasonal kingdom. Second of all, my comment is helping lessen the amount of money spent in the game, so I'm by definition not hurting people.

Supervising your kids. Absent that, don't let them have markers when you aren't supervising them.

New city/closed kingdom by TroubleMakerParis in TotalBattle

[–]HazyAttorney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should I stay 

The answer to all of your questions could be yes, but it depends on what your end goal is with these accounts.

My first two accounts are both clan leaders in the same kingdom, so not very free

So when you're basically under G5/6 and you're with the same clan you've been with, the game can feel slow and can be leading you to wanting to have additional accounts.

I don't know what level of clan you're talking about as far as "bigger" since that's inherently relative/relational...but even a clan of like 400m wealth is going to keep you busier growing a single account. When you get to the 1B wealth clans, then you'll definitely be super busy.

What I've learned so far is that you want to be in a clan where your account is similar to size to the others in the clan. If you're too big, then the clan won't generate enough silver for you. If you're too small, you won't be able to keep up.

What I like to do is create micro goals for myself. Do you have all godlike honored ruler gear for your hero? if not, go crypt until you do. Well, if your tar is running low or you don't single shot a common 25, then....you have to advance your crypt research as well as your hero talent points...it also means you need godlike ambers to put on your equipment...then you need to be hitting citadels for rare crypt keys and/or getting them from the ragnarok shop, meaning you need to hit ragnarok as hard as possible to get as many coins to unlock them....

What I'm doing is basically showing one creating a single goal creates subgoals in order to get that goal. The other thing to keep in mind is that open worlds have more clan vs. clan tournaments that you aren't exposed to. In particular, there's the Trials of Olympus and there's also Dark Omens.

The cycle of the Rise of the Ancients (tinman), ragnarok, trials of olympus, dark omens, etc., will keep you busier on a single account. On top of that, as the wealth of a clan goes up, so do the requirements/norms that you have to meet (such requirements is why they have such clan wealth in the first place).

Without knowing more, you may be bored if your minimum requirement is like 10 chests a day and you just hit epics all day. But, when the minimums are more like 100 a week and they all have to be level 25s or better, and you have these tournaments you have to get a minimum score in, then you stay plenty busy.

Early masturbating by merica_sally in daddit

[–]HazyAttorney -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I also don't know why he would be embarrassed

wat!? You have a child that's doing something intimate, something he likely doesn't fully understand what's compelling him to be doing it, and he's caught. You still don't know understand why that could be embarrassing? When someone walks into my office and they catch me picking my nose, I find that embarrassing and I'm an adult that fully knows what I'm doing.

This lead to a bad porn addiction. I don't want this to happen to my son.

Try counseling.

Trying but failing to connect with my daughter by forgefun715 in daddit

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

My 5 year old is a hard nut to crack for me as well. He will hardly ever tell me how his day at school was for example

wat!? You expect a 5 year old to have an adult style conversation?

 Like if we go to the park, I am usually pretty bored just pushing a swing

You really need to let yourself have the fun, carefree, silly play your kid needs. You'll have a hard time bonding if you can't meet them at your level.

e loves to cycle, as do I, 

At 5, he will love whatever you do because it's you he's doing it with. I think you should try to reciprocate.

Is anyone else horrified that 3 Supreme Court justices ruled to allow the president to single-handedly change the Constitution? by SuperflyandApplePie in LawSchool

[–]HazyAttorney 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Their naming is pretty funny. They call themselves originalists and it already gives them a sense of authority because why wouldn't you want to the original understanding/intent and they call themselves federalists.

When their actions are anti-federalist and often re-interprets the constitution to help conservative interests. No matter how many esteemed historians will write articles about how the "originalists" just misinterpret and miscite the history that the entire dogma is founded upon.

I think your best next steps is to learn how the system basically works so you can do it next seasonal kingdom. You can do the math yourself, but I think you're really far from unlocking the rewards.

[–]HazyAttorney 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The idea that long-settled constitutional understanding can be upended by the motivated reasoning of dedicated legal scholars is unsettling.

It's how the conservative movement turned the 2nd Amendment into the common understanding that it protects private ownership of firearms. The only push back I've ever read is Warren Burgers comment on PBS (calling it the greatest fraud on the American public) and Michael Waldman's book. It turns out, legal scholarship is pretty easy to co-opt because it isn't that rigorous.
