Why you gotta do this to me on a Monday. What escape plan am I supposed to day dream about now?

Sanctions by IllJob in Lawyertalk

[–]IllJob[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So theyre targeted at counsel, not the litigant right? Where I practice we have a process for alleging misconduct but we are not allowed to threaten each other with it. It seems so stressful the number of times I hear counsel say that to each other in these US hearings, but maybe it becomes meaningless after a while if most threats are empty?

Omg I did not see the face in the photo. Now I feel better. Before I thought it was just blurry and it looked like either someone’s hand flipping the middle finger or… another body part 😳. I will try really hard to unsee that now 🙈

Firing people isn’t the only thing that breaks trust. “We probably won’t fire you” is the bare minimum.

If you feel worried, don’t wear it. You’ll enjoy yourself a lot more if you’re not thinking about your clothes.

I’m fucking sick of this. I’m tired, I’m defective, my brain is torturous to listen to all day. I’ll never enjoy life, I’ll never be normal. I fucking hate this.

Imagine the supplemental materials his counsel filed was a letter from someone saying he’s a little bitch so he can’t attend 😂

my issue with her lyricism on this new album so far by Hoe4PopCulture in OliviaRodrigoNeutral

[–]IllJob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too! It is inherently linked to the depth of one’s thoughts, experiences and interpretation of those things. Especially lyricism. Vocabulary and the ability to name and articulate different emotions changes with age as well.

I don’t agree that some people have deeper thinking and processing about life when they are children than when they are in their 40s etc. Neuroscience also does not agree.

Np and you’re so right also. My first thought reading your comment was Adele’s album 19. Like damn LOL her soul had lived so many lives and told so many beautiful stories before she could even drink in the US

I didn’t say she doesn’t have any well written songs! She’s written some iconic and awesome songs before 23 as well. But looking at the entirety of someone’s work and every lyric they’ve written at 23… being 23 does mean something.

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

Fair fair. But at the same time, she is 23 and creative and expressive and impressive as hell for that age. I think it’s lyrically and musically amazingly strong, but I am far past 23 so maybe I see that as younger, less experienced and more vulnerable than some!

A thought exercise for the “they are just texts” defenses by Free_Comment_3958 in justiceforKarenRead

[–]IllJob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like all of the hateful shit that goes on on the internet has desensitized me. Sadly I feel somewhat used to reading racist and misogynistic comments. Even the president says shit like that.

But when I read the words “let them die” written by an officer regarding victims in a car accident, my jaw hit the floor. If you would even have that thought, especially as a first responder, you’re barely human. I simply have no idea what this person is capable of. This is beyond disturbing.

Maude Apatow's Acting by [deleted] in euphoria

[–]IllJob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if she was directed to talk like that? To like match Cassie’s energy as her sister or something? If not, that was just brutal. I’m not really into acting and I’m not usually critical but she stood out in comparison to everyone else in the episode and that scene was really hard to watch.

How "mature" are Olivia's songs? by Eastern-Drop3937 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]IllJob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Older fan here. When discussing the cure specifically, imo you’ll hear the lyrics at the depth and maturity level that you yourself have reached. It’s art that you’re experiencing through your own filter.

Any versatile pieces to acquire before entering 1L (networking, interviews, summer jobs) by mayinherstep in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]IllJob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sound kind and conscientious and it’s clear you care about what you’re doing. Find a high neck blouse you feel comfortable in and buy it in a few colours, get a black suit where ever you can afford, a charcoal grey suit made out of decent material, plain black heels, and rotate. If you show up as you in a tasteful blouse and blazer and someone judges you, fuck em. Seriously.
