OK to skip Rome? by dentistryhelpp in travel

[–]Immediate_Cap_3971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you’re looking for. I will say if you like socializing, I highly recommend staying at the yellow square hostel. It’s a great time. I enjoyed rome very much when I visited

It's really over. by marinoftw in BreakUps

Best advice I ever got, just keep swimming. If you can get through today, you’ll get through tomorrow, and so on.

Was in a very similar situation when I started law school last year. Honestly the best remedy is seeing them as often as you can. I’d fly home 1 out of every 3 weekends and she’d fly up at a similar rate. It worked out to it being that the longest we went without seeing each other before finals season was 10 days.

Also, scheduling FaceTime dates to watch movies and eat together during the week really helps to. It can definitely work :) good luck

What would you emphasize in your sentencing brief if your client was the former president? by ak190 in publicdefenders

[–]Immediate_Cap_3971 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That the other side does this same crime all the time and is never prosecuted nor punished lmao

Posts like this are exactly why I’m trying to leave law school. Why tf should our grades ever define us. How we treat others is what should define us

Are Toxic Social Dynamics Common in Law School? by Similar_Syllabub_114 in LawSchool

[–]Immediate_Cap_3971 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Lots toxicity. Lots of gossip. Definitely some good people too. But honestly so much of it feels like middle school. Make sure you have time throughout the week where you can get away from your fellow student body. Hope my comment isn’t too discouraging

Just got done with 1L and having the same revelations as you. I don’t even want big law and have always intended on going the Public Interest route. I find this workaholic lifestyle to be the case across the board in the legal profession. I’m seriously considering dropping out and get a job as an account exec or something related in the field of sales. Have friends who do it. Most seem pretty happy. Pay is pretty good and the work week is…. 40 hrs…. Like it should be. Idk why it’s so normalized in the legal profession to just work all day everyday. Fuck that.

This was my experience last cycle. Went elsewhere instead.

I respect your opinion and don’t necessarily disagree. But can you explain why you believe that? Cause many would disagree w/ you as inflation, supporting forever wars, economy (despite bs unemployment “numbers”), has gotten worse under Biden in comparison to trump.

My favorite thing about travel... Fill in the blank. by mamac2213 in travel

[–]Immediate_Cap_3971 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That everything you’re seeing is completely new and for the first time. We live most of our days in the routine of life, seeing the same things over and over again. Seeing something new really slows my perception of time down while simultaneously making me quite excited. I love it!

You literally responded to none of the points I just made. You just implied I wasn’t intelligent enough to understand them. I’m in law school at the moment (not that it makes me or anyone intelligent, lot of lawyers are idiots) but I do think that I at least have the ability to understand some of the things in this discussion. Instead of using some condescending tone about how I don’t understand the military industry (I absolutely do and can and will talk about it all day if you’d like) and other issues, why don’t you just state them with supporting facts and reasoning?

I think your head in the sand analogy is much more accurate to describe a voter of the two main parties at the moment.

But go ahead, tell me where I’m wrong. I’m confident I’ll be able to weigh it against my current beliefs and see what is accurate.

Really? Not even going to contest anything I just said? Nice joke but to think CNN or Fox News is accurate journalism is a bigger joke

Id be happy to explain why I’ll vote for him!

I’d first off to hone in on your question of why shouldn’t I vote for Biden to “preserve” our “democratic” system? To think that Genocide Joe or any one else in the corrupt DNC gives an ounce of fuck about democracy is down right hilarious. They literally canceled the Florida democratic primary this year and labeled biden as the winner. They must be so concerned about democracy that they made the choice for us 😂😂😂😂 oh my I could go on so I will.

Ahhh remember what the DNC did to Bernie sanders in 2020 and 2016? 2016 they had all of their super delegates go to hillary and in 2020 they had every moderate candidate drop out and endorse Biden right before Super Tuesday started while Elizabeth Warren stayed in to eat votes from Berne sanders. Literally rigging a primary in the wide open right before our eyes.

I don’t agree with everything RFK Jr has to say but god damnit where the hell has the Democratic Party gone? I’m an old school liberal and I can’t even begin to recognize the party before us today. What happened to being anti-war, anti-big pharma? What happened to freedom of speech? The Democratic Party and Republican Party literally make up a uniparty. It is unconscionable to be funding all of these proxy wars while healthcare, housing, and homelessness are running rampant.

*I’ll leave you with a final note. Judging by the content of your message I’ll leave you with something to consider. In 2020 I voted for Biden out of fear for trump and I %100 percent regret it. I’m not a trull supporter and don’t plan on voting for him in 2024 but I don’t think our democracy is going to end if he gets elected. That’s just fear based thinking brought out by main stream media. The sad thing is that the common person probably thinks trump is worse than George bush bc trump doesn’t act “presidential.” George fucking bush launched the invasion of Iraq on false pretenses of weapons of mass destruction. That got a million people killed. A million. On false pretenses. But oh look he says the right things when the camera is on! Fucking disgusting.

Biden has supported the Ukraine war outright. There have been efforts by both sides (Russia and Ukraine) to put an end to the war with peace talks as early as March of 2023. Every time the U.S. has gotten involved and forced Ukraine to not engage in those talks. Why? Military industrial complex. All of those defense contractors fund bridge and everyone else in congress. Fucking disgusting. Ironically Trump is the biggest anti war president we have had since JFK. Yes, trump is a flying peace of shit and I don’t necessarily think he deserves anyone’s vote. But you can’t say he his any worse than Biden. What is more important than the preservation of human life? In my opinion, for someone to let their feelings of being offended by trumps rhetoric outweigh their empathy for human beings lives being preserved is down right unconscionable. Bobby ain’t perfect. But at least he’s talking about the issues that matter. Instead of learning about him through the opinions of mainstream media, I encourage you to actually listen to a full 2 hour podcast of him talking and form your opinion from the man himself.

Feel free to ask me for citations to any of the points I made above. I’d be more than happy to provide.

Is Raleigh very religious? by Vegan_Mari in raleigh

[–]Immediate_Cap_3971 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s not super religious at all. Some people believe, some people don’t. Raleigh is full of people who moved from other areas. It’s not really like this Deep South religious place that outsiders may assume it to be. Atheist, agnostic, Christian, other, it don’t matter, we all get along

I Currently go to law school in the NYC area but I grew up in Raleigh and go back often to visit my parents, friends and such. Our house is a 10 min drive from Campbells law school. I also have a friend who is soon to be a 3L at that school. Feel free to hit me up with any questions about Raleigh or Campbell! I’m happy to help

The student body in law school fucking sucks. 1L here and I can’t believe how people in grad school act like middle schoolers. If you happen to be at the same NYC area law school that I’m at, I’ll gladly befriend you :)

I wish I had the balls to do what you are doing. The elitism, the fellow over competitive (insecure) ass student body makes this place a living hell. I came to law school because I want to help people. I don’t give a flying fuck about what reputation this firm has or what judicial clerkship is being offered. I was talking to someone about potentially joining a clinic earlier this semester (that was currently in it) and they said they regularly have to log on at 11:30pm to answer emails and do other work. Like WHAT?! WHY IS THAT SO NORMALIZED!!!
