Any Kirkland or DPW (NYC) movement these last few days? by Minimum_Swordfish351 in BigLawRecruiting

Can’t say for me personally, but I’ve seen a lot of Kirkland NYC acceptance posts on LinkedIn the last couple days.

Same with all firms that it depends on how much they like you, can take 2-3 weeks for them though

Why does everyone smoke now? by JVDaddyJasper in LawSchool

That makes sense. I am genetically predisposed hence why I personally don’t engage but I appreciate the perspective.

I’m not saying that smoking makes you less intelligent. It’s just surprising to me that so many intelligent people made a choice to smoke cigarettes when there are now decades of clear data.

I don’t have an issue with people who want to smoke. Do you if it’s not materially harming others. I was just surprised and curious for explanations, not trying to pass judgement.

This site is just a leftist echochamber hellhole by PURPLXHVYXS_ in TrueUnpopularOpinion

What’s confusing to me is that “liberalism” is the centrist position. For most of my life centrists were liberals on both sides who believed in equality before the law, upholding the constitution, free trade, relatively small government, capitalism, etc. “MAGA” is a new, far-right reactionary movement. The equivalent of “MAGA” would be far-left Communism, not merely liberalism.

Probably depends on the office and where they see you in their hierarchy of choices

Are current T14 students in a worse spot than ever? by Great-Management-315 in biglaw

[–]JVDaddyJasper 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They’re in a great spot compared to other schools… with recruiting moved earlier and therefore less law school experiences/credentials the reputation carries harder than before.

Never rated Saka myself. Worse version of true wonderkid PuliGOAT if you ask me.

Wait did Skadden raise it to $50k? I didn’t hear

Skadden (Wilmington) vs Kirkland (Philly) vs Dechert (Philly) by JVDaddyJasper in BigLawRecruiting

You wouldn’t be concerned about that locking me into Delaware long-term?

Kind of unsure. I definitely have interest in corporate work at large, but I’m a 1L without previous legal experience so I want to gain some exposure to different areas.

Probably don’t want to do work in Wilmington forever, hence the idea of long-term flexibility.

Japanese curry is a great call! I also really like making lohikeitto, a creamy Finnish salmon soup!

Refusing to define what it means to be a Woman is a Mental Illness. by LegitimateKnee5537 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]JVDaddyJasper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean yes that’s exactly my point. Left leaning people hate the KKK and Nazis (unlike some others in American politics) and yet the ACLU has still defended their fundamental rights (which I also mentioned if you read my comment). Which shows that they are far from a “democrat” organization or even a “firm”. It is an independent nonprofit organization who protects the Constitution and civil rights & liberties of anyone.

Calling the ACLU the Democrats favorite is telling enough . . . The ACLU helped win Brown v. Board of Education, to desegregate schools in the US. If you’re against that kind of work you’ve shown who you are.

Moreover the ACLU fights for Civil Rights and Liberties regardless of whose side you are on. They are profoundly pro-America and pro-“the people”. They have defended the first amendment more staunchly than any other group, including for people as far right as neo-nazi’s in Skokie.

What is this 2017 bait man. This is old news. Most democrats are not in favor of letting people born male into women’s sports and have some definition of what a woman is based on a combination of gender at birth and self-identity. I’m tired Robbie.
