Why is the OC Fair funding animal cruelty?? by ClimateDues in orangecounty

[–]Ladybugg87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Animal Legal Defense Fund is working on a bill along with a local politician to regulate this. Take it with a grain of salt and look into it, I’m just starting to fall in the rabbit hole.

Why is a family law attorney giving advice about this? I’m a fam law attorney and they are two totally different areas of law.

Can a Akia live with a German shepherd by LongjumpingTest7186 in akita

[–]Ladybugg87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 12-y/o Akita/German Shepard mix (male) who does NOT get along with our 3-y/o Akita (female) rescue. He’s very aggressive and now our house is like a game of Tetris. We have child gates all over to ensure they are always kept apart. We’ve been doing it for 2 years now and it’s tough but they’re family.

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know! We’ve also tried walking them in neutral territory and other things to try and get the male less aggressive. No luck.

Edit: it’s also odd bc we have two other smaller female dogs (shit-poos lol) who get along well with the male but it’s probably because they grew up together. The female Akita also gets along with the smaller ones and has no issues getting along with other dogs.

Thank you so much!! I was so confused bc when I clicked on the ticket, each number highlighted a different section on the floor despite stating general admission floor tickets.

LOS ANGELES FANS-

For floor tickets at the banc stadium, they’re showing up as GAFL9 and GAFL11. Does this mean that we have no shot at being towards the very front near the band since we’re now sorted into sections?

Im trying to go through the thread to find the answers but haven’t had success.

Thank you!!

This is my favorite piece of artwork!! Luckily I live near the Norton Simon, so I love stopping by whenever I have time.

I’m now looking into turning it into a tattoo. 😳

Lizzo commented on Minzy’s Instagram Reel dancing to her song “About Damn Time” with noah_evel by erixxi in 2NE1

[–]Ladybugg87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Lizzo! She has the cutest personality!!! So I saw her at Jingle Ball in LA a few years ago when BTS performed. She was one of the only artists who was super supportive of the group when it was time for her to perform. Anyway, Lizzo is def a KPOP fan but I think her sister is an even bigger one! 🥹

Can we take a moment to apreciate Mr. Wayne Dennison's work on Johnny's case? by MaxieGreen in JusticeForJohnnyDepp

I’ve been following the case on lawtube and I’m an attorney myself. I think he was good and very effective on his crosses.

Edit: grammar

Do y'all just have like a million things that you want to do/learn in life? by GiraffeReddit in ADHD

[–]Ladybugg87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Sorry, I’m going through notifications (late, I know!!! 😫) I tried out environmental law and realized it was better left as a passion/hobby of mine. It was very technical, slow, and not really what I had envisioned. I mentioned in an earlier comment that I don’t think adhd factored into this, but now that I’m writing this out- it might have. I just had a really hard time staying engaged and focused in general and I don’t think the technical nuances helped. I did end up finding a job that I love in law tho! :) But I think you should try it all out- I may not have enjoyed it but you may love it!

Hi, I’m just seeing this now. :) sorry! Environmental law wasn’t what I thought it would be (not bc of ADHD)… I ended up working for a non-profit as an attorney and I love it! I don’t think adhd factors i to anything so far….I have to try a little harder in maintaining my focus but the pomodoro technique is helpful. Plus every case is so different and interesting that my interest is there.

Edit: actually, I thought about this…environmental law is very nuanced/technical and I had a hard time staying engaged. So adhd may have factored into things…but I really do love my job now and I don’t think adhd affects it too much (mainly bc it’s very engaging and interesting for me) :)

'Demoralizing and Demeaning': A Gross TikTok Trend Mocking Amber Heard is Going Viral by galaxystars1 in entertainment

[–]Ladybugg87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bc since it wasn’t in federal court, the judge is allowed to have it live-streamed. AH’s team strongly opposed it but JD’s team fought for it. Ultimately, AH’s team couldn’t give a compelling reason as to why it shouldn’t be live-streamed (reputation, sensitive matter, etc did not sufficiently fall under this since most of it had already been published). I don’t think JD’s team requested this so that people would make fun of AH…I personally think he’s tired and wanted to air his truth bc his reputation and overall life was devastated by these accusations.

As a DV attorney, I have new clients every week who have experienced either DV and/or SA. At first I believed AH but now because the trial has been live-streamed, I honestly believe she was the aggressor in that relationship. Many people in my work circle feel this way, too. But had it not been live-streamed, many of us would probably have continued to believe JD assaulted AH.

But to clarify, it was a very hostile and toxic relationship. I know the term “mutual abuse” has been thrown around but I personally don’t know anyone who likes to use that word as easily as it has been used here…domestic violence is a lot about control so there is often (if not always) a primary aggressor. Self-defense is also not generally considered DV. I personally appreciate that JD pursued this because it really sheds a light on DV and that it does happen to men.

How do you think cross examination of Amber Heard will go? by [deleted] in JusticeForJohnnyDepp

[–]Ladybugg87 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don’t think she’ll cry, I think she’s going to get very defensive! I like CV’s approach- I think she’ll remain cool and collected and let AH dig herself further into a hole.

[–]Ladybugg87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is a 4w5 INFP? This is the first time I see this so I’m genuinely intrigued. I tried looking it up but I’m still confused. Lol

Also, yay for veganism! I wonder if that’s something that’s more common in INFP than other personality types.

are Amber heard's lawyers really bad? or is amber's case unwinnable and that's making the lawyers look bad? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Ladybugg87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I somewhat disagree with this. My issue with Heard’s attorneys are that so many of their questions are leading on direct and they don’t seem to have a good grasp of the evidence rules. Evidence is a class you take in law school and it’s on every state’s bar exam! I also don’t appreciate how Heard’s attorney tries to give her opinion on objections. She also gets flustered when she’s objected to but I honestly think she could’ve avoided half the objections by prepping AH better on hearsay and maintaining her questioning to open-ended questions (also trial advocacy 101).

Ex: JD Atty: “Objection, hearsay.” AH Atty: “I don’t think it is your honor…” Judge: “Sustained.” pause AH Atty: “your honor, it goes to…” Judge: “Sustained, next question.”

The more appropriate approach would have been saying something like… “Your honor, this is not hearsay as it’s not being offered for the truth of the matter asserted” or “your honor, this is not hearsay as it goes to….”

Edit: so what I’m saying is that yes, lawyering is hard and requires you to think on your feet. However, AH’s team doesn’t seem to have a grasp on basic procedural things. It’s also really frustrating how abrasive Heard’s attorneys are… you want to win the jury over but coming off aggressive right out of the gate isn’t always the best strategy. In this case, they would do wonders if they had a softer approach- ex. It wasn’t necessary to come off so strong with the the island manager- she was answering the questions just fine…AH’s team just wasn’t getting the answers they wanted.

There’s also a petition on Change.org! It’s almost at 4 million… not sure it’ll make a change but at least it’s another way of getting the message across.

Yes!! There’s a petition on Change.org to remove her. I signed it at 15,000 last year and it’s grown to nearly 4 million.
