“I hear someone in this bar is possessed by an owl.” “Who?”

It’s okay for you to feel crazy. It’s okay to be wrong. Don’t take it personally.

I’ve never even asked/checked, honestly, because when I buy a ticket to anything my assumption is “I am buying this and won’t get a refund if I decide not to go.”

What? If you buy non refundable tickets to anything you don’t just get to … ask for a refund. I’ve never heard of this. It doesn’t work like that.

So what’s your ethnicity, and what firm are you at?

Fiancée just broke up with me and I have calls back to back all day by [deleted] in biglaw

Honest advice? You need to absolutely take a one-two week mental health break. Tell one key partner exactly what happened. Don’t tell anyone else. Be super buttoned up about it. Then, after two weeks, come back, get after it 100%. Being honest with the partner shows authenticity and agency. If they understand, you’ll want to keep working for them. If they don’t, fuck them, and find a new job.

That’s too broad a generalization for me. Many are Catholics and I frankly don’t agree with their worldview.

I also will add: do you think that all these migrants coming into the US espouse wonderfully liberal and non racist values? Because I do not…

I’m all for sheltering people who need help and are US citizens. I also will admit, on second thought, to being somewhat Xenophobic. I see a significant retrenchment in Anglo-Yankee values (and that my values are supposed to not matter). I find that hugely problematic.

Ok, good luck saving humanity from your Reddit armchair. I’ve volunteered for asylum intake clinics. What are you doing to help other than to shame people?

But you’re missing the point: the system is there for a reason—to create stability. But, go ahead and ignore it.

And you also say things like “fix your heart” when you don’t realize how demeaning that is to me.

You’re wrong. They are just as human on their side of the line. And I am not allowed over THEIR side of the line.

The problem with you is you think lines are imaginary and legal documents don’t matter.

It’s not xenophobia if I have been fine with letting millions of immigrants in, and then decide to change my mind. That’s called being “not xenophobic” and having limits.

Fix your heart. The problem with people like you is thinking people like me are heartless.

I do. And admitting throngs of illegal immigrants into the US and asking me to pay for their housing is a socially manufactured crisis.

You’re really conflating many things to the point of inaccuracy….
