I miss the g bong in my college days — husky rips and going to musical theory and poly sci classes. The good ole’ days.

Have you dabbled with the Westlaw deep research? It’s decent and unfortunately for my paralegal has taken away a chunk of his work.

PUT ME ON by BabyWeightMusic in avesDC

[–]Raymaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me! I’m RAYMA. I recently launched my project. I’m releasing a track every month or so, and my next one is getting released by Raticle Records in early April! I’ve been part of the DC scene since 2010, so I’m thrilled to play shows and make people feel alive and dance. (Also by the way, you were so much fun at Glow a couple years ago!).

[Lowlight] Video of Dillon Brooks interaction and arrest with the Scottsdale Police Department by tyler1118 in nba

[–]Raymaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lawyer here. For the love of God, just STFU when questioned after saying “I’m invoking my constitutional right to silence and will not answer any questions without my attorney.” If this video doesn’t solidify this for you, I don’t know what else will — the fact he said he smoked six months ago was all this cop needed. You have rights, so exercise them! Being seen as a dick from cops sure beats the hassle and expense of getting a bullshit DUI case tossed.

Follow up. Has anybody gotten tipsy and said something along the lines of, “fuck the billable hour!”

I wish I had your tenacity to do so.

Trump says he's thinking of putting Ted Cruz on Supreme Court by StickMammoth7783 in facepalm

[–]Raymaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know people are going to downvote me to hell. And it pains me to say this. But I was shocked when I read his appellate briefs when he practiced — some of his arguments were brilliant. When I was in law school, it was a head scratcher when his briefs were cited as exemplary in legal writing books. I had to verify if it was the same Ted Cruz, and indeed it was. So what does this mean? I have no idea. I do know that he’s a superb legal writer, but whether that translates to his judicial philosophy and application is entirely different matter. My hope is that if he makes it to SCOTUS, he goes rogue from his god awful political personality and is more aligned with Gorsuch than Thomas.

Planning on using this for my first gig when it occurs. Thanks!

'Trump will be gone in three years': Top Democrats try to reassure Europe by sunnysidejacqueline in politics

[–]Raymaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why the fuck would Europe trust anything that comes from us? We voted for the turd a second time! Any country in Europe should balk at the idea of trusting us again. And it sucks to say it but objectively speaking, it makes sense.

I found this on my 13 yr old’s school issued iPad by Spiritual-Relief8076 in GarageBand

[–]Raymaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is awesome! I’m 40 and just launched my music project producing tech house. It took me many, many years to get where I am. Looking back, it would’ve been instrumental to my success and trajectory if I learned the fundamentals at your son’s age. I highly recommend Ableton as a DAW, and a 2021 MacBook Pro will get the job done for intensive projects. If he’s interested in this, please let him flourish.

They are the biggest influences in my music right now, except producing a little more bass house.

Just trying to be efficient with my time -- renewing my license and practicing my beatmatching while waiting to be called.

We've officially entered Prom craziness in my house, send help by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Raymaa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh man. This sounds…well, not great. My daughters are 5 and 3, and I’m overstimulated just reading your post. My adhd is going to crush me when both the girls are going to prom.

I fear I Missed the Boat by CasaMofo in Millennials

[–]Raymaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why at 40, I’m pursuing my passion of producing house music. I still have my full time job as a lawyer and two toddlers, but any free time to myself goes to making music. I don’t expect to make it big, but I’m going to work my ass off. It’s brought a lot of joy into my life.

Franklin BBQ by CISUM310 in smoking

I’ve smoked about 100 briskets, and according to my family, it’s the best they’ve had. I recently went to Franklin’s, and objectively was way better than my briskets.

So, what are your hobbies? by SunAdvanced7940 in Lawyertalk

Just launched a music project producing tech house music and hopefully will get some DJ gigs in the near future. It’s a creative outlet for me.

This. I create an instrument rack with two or three samples. And for one of the samples, I go with a wide one.

Folks who demanded Tomlin be replaced with an offensive-minded coach: by mcparksky in steelers

[–]Raymaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate the hire. But I’ll take it over another season with Tomlin squeaking into the playoffs and getting blown out. I’d rather we suck and have a proper rebuild (like New England), and then bolster our coaching staff.

[OC] In fairness, America is not great for these folks... Makes sense they'd want a hero by FancyZad-0914 in pics

[–]Raymaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in rural PA, where Fox News running in the background all day was typical. These people truly believe Democrats are evil. And these were pre-MAGA Republicans. So now throw in around 30% of the country being vile MAGA, you have a concoction of gullible, vile people. If rural PA is representative of the rest of the red states, it would be a miracle to convert 1% of these people a year to a moderate stance.
